Dura-Pro Premium Turf Indoor/Outdoor Golf Mat. Bonus Tray + 3 Tees

First, it's helpful to know that most driving ranges typically use mats that are 5' x 5'. This can give you a reference point when choosing your mat. However, the ideal mat size for your home practice space should primarily depend on your height (or the height of the tallest person who will be using the mat). Here is a simple method to make sure you're picking the perfect size for your game When choosing the right golf mat, the material it is made from is a critical factor in determining durability and performance. Most golf mats are made from one of three materials: Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), or Nylon. If you are considering a competitive mat and the material of the mat is not being identified by the manufacture, it is suspect. Each material reacts differently to friction and heat generated when your club strikes the mat, this directly impacts the mat’s longevity. Here is the more scientific comparison of these materials: With the lowest melting point of around 220°F, PE mats will be the least durable. You will notice quickly a green residue on your clubs. PE golf mats will generally come with a lower price tag. However, this comes at the cost of durability. Note: Our commitment to performance and quality means you won’t find a PE Mat from us here at Five Star for these reasons. Offering a significantly higher melting point of about 320°F, PP mats are more durable than PE. This ensures a longer lifespan and better performance for golf mats made with this material. While more durable than a PE mat, the PP mat will be slightly less durable than a Nylon mat. PP mats offer a middle ground on durability and price. Depending on your anticipated frequency of use, PP could be the right mat for you. This yarn has the highest melting point at approximately 430°F, making nylon the best choice for durability. Nylon mats are built to withstand vigorous wear and intense heat, providing golfers with the longest-lasting option available. This means no residue on clubs and a longer lifespan with your mat. A good mat should mimic the feel of the club taking a divot from the fairway. Factors that impact this feeling are Pile height (how tall is the turf), Pad thickness and Pad density. In general, the taller the pile height, the thicker pad, and the less dense the pad the better the feel. 5 Star golf mats provide options for each price point. A summary of those options (good, better, best) is listed below.
