PERFECT PRACTICEPerfect Putting Mat - Official Putting Mat of Dustin Johnson

This is a very nice putting mat. As others have said before me, it did require a steam iron put over it to flatten it down but it wasn’t a big issue. (I believe they may have sorted this with the newer versions but can’t seem to find them in the UK) It looks and feels like it’s good quality and we like the way the ball returns back to your feet.

Well made, great fun and challenging. Bought this as a gift for a keen golfer and he loves it!

The media could not be loaded. Honestly the mat is great but not out of the box. Even the instructions state to steam it to flatten it. I took a towel and placed it over the mat and used an iron to flatten it out. Probably spent an hour total over 2 sessions to get it flat. Not ideal for something of this price. I had issues between 4-6 ft marker, if I placed a ball on the edge it would roll towards the centre, a little more work with the iron sorted this out which you can see in the photo. Luckily most of my issues were on the left side only (larger hole side) the right side flattened out very easily. The other part that needs alot of work is the end of the mat (furthest from the cup) due to how it's shipped it curves up high trying to roll back onto itself but again a fair bit of work with an iron sorted this out. No damage to the mat but I was always careful to place a towel on top before ironing at a medium temp, wouldn't recommend ironing directly onto it.My favourite aspect of this mat is the ball return, it allows you to maintain your position and prepare for your next putt.You need to position it well however since I found my floor is not level (hence the strange angle I've placed it at). Once you've got it prepped and located well it works a treat.Playing on carpet is manageable but of you have a long thin hallway chances are there will be a halfpipe effect and the edges are raised, the mat will also follow this profile so playing on some form on hard surface is your best option.Ball return works well every time but is subject to location again. If you place it down and the ground level slopes away from you, the ball won't return but this isn't a fault of the product. Doesn't affect rolling putts from what I've tested.Storage is easy, just loop the matt loosely around the ramp and it'll fit comfortably back in the box with some wiggle room.Set up is just as simple, fit the magnetic tracks if you want and you're good to go.I've been using it about a week now and I do feel its helped my putting accuracy and speed control. The lines really help to hone in on putting straight and even the branding can help with alignment of your putter.If I'm not mistaken this is the V2 of the mat, some of the amazon photos makes it appear to be the V5 mat. Latest version is V5 which can be bought from PGA superstore but its considerably more expensive due to shipping and customs from the state (£250ish full price). V5 should roll flat more easily from what I've seen from reviews.I contacted perfect putting directly but they currently don't ship to the UK. Would be good for Amazon to stock this one but only time will tell.4/5 - needs work out of the box but once you get passed that it is a great product.

Very pleased with this golf mat which is very to set up, quick to pack away, and works well. So far it has been used indoors only but would be great on the patio in warmer weather. Just one slight problem … how do we stop the dog from grabbing the balls as they head towards the hole!!!

It is as discribed so yes I like the putting mat.

Bought it as a present for my husband, he absolutely loves it and is happy that he can practice putting at home. Even I enjoy it :) Fast delivery, arrived earlier than expected.

I had to return the item as the mat was not useable as it was not level and lots of creases and slants in the mat. Very disappointing.

Thought I'd invest in a putting matt and decided to go with this.The fact that it rolls away nice and neat is great but...I've tried leaving heavy stuff on it. Using a steamer, iron, and even a hair dryer and it's still bumpy and creased. Not what I'd expect from a £130 matt. Kind of defeats the object, I want to be able to see how the ball rolls after I strike it etc. No use if the matts full of bumps and creases
