ABSTRACT:
A golf practice turf simulating mat which has a raised support frame (22) with a bottom panel (36) and one end open. A mat tray (38) is located within the frame and includes a set of casters (40) that roll on descending ramps (28) and (30) that are attached to the frame. When a golf ball (26) is hit from the mat, the combined mat and tray deflect downwardly, the mat slides forward partially off of the tray and the tray rolls down the ramps descending below the top level of the frame. A rebound retraction system and mat return apparatus return the mat and tray to their original position. A second embodiment replaces the casters with sheaves (82) mounted on axles (84) penetrating inclined slots (80) in the frame for the downward and forward directional orientation of the tray within the frame.
