The Golf Monster Mat

The Golf Monster Mat® ranks at the top of every professional's list for golf practice mats and driving range needs.

ORLANDO, Florida – Most amateur golfers want to and need to work on their game but having time to head to the driving range for a little practice, just doesn’t exist. When you do squeeze a session in, many times it turns into a session of just pounding balls. You are more interested in finishing the bucket than working on the fundamentals of a good swing.

If you are serious about quality practice, one of the best things you could do is set up a home practice station with a quality hitting mat and golf net. If you give yourself 5-10 minutes a day, without being rushed, it won’t take long for you to groove that swing into a picture-perfect swing.

With so many golf mats to choose from, how do you find the right mat? Not all golf mats are created equal.

There are many factors that should be considered, but the three biggest factors should be:

1.) Mat Size: one-piece, two-piece, or a mini hitting mat

2.) Does the mat mimic hitting off real grass and not give you Turf Shock (joint pain commonly caused by hitting off mats that have no give to the surface)

3.) Durability – will you get years of service without a loss in quality of the hitting surface?

With those factors in mind, I started looking for the best mat I could find for my home practice station…what I found was the Monster Mat.

The Monster Mat, for home use, comes in two one-piece sizes, 3’ x 5’ or 5’ x 5’. Both are reasonably priced, in fact less expensive than most of their competitors. I went with the larger 5’ x 5’ size.

The Golf Monster Mat is made in the USA and offers one of the finest hitting surfaces and is less expensive and longer lasting than other brands.

All Monster Mats have a 1 1/8″ Z-Pro fiber fortified hitting surface that features a premier shock system that virtually eliminates hand and elbow shock. The mat surface simulates natural grass by using crimped fiber & curved blades for the look and feel of natural grass. The fiber also has a non-crush composition that prevents worn-out spots or low areas in the mat after repeated use.

Made with a closed-cell support layer that enhances the real-grass feel that also prevents the mat from curling once it is laid out flat, the Monster Mat checks all the boxes for durability and long life.

When my Monster Mat arrived by UPS in a tightly rolled up shrink wrapped wrapper, my first thought was will this ever lay flat? To my surprise, there were instructions included that recommended I lay the mat out flat for a few hours to allow the mat to adjust to the temperature. This seasoning was described as a necessary step that would prevent the mat from curling and ensure mat longevity.

As eager as I was to try the mat out, I followed the instructions. I was amazed at how quickly the mat became completely flat. I mean completely flat, no hints that this piece of turf was ever rolled up.

I’ve been hitting off my Monster Mat every day now for over two weeks and have to say it is absolutely the best surface I have ever hit off of and is still flat as a pancake.

It’s hard to describe the feel of hitting a ball off of The Monster Mat. There is no false bounce, no turf-shock only instant real-feel feedback, just like hitting a ball out of real grass. In addition, there is no green residue left on your club. So many other mats after a few swings, the bottom of your club face is left with a green residue that doesn’t come off easily. With the Monster Mat, the green residue doesn’t exist, so no green club-head residue to clean.

Mat Maintenance

Rotate the mat a quarter turn once a month so that the mat receives even wear. Also, once every 6 months (or before storage), stand the mat up and power wash from approx. 18” away to remove all loose debris and dirt. This will help to prolong the life of the mat.
