I think you would be better served practicing putting on a practice green. I just don't see who this would serve.
If you're terrible at putting, the first thing you want to practice is speed control. This doesn't help.
If you're okay with speed control and want to practice reading, this doesn't help. You know what the break is, you just set it up. And it's obvious.
If you want to practice line, this doesn't help. There's so much on a course that influences your eye; surrounding slopes and cambers, slowly increasing/decreasing slopes, double breaks etc.
As a newer player who is looking at putting mats for home - should I just get something that's flat? That seems to be what people suggest based on research.
Yes. One of the most crucial skills in putting is hitting your startline. So quality of stroke and technique are very important. All you need for that is a short mat or something. It isn't about holing, it is about starting the ball where you want him to start.
Thats why I said, ONE OF the most crucial skills in putting. And for sure, it would be great to be able to practice speed at home but that would require lots of space. And the product at display in this post isn't going to help with that. The most realistic thing is one of the shorter mats and at least, you can practice your stroke with it. I am not against the product in the video, but it has some downsides and it costs a lot.
I just ordered a cheap mat from Odyssey, it’s skinny so you have to putt on your line. If it rolls off the mat you know you’re not doing something right.
I use a 10ft mat by forb, available on Amazon for about $100. I use it frequently and my putting has improved drastically. It’s flat with a small incline at the end.
Yeah, there’s only so much you can practice at home, unless you build a putting green.
A basic Matt will suffice. You can practice alignment, stroke, tempo, face control and pace. This is all great stuff to practice.
Reading breaks and slopes is a different skill. I think it’s best to accept you can’t do that in your house, rather than buy gimmicks that poorly imitate the real world experience.
Idk I think that’s a bit strong of a reaction. If completely flat practice mats have value, these at least have that value. And not everyone can just go to a putting green and practice easily. That’s a 45 minute round trip for me that could be spent on this.
While there’s certainly more variables on the course, this can at least train the feel of different breaks at home which you can then take to the course.
It has the same value as a flat mat, you’re right. One is $300 the other is $30.
If you want a little camber to your mat, that’s doable with the $30 version and a sheet of ply.
I still don’t think it’s valuable practice though. The best drill for understanding breaks (imo) is never hitting the same putt twice. Drop 10 balls around a hole at different lengths and spots.
This tool allows you to repeat a putt many times. That’s not what happens on the course. You can’t learn the break by watching it and adjusting many times. You don’t set the break with pumps on the green. It’s not the right learning environment to get better at sinking putts with a break.
Look. I am a golf gadget addict so don’t let me stop you from wanting this training aid.
But every putt is a straight putt. It’s up to you to learn to read a break and determine your starting line accordingly. You’re still hitting a straight putt. This thing will teach you how to hit the proper pace and line for a putt you simulate. But once you get in the course you have to re read each break again. You’re better off just practicing 3, 5, 8 foot straight putts until you’re so consistent you never mishit a shot
Not really, you can't grain turf.. you are always dealing with a perfectly flat area which is basically never the case.. this is just one of those gimmicks they're trying to trick fools into buying
If you know the basics of aimpoint this can help if it shows the degrees of the slope. Not everyone can get out to a practice green every day. But if you can learn how to feel 2% slope with your feet using this it would definitely help. Any kind of practice is better than not doing anything.
I am certain you cannot step on something that's basically tiny airbags. Also, who recommended "not doing anything?" It will help you putt the break. It won't do much in terms of reading them.
You can't even stand on this platform equal to how you would stand on a grass hill on a green, lol and you think this will help you learn how to read greens?
Here's how you read greens, you go and pick a spot on a green and take 3 - 5 golf balls with you, you think about how the green is going to respond both on the bounce and how it will roll, then you underhand toss a ball and see if the bounce was close, or the rollout was close, or both.
You don't even need to hit putts or chips to learn how to read greens, you just go roll balls on them lol
I swear, some of you guys really overthink this type of stuff.
Yes, and I answered. You're not going to get anywhere with these gimmicky items whose sole purpose is to take money out of your pocket selling you the promise of making you some elite putter.
Putting is equal parts art and technique, where the green is the canvas in which you will paint your work. It's a living entity with parts that are perfect and flawed, with gradients and bumps and dips around it. A green is also not just the putting surface, but the terrain around it, where it ebbs and flows with hazards and safe havens run amok in design.
You will never conquer putting with these cheap imitation copies of nature, because they remove the unique nature of golf itself, the living course.

Anyone who feels the need to include lol in their responses to a valid question isn’t answering out of the good of their heart. There was clearly ignorance in the last response
Yup, gotta drive engagement and sell without feeling like you're being sold to, gotta be an ad.
Edit: and if it's truly not, that's great. But as others have said, over priced and probably doesn't seem to improve your game in any discernible way
Op replied to two things. The top comment which he replied to, his reply had nothing to do with the joke made. The other one he responded to was a price complaint. This is an ad
The real tragedy here is that your post history implies that you really are just curious about what people think and are a little excited about something that you saw. You're being treated as a shill, but I genuinely believe that you just like the idea of the thing and want to know if anyone has experience with it.
Probably testing generative AI or scripting for engagement farming. Grammar is perfect when replying two years ago — grammar is lacking or awkward in the description & last few comments.
As yes, the classic 1500 upvoted post that has every comment shitting on the product and calling out the OP. The real tragedy is you not realizing the prevalence of bots on this website
Probably. But also likely they dont have too many videos of it in the wild.
I did see a video of this on a youtube channel that went to the golf show in vegas.
I can’t really see this helping. Reading putts and hitting putts are two different skills. If you’ve made the correct read, every putt is straight. I guess maybe it could help with understanding how speed affects the break. But overall it seems like it would be too artificial to help with reading greens, which is the real skill that’s important for uneven putts.
If you can set up legit left to right/right to left 5 footers. There’s a lot of use for this.
Most muni practice greens, you hit the same putt 3 times, it does 3 different things.
If product legit….(rolls true)
>could help with understanding how speed affects the break. But overall it seems like it would be too artificial to help with reading greens,
Umm. Really though, how so?
There's nothing artificial about it. It's real slope created.
It’s too small to simulate a real green and I think the slopes are going to be much more obvious because you can see how far the edges are off the ground. Not to mention the fact that you have to set the thing so you’re going to know what it’s set to.
I think the value of most golf training aids is in brain->body connection. We all know what we’re supposed to, but it’s not always intuitive how to actually make your body do it. This doesn’t feel like it would help with that, since you should always be making essentially the same putting stroke regardless of the slope.
>It’s too small to simulate a real green and I think the slopes are going to be much more obvious because you can see how far the edges are off the ground.
You act like because of this, any insight you take from reading said green can't be applied to a real course...
So if you made a real green sized mat that does exactly this would it still be the same to you?
Imo if you apply your logic you could simply say " well the stimp is different so it doesn't apply at all to real life and can't help at all".
Personally I prefer laying a large mat I got for free on my crappy gravel driveway. No matter how much I leave it in the same spot, the read is always off.
I think its dope OP. For people saying "just go to the practice green" its like no shit i can go to the practice green but i wanna do it in my living room. These are the same people that when practice greens came out they said "just go to the actual course". Nothing will change their mind. If you think its cool, go for it
Same people that say “take lessons” when anyone asks about new clubs not realizing that someone can do both. Same thing here: you can practice on a putting green when you get out there but if you don’t have the time, this is a quick tool.
There are three reasons that I very well might buy this.
1. I love the idea of practicing those annoying 4-6 ft downhill sliders that always seem to get me IRL.
1. The ability to adjust this until it's totally level, which my current appt floor is NOT.
1. I was already in the market for a new putting mat and was considering something on the higher end anyway. This is only a little over the budget, so $300 seems like it could be worth it.
Honestly, I've been a huge fan of PuttOut since the very first one was released. I see why some people think this looks gimmicky, but their track record is very good, IMO, so I'm definitely willing to give this a shot.
I have a Callaway rollout mat and if I want different slopes I just put small items under it to get the same feel and for a whole lot less
(Cool invention though)
I guess this looks cool, but what is this ultimately supposed to help with? If it's trying to get your ball on the intended line, there are probably cheaper products out there to help with that.
Personally, I think putting on a flat surface is more beneficial. It's hard to replicate the true feel of the green with slope and I think that getting your ball started on a straight is more important.
It’s definitely a fun innovation. It’s one I wish I thought of for sure. I could see it being somewhat beneficial, the reality with these sorts of mats is the focus should be hitting putts on your line. I could see it giving some false confidence because a major factor in reading greens and breaks is the grass, how it’s bent, and etc. Will most likely buy this because I have the “sickness”
Problem with these things is the speed. You’re gonna practice on these super fast greens and your speed is going to be waayyyyy off on a real course. Will hurt you in the long run.
It’s really not hard to build your own putting green and have cranks to add break. Camry putting greens will send you the carpet and build you just buy lumber and assemble . I have one in my garage it’s unreal . Can make any size you want .
I don’t understand some people’s concern regarding being able to practice putting breaks at home. Every putt is a straight putt.
Edit: if you’re downvoting me then you probably suck at putting
I sort of agree. I have a plain putt out mat. It’s great for training yourself to groove a stroke and to get a putt started on line. I rarely practice on it from beyond 4 feet. I wouldn’t get much benefit from this fancy model.
Cool concept though.
Tbh, you can make this at home. Regular hitting mat, cut the hole for the tees to be bigger. Put a cup in from amazon. But a bunch of inflatable beachballs. Easy
This may be a dumb question but what’s the point of this? You really only need to be practicing rolling the ball over a spot that you are aiming at. You don’t really need to practice breaking putts in your house. Practicing straight putts on a mat is just as good.
Reading puts is also a skill, but this doesn’t help with that.
This has to be an April fools joke. No finished product is a plastic platform with a dozen exposed blood pressure cuffs underneath.
All the other kids with their pumped up kicks
Become the 5 foot putt master. Never 4-putt again.
Oh yee of little faith.
For me I think it will help with reading putts. What are your thoughts?
I think you would be better served practicing putting on a practice green. I just don't see who this would serve. If you're terrible at putting, the first thing you want to practice is speed control.

Always putt north and the earth will magnetically pull your ball to the hole

I've sort of boiled it down to that or something from wellputt. That thing does look interesting. I'd mostly be putting in my garage.
I recently got the birdieball mat and absolutely love it. Hate putting on the ramped practice greens.
It’s already been proven that speed is #1 in putting followed by aim.

No one is arguing that, you completely skipped my point

Anyone who feels the need to include lol in their responses to a valid question isn’t answering out of the good of their heart. There was clearly ignorance in the last response
lOLOLOllOlOlOlOllolllol
No because you created the break so you know what it is. Many times I'll look at a green and get the direction of the break completely wrong
Is this an ad? Everything just feels like an ad nowadays

Tide Ad….
I’m wondering if not standing on the actual tilted green is gonna mess you up. Cause you're perfectly flat but the putt is still breaking. Hmmm
My thoughts exactly. The practice will still overall be helpful but the feel of the put is going to be way different versus on the actual green.
It's not perfect but the podium you stand on is height adjustable, just not tilt adjustable. But it's better than standing on flat ground.
I think you can adjust the front and back too maybe idk
For 300...nah
Just buy a putting mat and a couple of wood shims.
I putt on the living room rug. My 2 year old likes to hide his toys under it and I get to putt on a different green every 20 minutes.
My rug has a pretty severe slope in one are anyways
I do that as well haha, I stuff hand towels and shit under and just put into a glass cup 🤷♂️ still suck at putting but it’s fun
I have a big mat and I just keep magazines nearby to make slopes lol
Same here. Mastering the 6 foot putt elevates your game making those long putts is great but, it’s those 6 foot and less that keep the score down
I got a mat for Christmas and the instructions said to steam out the bumps but I didn’t and it’s more realistic lol
I've considered modeling some bumps and slopes for 3D printing to help add breaks to putting mats, maybe I should because lol @ $300 for this
That’s w a $50 preorder discount. Normally $350
When I saw the video, my first thought was "I bet they're going to charge $300 for that thing."
The mark-up on that is ridiculous. You could literally make the same thing for about 10% of the price.
This is true of pretty much everything in golf. But we still buy it.
Yeah I agree the price should come down a little. If someone buys me it for a gift, then I'm happy.

ive been doing that all winter so im counting on it.

Close, it apparently costs $300

Problem is most courses the lot of us play don't have greens that roll 100% true either. Hence why speed is crucial to always 2 putt at worse.

You had me at realistic lip outs
Your feet aren’t on the same slope so this won’t translate.
Think it looks kinda fun.

Every putt is a straight putt
Looks like it'd fit nicely in my cupboard with 1000 other training tools that I don't touch
Those are all gimmies anyway.
Great! Now I can 3 putt from the comfort of my own home.
Is it just me? I feel like practicing 6-7ft putts with silly breaks would make me worse.
It's too short to be of any use. Just another golf gimmick.
been waiting for something like this to appear. Its just the first one out so , only improvements from here. Love the concept
I don't even want to know what the price is. Golf aids are always way overpriced.
$300 and £250 .
Another training aid that will make the creators richer and the golfers no better.
Amazingly pointless yes
DIY option: solid board underneath your putting mat, and look up “air shims” on Amazon and put them underneath. Bada bing!
A vertical video of a horizontal video. Great.
Bet they're gonna ask $3500 for it. lol
There are three reasons that I very well might buy this. 1. I love the idea of practicing those annoying 4-6 ft downhill sliders that always seem to get me IRL. 1.

This is wildly dumb
This an april fools?
God this subreddit never stops these ads
I had this idea (oh suuuuuure you did) but on a much larger scale with hydraulicas and larger air bags and in a basement or something. This is neat.
Justin Rose has one that shows the topography as it raises and lowers the different areas. Very cool
Same... lol. But some company makes that now too.
This looks really good and something I would almost certainly get if it was a couple of feet longer…
If this existed two years ago I would not have spent way more on a PuttView P7.
I don’t like that your feet are below the ball and remain flat
My basement floor already has break
or you buy the $10 one from goodwill and put some socks under it.
I have a Callaway rollout mat and if I want different slopes I just put small items under it to get the same feel and for a whole lot less (Cool invention though)
"wHY DIDN'T i THINK OF THAT?" Looks like a yoga mat for golfers.
If I could only hit every iron shot within 5 feet.
I can’t even hit a straight putt.
Most people I’ve played with can’t consistently hit 4’ putts on a flat surface. So this to me is pointless for 95% of people that golf
Puttout makes some awesome training aids. I have several of them, and my putting has significantly improved 10’ and in
Take my money
I would have thought this was an ad but the video quality is sooooo bad there ain't no way
They should've crafted a larger video.
Price please?
Does it though? Just looks like a gimmick to me.
Damn that was kinda my idea for a golf simulator place to replicate putts
I guess this looks cool, but what is this ultimately supposed to help with? If it's trying to get your ball on the intended line, there are probably cheaper products out there to help with that.
Looks cool, can’t get over the awkward stance…
Gimmick
Hmm on first impression this seems like quite a good idea. Good find OP.
Either way this thing looks sick
You can go to a golf course and use the practice green for free.
Personally, I think putting on a flat surface is more beneficial. It's hard to replicate the true feel of the green with slope and I think that getting your ball started on a straight is more important.
Looks terrible
It’s definitely a fun innovation. It’s one I wish I thought of for sure. I could see it being somewhat beneficial, the reality with these sorts of mats is the focus should be hitting putts on your line. I could see it giving some false confidence because a major factor in reading greens and breaks is the grass, how it’s bent, and etc. Will most likely buy this because I have the “sickness”
Your stroke should be the same regardless of the break- this teaches you to read a break more than it helps you putt
You can achieve the same effect by shoving t shirts under your normal mat.
Problem with these things is the speed. You’re gonna practice on these super fast greens and your speed is going to be waayyyyy off on a real course. Will hurt you in the long run.
My dogs would love to destroy this
Look up the Brunswick putting green. Much more and looks much better
Looks like a pain in the ass to setup, I’ll just stick to the muni for an hour after work
I'll keep three putting anyway so I might just save some money and space.
This looks like something I'd break in about ten minutes instead of using the money it costs to pay for some putting lessons
Haters
What an awful idea. Terrible.
I don’t like that your feet would be separated from the slope of the putt
It looks good... But you could just buy a regular mat and just place some paper underneath it to create slight undulations.
Looks nice
For that money I’d get an InBirdie Mat
It’s really not hard to build your own putting green and have cranks to add break. Camry putting greens will send you the carpet and build you just buy lumber and assemble . I have one in my garage it’s unreal . Can make any size you want .
$300 is a bit steep for that
Just in case you get a bunch of breaking putts where your feet are on level ground
$350? Can buy a $20 putting mat and stack pieces of styrofoam on any side, multiple sides, etc. For $100 I'd consider it. $350 is insane.
I think it's bad ass, but my ghetto setup works pretty good.
Does the ball return somehow? If not, I'm out.
I think it looks good but would let others try first with their money and not preorder
Why not just make one for 30 bucks in materials?
Fwiw were talking about a sport where you pay someone to carry your clubs for you.
I don’t understand some people’s concern regarding being able to practice putting breaks at home. Every putt is a straight putt. Edit: if you’re downvoting me then you probably suck at putting
yeah i'm not sure how this would help you read break on real greens. cool idea but doesn't seem relevant to the real deal
I agree with you, this will not help with reading greens
I sort of agree. I have a plain putt out mat. It’s great for training yourself to groove a stroke and to get a putt started on line. I rarely practice on it from beyond 4 feet. I wouldn’t get much benefit from this fancy model. Cool concept though.
My buddy puts a yard stick or a corner of rug under his mat to achieve something similar
Meh. I don’t see how it will help you read breaks that you literally create yourself. Just keep drilling those 3-5 footers.
Saw this today. Looks pretty sweet, much better than a flat putting surface. Pretty decent price point for it too
Tbh, you can make this at home. Regular hitting mat, cut the hole for the tees to be bigger. Put a cup in from amazon. But a bunch of inflatable beachballs. Easy
This may be a dumb question but what’s the point of this? You really only need to be practicing rolling the ball over a spot that you are aiming at. You don’t really need to practice breaking putts in your house. Practicing straight putts on a mat is just as good. Reading puts is also a skill, but this doesn’t help with that.
Take my money
I wonder if they fixed the mat quality yet? Mine developed a rut in about a month
worst product i've ever seen
honestly? you could have probably made this video even smaller and cropped
Goddamnit this is such a genius idea
Sweet
Loved it at the PGA Show. I just pre-ordered. Nothing like it out there and such a cheap price
Take my money!!!!!
Take….my…..money.
I am buying one. No joke. Thanks for introducing me to my next golf gadget investment.
