ABSTRACT:
A pivoting golf mat assembly is disclosed which will provide a visual indication of the path of the club head during a golf swing involved in hitting a golf ball from the golf mat. The golf mat assembly has an anchor plate which is stationarily mounted on a support surface and to which is pivotally attached a golf mat having a hitting surface from which a golf ball can be struck. A plurality of support feet are mounted on the underside of the golf mat so as to slidably support the golf mat on the surface. Movement of the club head during the golfer's swing as it strikes a golf ball off the hitting surface of the golf mat will cause pivoting movement of the golf mat relative to the anchor plate should the path of travel of the clubhead not be parallel to the intended path of travel of the golf ball. The golf mat remains in the position after the ball has been struck enabling the golfer to view the golf mat and quickly ascertain any defects in the path of travel of the clubhead.
