ABSTRACT:
A putting stroke developer is comprised of a target element that may be used with and without a putting surface element. Common to all embodiments of the inventive target element is the fact that the target element has a base surface that rests upon a putting surface as well as a vertically oriented, arcuately curved, relatively hard golf ball rebounding surface designed to produce a rebound that will indicate the accuracy of the line and force of a putt relative to the likelihood that the putt would have successfully landed within a regulation golf hole, and that the target element has sufficient mass to resist displacement, in an unsecured state, under the effect of a putted golf ball impacting against the rebounding surface. A putting surface element preferably simulates a putting green surface, and advantageously, is in the form of a mat to enable it to be rolled or folded for compact storage and transport. The mat has placement indicia for locating the target element thereon, and also has evaluating indicia for providing more accurate observational feedback as to the quality of a putt, both as a function of distance and angle of rebound.
