Let us know how it works out. I'd invest in lessons but since its winter and you said you don't want to drive out to the course then i'd say go for it! happy holidays ;)

Check out the Amazon reviews on that Putt n' Hazard system, as it was ranked a strong 1 out of 5 (1 is the worst score).

Amazon Page for ClubChamp Putt n' Hazard

It is odd to have a simulated water hazard and bunker inches from the hole, unless that was their clever way to explain having ball returns for missed putts so close to the hole.

There's another putting mat-system that allows adjustable breaks by Extreme Greens, but they are a little more expensive (from $459 and up).

2011 Goals:
* Improve club-head speed to 90 mph with the driver
* Ensure increased speed does not compromise accuracy
* Prevent overextending on the back-swing (left-arm is bending too much at the top)
* Relax arms initially at address ( too tense)* Play more full rounds (failed from 2010)

Other than the mat and net I would say the other items are a waste of money and provide absolutely no benefit.

- Tru-break: I have never used this, but I can guess it will not roll anything like a break on a real green. I think you are better off with something like the "boomerang" putting mat. I have one and it works great. I think I paid $30-$40...

- Teego: Really??? Just use your club and rake another ball in.....FREE

- Chipping net: Just chip to a stick or some other object in the yard......FREE

You would probably be better off putting on the carpet. But the mat and net are a good idea.

A quote from Kris
...is that college bball really isn't "lower tier". The better teams have their rosters filled with guys who could play in the NBA. hell, guys used to come straight from high school to the NBA. I really don't think there's much of a difference skill-wise between the two.

FYI, I bought a net off of eBay I think for around $70. It was brand new and has worked fine. $160 seems fairly high. I would buy a cheaper net and spend more money on a quaility mat.

    • I have an update… I don't have much of a response, because the fact that they would ADD the numbers for the lead and trail shoulder together… I mean, wow. I was giving them too much credit. Nobody would think to assume they were doing THAT. That's beyond comical. One of the biomechanists I talked to put it this way: "So if I squatted down and went from 180 to 90 deg knee angle, then I would say 180 deg range of motion because I have two knees?" I'd type more (maybe), but honestly, I'm laughing a bit too hard. 🤣 Update: Mini Manavian blocked me on Instagram, so I cannot see his post showing Bryson with about 50° of range of motion (with a driver) from P4 to P7, and 75° only if you go out to the mid-follow-through. What a terrible loss for me. 😉 
    • Thanks, interesting to read. The swing is definitely very timing dependent. I hit it consistently I guess but consistently bad.    
    • I've shot 91-74 on the same day before. Couple of years ago played a two round tournament on Bethpage Black. I shot 72 in the first round and 90 in the second. First round I played very well. Second round I played okay, but had about 5 shots that hit the lips of bunkers and bounced down into them. A couple of those wound up in footprints - I was unamused - and I failed to get them out. Anyway - lots of bunkers and my bunker play isn't great and then add a couple of footprints and me getting pretty tired and it added up to a lot.  Only you can really tell though what's causing the variance. It might be that your swing is very timing dependent and when it's timed well you play well and when it's not then it goes all over the place. In that case, some lessons and working on your swing could be the key. If it's more that you tend to feel like you hit it fairly consistently, but you have days where the shots come off and days where they don't, then that's more likely a course management issue. If that's what you need to work on, then you could read Lowest Score Wins and build a plan of attack based on that.  Rest assured though that a pretty big range from high to low is fairly common. Even PGA Tour players often have 18-20 shot spreads from best to worst rounds in a season. It's a common affliction among golfers.
