I set up a mat and net in an unfinished storage room last winter. Boss didn't seem to care but the "girls" were bitter so I took it down.

I putt in my office on the weekends sometimes

Ditto. I used to take my putter to work.... Something tells me I only got away with it because I used to do oil changes on the boss's Porsche/install the exhaust on his Maserati though...

But hey, it was nice not missing 3 footers that year.

We used to putt in the office a LOT.....Our boss put the brakes on that though. It did improve my speed control a lot. I was happy with that.

I used to manage a golf shop, we first started this in the winter. Midwest winters + golf shops = 1 or 2 customers per day. Originally we used the foam balls, but then the owner went to the PGA Merchandise Show and we broke out the balata's (dating myself here eh?).

Let's just say that after a hole in the bathroom door and a snapped Wilson Staff RM 7 iron shaft due to an unfortunate clothing rack incident, we curtailed the indoor course antics.

I will however say that nothing is quite as exhilerating as lofting a balata from a thin carpeted lie over a cash register and into a garbage can after a fortunate bounce off of a staff bag.

    • Context:  I am on vacation, so I don't have access to my indoor practice room, and I won't for about a month. Day 12 (August 22).  Today's weather was not one where even I was going to be outside.  For whatever reason, I didn't do the putting drill today.  There was a drill I remembered from this site (the article was something akin to "five things you can do to improve that don't require talent") that involved having an iron along the back from stance, moving to backswing and holding, then moving to forward swing and holding.  So I did that for five minutes today. I also spent 90 minutes at the gym;  my main motivation for getting stronger is golf related (and I really should get back to Fit For Golf  specific workouts;  I'm not sure when I lost that habit, a poor choice on my part that I did).  Funny story, I spent 20 minutes on the Stairmaster today at the gym (the rest was weights and rests), a device I started with shortly after I took up golf because I read something about it in a Butch Harmon book.  I should be following FFG Mike's fitness advice though, not some memory of someone else.  
    • Day 8 8-22 Worked on backswing length and getting some speed in backswing. Recorded swings. Was happy with practice session tonight. 
    • Day 325 - 2025-08-22 Practiced for almost an hour after cleaning my cabinets to account for the new GEARS cameras and helping @OBlum for a bit. Exaggerating the same old things.
    • Yea, faster greens = shorter putting stroke. You can be more accurate.  Really, I think people who struggle with distance control struggle just as much on slow greens as fast greens. I've seen people blast putts 10-FT past the hole on 8 or 9 STIMP as much as 11-12 STIMP.  I prefer faster greens. Usually means the putting surface is better and again, shorter putting stroke.
