Golfguru Golf Mat, 5x4ft/5x5ft Dense Elite Golf Hitting Mats Practice with 10 Balls, 9 Tees, Heavy Duty Artificial Hitting Training Matt for Backyard Driving Chipping Indoor Outdoor Simulators

I bought this mat for my wife so she could practice in our backyard hitting balls against the net. She uses it three times a week and so far so good with no ripping issues over the past month.I don’t expect it to last long as it’s under the sun most of the day and it’s just to help her to practice. I would definitely recommend.

I bought this mat for an indoor simulator. The mat is very well built, super heavy duty. I am so glad I made this purchase, makes golfing in the garage fun and easy.

Solid mat. Easy to flatten from the burrito it’s shipped as. Turf doesn’t stick to your clubs which is nice. Some early signs of wear, so make sure you rotate the mat and avoid hitting in the same spot repeatedly.

Works well. Good quality for $. Does need extra securing as blows over with our blustery north east wind but most will. Second one purchased so I don’t have to move it when snow birding.

This mat really is much more durable than others. I’ve probably take over 1500 shots on it now and while I can see where I hit, the turf has not worn down thin or gotten hard. If anything the fibers just get kind of soft from repeated strikes, and can still positions the ball well. It has a good weight, but does shift slights when taking full shots, which i just applied som outdoor mounting tape under it to fix. It is great to hit off of, and feels as nice as hitting mats that are 3x the price.

Excellent quality and very durable. Have used it for over a year now and is in great shape!

Nice size and thick. Well worth the purchase

The tee hole area ripped apart within weeks. Really not easy to place the ball around it because they have 3 holes. I placed the ball in between 2 holes and about 4 inches away expecting the area would be weaker but it didn't help. I thought 'ok I should expect it to be weaker' so I moved the hitting area further away and it held up until after a month the grass and the pad seperated and started to thin out and eventually come apart. Around this time I'm also noticing fading on where I was standing. Also started to notice build up of fine green dust on the launch monitor and the clubs. Vacuuming the mat didn't help since the dust is generated from hitting the mat. For that reason alone, I wouldn't use this indoors but unfortunately I have the sim setup indoors. I was already done with both ends of the mat within a month of use. Instead of throwing it away I decided to cut them into 5 strips and turned it into an insert mat so I can swap it out. I would say each strip has lasted about 1000 iron swings before the pad separates. And to those or the seller claiming that the separation is from cutting it, remember that I cut them because it was already separating where the holes were and noticed it was about to separate on no-hole side.Probably good enough for use as standing mat only and not a hitting mat. I don't see this mat lasting more than 6month as a hitting mat for the sim. I say for sim because the LM requires for the ball to be in a set area and this mat came apart in about a month for me. For use without the sim, I can see this lasting longer only if you keep moving the hitting spot. However, I imagine the mat will still come apart and will need to be rotated and thrown away within a year. Considering that the range grade mats last for years in outdoors with a lot more use, I don't think $100 for this is worth it when you can have a range grade for 400-500 IF you are serious about practicing golf.TL;DR - don't buy this or any other cheap mat if you are looking for a hitting mat and you tend to downswing.
