I would guess something like this is out there, just surprised it took me so long to run into it. I like that you can turn it to get a hilly lie and ball below or above feet. Probably need to keep the surface springy to keep ball from rolling off. About $3K. I'm more uncomfortable with downhill shots but they come off better if that makes any sense. Prefer above feet over below. Wonder how hard this thing is to carry around and transport.

Ive been doing the same thing for years by putting an old shoe or something under a hitting matt. Its actually how i thought myself how to hit off of downhill lies, which i used to really really struggle with. Save yourself a couple G's and do it low tech.

Was this on Fore Inventors Only?

And @nevets88, balls only roll away at (70/stimp) % slope.

Not what I’m saying. I think they had this on that show.

This one?

Looks like a different guy. Amazing how marketing and video has changed in 10 years.

So it's (the current one) 85 pounds, there are two models, 8 degrees, 4 degrees. Here's how it goes on a cart.

Here's how you turn it and set it up for grass vs hard surface.

Yeah, this is definitely an improvement over Hillshot.

Eh. Yeah, same idea. I don't know how much of an improvement it is… at $2,575.00. :-)

Nothing you couldn't really do with a round piece of plywood and a board you use to change the angle. For $2500+ you could make a pretty good one of your own.

Yeah, it's pricey. I wonder if there are already plans out there for one.

      Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.

      Favorite TV Show(s)

      Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.

      My Swing (TN94z)

      By TN94z ·

      A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
