    3 out of 5 stars Interesting but too small for regular practice   November 17, 2008
    Jorge (Florida)
    I give it a 3 star rating just because the mat is so small that is not very forgiving if you're just trying to warm up. On the other side if you're good enough that you can practice with this without missing a shot then you don't really need it.. :)


    1 out of 5 stars horrible product. looks great. works horribly   October 8, 2008
    good golfer
    so i wanted a mat to hit on with my net cause i was ripping up the lawn and this one looked great. i read the bad reviews and i figured they were bad copies. well i was wrong. after 4 days of usage the turf started ripping. dont get caught up in this great price.

    instead i spent a little more money for a much better mat.



    1 out of 5 stars falls apart - NO STARS- no option for that   August 30, 2008
    Daniel D. Bowles (FL)
    this item literly fell apart after less than 1 week
    also they sent 2 and charged me shipping to send the second back or be charged for two



    2 out of 5 stars Not durable...   May 31, 2008

    I purchased the Launch Pad last week and the first time I took it out to use it the grass, from the impact of the club, alread began to seperate. The grass mats are only very lightly gluded to the rubber mat and should have been threaded into the mat to make it more durable. I did like the two levels of turf to hit from but the mat is poorly made.
