Anyone heard of this? 
 

seen it advertised quite a bit recently and normally with these kind of ads that pop up I’m usually sceptical, especially as it’s on a ‘special half price offer’ which is has been for about 2 months now as well. 
 

would appreciate any feedback on it if anyone uses it, as my putting is definitely the biggest issue in my game at the moment.

I have one. It’s okay. You need a really level floor, of course.

I've got one, it's solid. Built pretty nice for a practice putting mat, though not as nice as I'd wish it were, if that makes sense.

Thanks gents.

Was considering one for work to have a little practice at lunchtime a few minutes a day but for the price will give it a miss at the moment.

Yeah, that price is quite a bit.  I also debated getting a putting matt for home so I'd have something more entertaining than a ruler for when I'm actually hitting putts at home and not doing a drill to work on the stroke.  I even used a roll-away one at someone's house yesterday.   But there are prices I don't want to spend and I worry that the less expensive ones might do me more harm than good.

I’ve seen some for £30 but the reviews are that they’re very cheap and nasty so not found a reasonable alternative as of yet. 
 

If I found a decent enough one for say £50-60 I’d be all over it, but at double the cost I’ll want to see it and have a go on it first ideally.

      Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.

      Short Game Chef (Parker McLachlin) Short Game Videos

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
