2

Replaceable contact surface for hundreds of reps

3

Works with irons and wedges

4

Portable — use at the range or at home

How It Works

Place the board on the ground and hit shots off the textured surface. The club leaves a visible mark showing exactly where your low point is relative to the "ball line." If the mark is behind the line, you're hitting fat. If it's on or past the line, you're compressing the ball correctly. Instant, objective feedback on every single rep.
