This PVC framed chipping net presents a highly visible 4" x 4" (1,2 m x 1,2 m) target for short game practice.Golf"s top teachers all advise their students to spend 60-80% of their practice time on the short game,but, without realistic targets, pitching and chipping practice does not give adequate feedback necessary to help players develop the consistent feel necessary for real improvement.The old style chipping nets (basically the size of a waste basket) are unrealistic as targets, since they don"t allow much success, while the 16 square foot target of the PVC Chipping Net is useful even for long pitches up to 40-50 yards.
