ABSTRACT:
Golf swing training mat for highly authentic practice includes a support surface; a standing surface; a hitting surface separate from the standing surface and removably attachable to the support surface and having an area thereof designated as a front hitting area, which is made of a material that nearly looks and gives a feeling of real grass and that is not easily destroyed by repeated swings of a golf club striking the material--preferably, the front hitting area being present in conjunction with an overhang, or a generally open underpass; and a follow through notch ahead of the hitting surface, in part defined by an obliquely-angled edge, generally obliquely angled to and abutting a front edge of the hitting surface, which envoids an area such that a golfer when swinging an iron can properly follow through downwardly after striking a golf ball into the downwardmost portion of the swing when the ball is struck near the front hitting area, and which allows for the golfer to follow through without striking the obliquely-angled edge segment. Thus, the golfer can be encouraged in realistic practice from a durable mat, especially with iron shots, and bounce-back or shock can generally be eliminated. And so, numerous, fluid iron strokes can be practiced generally without mat-caused interruption. A tongue and tee slot, a rubber tee height adjusting hole and cavity, etc., may be present.
