CHAMPKEY Heavy-Duty Golf Hitting Mat - Swing Path Feedback Golf Practice Mat - Ideal for Indoor and Outdoor Training

I really like this mat. It does what it’s supposed to. I’ve been using it everyday for about 2 weeks. The white painted lines overlayed on the velvet material do start to wear almost immediately. I didn’t have super high hopes for this, based on reviews and price (not that $30 for a piece of velvet tacked to a rubber doormat is a bargain - but respectively), but I can say I’m satisfied with my purchase. So far the green velvet material has held up well after daily use. I was able to correct an out to in swing issue I was encountering and helped me with ball first contact. It hasn’t ripped as it has for some. I personally didn’t have any issue hitting balls off it (balls rolling off may). However, when I do hit balls off of it I do so very sparingly. I try to use clean golf clubs, use it indoors or in a clean area in my yard and I try to simply skim the surface in order to see the shape/orientation/start of the divot I would be creating. So far it’s done exactly what I hoped it would. It has gotten some dirt stains on it that sort of mat the velvet, but I used a little diluted dish soap and it came right out and back to the original appearance. It’s not a perfect product, but I think if you treat it with a little care it should last and help you for some time.

Got this to practice my low point and check on my path. The material (whatever it is) shows both very well, and easily clears with a light wipe back in the other direction. My only gripe is that it does not stay in one place. Even when just practicing short pitch shots, it’ll slide forward. This has been the case on both our low pile carpet and vinyl plank kitchen floor. It’s not a deal breaker by any means, but it does shorten my practice time because I get tired of having to constantly move it back and adjust it. Finally, I’ve seen other reviewers complain about its durability. I can’t really comment on that because of how lightly I use mine (only one or two full swings every once in a while to get a quick check on my low point and path, and otherwise only half swings for practice and/or chips and pitches). But for what I’ve used it for, I think it will last several years at least.

The replaceable mats are nice but I accidently left mine in the yard and the sprinklers went off. I pushed the water out and dried it in the sun. Still works and still on my first mat after a few months. Been left in the sun. The turf has taken a beating as well. Good product for the price.

Fantastic learning tool and with the replacement mats is a no thinking decision!! BUY BUY BUY!

I purchased this mat to replace an older one I had been using for a year (different company). I've had this one only 5 days and it already broke through the surface, rendering it useless. Even before the it broke, the mat was difficult to read after a "divot" because the surface wouldn't return to normal and still appeared darker no matter how much I tried to wipe it back. I guess it MIGHT be okay for long irons or a wood, where the swing is more shallow, but anything with a steeper swing is going to chew through this thing in a few swings. Aside from lessons, a divot board is the most valuable tool someone can have. Unfortunately, this one isn't it. Spend a bit more money and get a good one. Lesson learned.

First: don’t take full power swings. Use this to work on your swing at 50-70% power. I don’t mean don’t make a full swing, but don’t go at this like you’re at the range or course. It will degrade much faster. Second: something to take into consideration is that this “raises” the hitting surface above your feet. I’m not sure how I feel about this, but assuming you understand this you can analyze the impact and divot zone more accurately. The “good” contact looked fat to me, but thinking about the amount it raises your club it makes sense. Third: I wouldn’t use it too much. I practiced with this for a bit before I started going to the range this season. It’s early but my findings so far is that I seem to be catching my shots a tad thin. Not bad thin, more like a clip off the ground. I think it helped shake off the fat ones, but I’d practice only a little to help promote hitting a little thinner. I’d worry that too much practice on this would result in developing a less solid strike. I’d always have problems with fat shots when the season started. This has helped thin them out, but real practice should occur on the range. Reasonable cost, can help correct fat shots, but I am not going to rely on it too much. A few warm ups (2-3) per day tops.

My opinion. Great idea, good product. But I must find a consistent way to make contact with the ball, first and then address the divot issue.

This mat is heavy, seems well made (except the markings), and mostly stays in place when using without anchors due to its weight. I've taken about 15 swings on it and it has marked my swing through each time which is wonderful. A couple were on target but most were slightly outside in which is what I thought based on my play and my father telling me. I had one swinging with my 7 iron that hit the mat just behind the ball mark which did move the mat about an inch. That swing cracked the markings just behind the ball placement mark. That being said, I wonder how many more hits like that will eventually rip off the markings on top? This is the only problem I see with this product or it would have received 5 stars after about 15 swings of the club.

Does what it's designed to do.

Muy contento, lo recomiendo.

Very poor quality for a very high price. This happened after a few days of swinging on the mat. One thing to note is that I am a young male that has a high swing speed, which is why I bought the most expensive mat. I asked the seller for a refund and they only offered 50% off and for me to keep this junk. I see they have since raised the price haha wow how rude to the poor unsuspecting customers. Let this be your warning to just go and buy the cheaper versions out there. This one is not worth it unless they decide to realign the price with the quality.
