I haven't used the compression board that's being sold commercially but I have used something similar. Works great if you are trying to teach yourself how to hit down on the ball and not flip.  I couldn't see spending $40 for something you can easily make yourself.

Here's a link to Martin Hall using something similar made out of plywood. Fast forward to the 5:30 mark

For me, I just use a small cutting board placed about 3" behind the ball. Since it's plastic it doesn't mar the club if you hit it. $2 well spent.

Has anyone here purchased one of these?  I was originally in the hunt to purchase a lie board, to practice on... But came across this and thought it was a better training aid.

We use a plywood board with a slot cut out. It doesn't hurt - just put it farther away if you're having a hard time avoiding it.

      How to Remove Verdigris From Black Burner 2.0 Irons....

      By Archie Bunker ·

      You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.

      Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By Elmer ·

      I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
