Ok, I know a mat isn't the best thing for hittin' balls, but when you live in the Northeast, there's no other option during the cold season.

Anyone have any recommendations for mats? I've seen a couple on-line that tout "real-feel" fibers, and a couple of ranges near me have some decent mats...I'd like to get one for my house...

Thoughts?

The Vijay Singh mat. You can hit off different angles as it slopes. Regardless if you're a "picker" or someone who likes to divot, you will receive feedback. I think it's around $200. I've hit off it and it is fantastic.

I've just hit of the convention mat-on-concrete. However at another range near me they have a very springy board that covers up hitting inches in front of the ball, its rediculous. Be careful what you buy- you don't want it being forgiving.

I was out on the cape this weekend hitting balls at Hyannis Golf Club (had to get away from the ice and snow). They had these ProTurf mats. I thought they were a pretty good hitting surface. If you mishit the ball, you know it. If you hit it pure, you know it. I had no complaints. Like you said, living in New England you take what you can get.

in the bag:
driver-titleist D2 10.5* w/aldila nv shaft
3-adams speedline fast 10 w/aldila shaft
hybrid-titleist 585 17* w/aldila shaft
irons-titleist 735cm w/ttdg s-300 shafts

wedges-cleveland 588, 53* and 60* w/ttdg shafts

putter-scotty circa 62 #1, gun metal finish
