Range mats vs grass

    Hitting off mats just doesn’t translate the same for me as real grass, and I’m starting to feel like it’s actually hurting my on-course performance. Mats seem to let me get away with slightly fat contact where the club just bounces into the ball and still produces a decent shot, but on the course those same swings turn into chunks or inconsistent strikes. I’ll leave the range feeling solid, then it doesn’t show up when it matters. Curious if anyone else in the Team Titleist community has dealt with this and what you’ve done to make mat practice more effective or better transition to real turf before a round?

    I always prefer hitting off the turf, but when I have to, I don't mind the mats. That's because here at PGA Golf Club we have arguably the best mats I've ever seen These mats are the closest thing to turf you can get and they are changed annually. But I understand that not everyone has access to mats of this quality.
