Outstanding Divot Board Accessory
The Best Training Aid For Indoor or Outdoor Practice
The Divot Board
This is the most useful ball striking development training aid that I own.

Outstanding Divot Board Accessory
For simplicity, all advice on actual swings or drills is provided from a right handed perspective.
Full Disclosure: when you buy from Divot Board I make a small commission, but for what it's worth - I would recommend this product wholeheartedly whether I received a commission or not.
I use it all the time personally, indoors and outdoors, and I use it at almost every lesson that I conduct. It's the most useful training aid that I possess.
The only thing that I thought needed to be improved with the Divot Board was the fact that it moved too much after the strike when I used it on my driveway, and that you had to choke down a bit on your club when swinging at the board to level out your swing plane.
Neither was a big deal, especially so since at lessons I always use my Divot Board off a grass surface. For my personal practice at my residence however, I essentially have no grass so necessity was the mother of invention for me.
I made a Divot Board hitting station for use on my driveway, basement, and garage, out of two heavy thick rubber stance pads with a cutout for my Divot Board, and it works great.
At my lessons I also use a Fiberbuilt Golf Flight Deck Practice Station.
I never heard back from either of them, but apparently someone listened.
Divot Board just came out with an outstanding accessory for use with their Divot Board, the Divot Board Turf Mat
- 4’ wide x 5’ long
- ½” foam base and ½” turf for a realistic, cushioned feel
- 3 rubber tee slots at different heights for hitting a variety of clubs
- Non-slip base for secure placement during swings
- Built to withstand up to 150,000 shots (when hitting off the mat itself)
- Perfect for both left and right-handed golfers
- Includes 3 rubber tees (small, medium and large)
- If you don't already have a
Divot Board
buy one, its the most useful training aid you'll ever own.
- If you are only going to use it outside, you may or may not need the Turf Mat
- If you intend to also use it off a flat, hard surface, indoors or outdoors, get the Divot Board and the Turf Mat.
Buy it, you'll really like it.
