The dad who hits balls in the backyard all week and still cannot get out of the rough on Saturday
What it is
Oversized heavy-duty synthetic grass mat for practising tee, fairway, iron and rough shots, with three rubber tees.
Why we picked it
Most home mats simulate a perfect fairway lie, which quietly trains a swing that collapses the moment the ball sits down in rough. Having both surfaces lets him rehearse the harder lie, and the heavy backing is what stops a thin mat on concrete wrecking his wrists.
