Choosing an Indoor Putting Green That Works With Your Golf Simulator

An indoor putting green in a simulator room has a harder job than one in a spare room. It shares the floor with a hitting mat, a launch monitor and an impact screen, and every foot it takes up is a foot the swing can't use. The useful question is less "which green putts best" and more "which green fits the floor I actually have."

The market sorts into four clear types. Roll-out mats you can store after a session suit a small or shared room. Modular greens fit a dedicated corner beside the bay. Turf that becomes the simulator floor makes sense when you are building or replacing the bay floor. A projection green is the premium option that shows the line of a putt and tracks the ball. Prices run from $269 to $16,980, so the right answer depends as much on budget as on floor plan.

If you want the short version, a small or shared room points to a roll-out mat, a spare corner suits a modular green, and a bay you are building from scratch can take turf with putting built in. The PuttView P7 is for buyers who want the green itself to read the putt and who have both the ceiling height and the budget for it.

How we put this together: we compared published manufacturer specs, retailer listings and owner reports, then applied the criteria below. Links may earn us a commission.

Which kind of green your bay needs

Start with the floor. If you need the floor back after every session, a roll-out mat is the only realistic choice. The Big Moss Competitor Pro V2 is the most affordable option in this group at $269, and it lays flat on carpet, which matters when the green has to share a room with other furniture. The Big Moss Country Club Putting Green V2 is the step up when you want a wider surface, and it costs between $489 and $519 depending on size.

If the green can stay put, a modular corner gives you more length and a more solid surface. The Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 at $2,399 suits a square corner and takes chips well. The SIGPRO Executive at $2,239 gives you the longest putting strip in this roundup, nearly 14 feet, on interlocking tiles. Both need a dedicated zone, so they make the most sense when your room has a corner nothing else needs.

If you are building or rebuilding the bay floor, you can skip the separate green altogether. Carl's Golf Simulator Turf, priced from $1,817 to $2,445, runs out to 12 feet from the screen and makes the bay floor itself the putting surface. The Fiberbuilt Combo at $3,149 to $4,729 goes further and puts hitting turf, a stance mat and a green in one modular floor. This makes the most sense when you are already paying for flooring, but it is the hardest to undo later.

The PuttView P7 is in a different category. At $11,980 for the Basic model and $16,980 for the Plus, it is a projection-based putting system with a tower, a projector and a camera. It reads and tracks the ball, which a passive green cannot do. Ask whether you need that before you pay for it.

A passive green does not make your launch monitor read putts better. Whether a putt gets counted depends on the sensor and its putting mode, not on the surface under the ball. If your simulator already reads putts poorly, a bigger green will not fix the data. Read our guide to simulators that read putts well before you spend on the green.

Four ways to add putting to a simulator room

Think of the choice as a short decision tree. Work down the list and stop at the first answer that fits your room.

• Does the floor need to be clear after practice? If yes, buy a roll-out mat. The Odyssey folds without permanent creases, and the Country Club V2 is light enough to move between a basement, a patio and a deck. A roll-out mat is the right call for a shared room, a family room or any space where the floor doubles as something else.
• Do you have a permanent corner beside the bay, about 10 feet or more each way? If yes, a modular green is the better fit. Modular greens assemble without tools, and once they are down they stay put. The Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 suits a square corner, while the SIGPRO Executive needs a long zone of about 13 feet 9 inches that nothing else uses.
• Are you planning a new bay or replacing the floor turf? If yes, consider simulator floor turf with putting built in. Carl's turf and the Fiberbuilt Combo let you give the whole floor a purpose, so you do not lose hitting space to a separate green. You will need to plan the floor before you lay it, because changing it later means pulling the turf up.
• Do you want the green to show the break and measure the stroke? If yes, the PuttView P7 is the only projection green in this group. It needs a ceiling of at least 7 feet, so check your ceiling before anything else. If your ceiling is lower, this option is off the table no matter how much you want it.

There is a fifth route that sits outside the green question. If you already own a simulator that reads putts poorly, a dedicated putting system may be a better buy than a bigger green. Our guide to newer putting technology covers how those systems work, and how simulator putting works explains where the data comes from. For a putting simulator on a smaller budget, see a putting simulator under $500.

The criteria behind these picks

We picked these greens against five criteria, weighted by how much each one changes whether a green earns its floor space. Fit with the bay carries the most weight because a green that blocks the hitting area, or cannot sit under the screen, is a second room's worth of floor and not an upgrade to the bay.

Criterion	Weight	Why it matters
Fit with a simulator bay	30%	A green that blocks the hitting area or cannot sit under the screen takes floor from the bay without adding to it.
Roll quality and speed	25%	Published stimp ratings from 9 to 12 and the turf build decide whether practice carries over to real greens.
Practice range: length, cups and slope	20%	Length caps the longest putt, and cup count and break tools decide how varied practice can be.
Price for the square footage	15%	Prices run from $269 to $16,980, so cost per usable foot matters as much as the sticker price.
Setup, storage and care	10%	Roll-out mats must lie flat, modular greens assemble without tools, and heavy greens are effectively permanent.

We applied these criteria to published specs, retailer listings and owner reports. We did not run product trials, and the stimp figures below are the makers' numbers rather than readings we took ourselves. The groups in this article follow how each green fits a bay, not a ranking from one to eight, because a green that is right for a basement is wrong for a dedicated studio and vice versa.

Eight greens compared on size, speed and price

The table below puts the core specs side by side. Where the maker doesn't publish a stimp figure, the cell says so rather than guessing, and the price column shows the list price at the time of writing.

Green	Type	Size	Stimp	Cups	Slope tools	Listed price
Big Moss Competitor Pro V2	Roll-out mat	About 3 x 12 ft	Not published	2 in, 3 in and regulation	Break pads and Break Snake	$269
Callaway Odyssey 12 ft	Roll-out mat	12 x 3 ft	Not published	Five recessed	Ramp and foam wedge	Check current price
Big Moss Country Club V2	Roll-out mat	6 x 10 or 6 x 12 ft	10	Three regulation plus a 3 in centre hole	Break Snake	$489 to $519
Fiberbuilt 10 x 10	Modular green	10 x 10 ft	9	Three metal cups	None listed	$2,399
SIGPRO Executive	Modular green	13 ft 9 in x 7 ft 10 in	10	Five	Foam undulation kits	$2,239
Carl's Golf Simulator Turf	Simulator floor turf	7.7 x 10, 8 x 8 or 9 x 12 ft	Not published	Pre-cut holes	Foam break pads	$1,817 to $2,445
Fiberbuilt Combo	Simulator floor turf	10 x 10 up to 10 x 16 ft	Not published	Pre-cut holes	None listed	$3,149 to $4,729
PuttView P7	Projection green	10 x 6 ft	11 to 12	Regulation pre-cut	Projected break lines	$11,980 to $16,980

Read the table with the size column first. The Country Club V2 and the SIGPRO Executive both list a stimp of 10, but the SIGPRO runs about 14 feet and the Country Club tops out at 12, so length decides which one fits your corner at all. The stimp column is also the one most likely to mislead. Four of the eight makers don't publish a figure, so do not treat a blank as a sign of a slow green. Compare the greens that do publish speeds against each other, and compare the others on turf type and build.

The price column needs the same care. The roll-out mats and the modular greens sit in very different budgets, so compare each green against its own type. A $489 roll-out and a $2,239 modular green are not competing for the same buyer, even though both are "indoor putting greens" in a search result.

Roll-out mats you can store after practice

Roll-out mats are the lowest-cost route into indoor putting, and they make the most sense when the room has to do other jobs too. A mat that lies flat on carpet and rolls up after a session gives the floor back for a workout, a family game night or the next person who needs the space. The trade-off is surface quality. A roll-out mat is thinner and lighter than a modular green, so it reads more like a training aid than a true green, and it needs a flat floor under it to lie properly.

Big Moss Competitor Pro V2: progressive cups on a heavy rubber base

At $269, this is the value pick in the roundup. It runs about 3 x 12 feet, which is enough for a long practice strip, and the rubber backing is wrinkle-free. The maker says the mat is 28% heavier, which it links to stability, and the extra weight helps it stay put when you hit a putt across it. The build uses triple-stitched, multi-layer construction, and the maker describes it as handmade in the USA.

The cup set is the strongest part of the package. You get 2 in, 3 in and regulation cups, with removable plugs so you can change the target size as your stroke improves. Each cup comes with a sleeve and a flag, and a stadium backstop catches balls that would otherwise roll off the end. A chipping mat is included, along with two limited-flight balls, which is useful indoors where a full-flight ball can bounce off walls and furniture.

The surface is a True Tour Roll turf. Break pads and a Break Snake add contours, so you can practice breaking putts rather than only straight ones. For a small bay that has to give the floor back after every session, that combination is hard to beat at this price.

The weak point is the backstop. Owners report that it does not hold balls as well as they would like, and a ball that bounces back out of it can roll across the room. Put the mat where there is clear space beyond the backstop, or plan to fetch balls by hand. Treat the backstop as a sensible rather than a perfect catch.

Callaway Odyssey 12 ft: five recessed cups and a fold-flat design

The Odyssey is a 12 x 3 foot strip of polyester true-turf surface on a polyurethane backing. It has five recessed cups with hole-fill inserts, so you can change the cup layout between sessions, and a ramp incline with a foam wedge for setting up slope. The mat folds without permanent creases, which suits a room where the floor has to clear quickly.

No price is given in the source data we worked from, so check the current price before you plan a budget around it. The mat sits at the thin end of this group, and owners say it is thinner than the premium options. Some report a degree of waviness straight out of the box that flattens with time, so unroll it in the room where it will live and leave it flat for a while before you judge the surface.

The Odyssey needs a flat floor more than the other roll-out mats do. A thin mat takes on the shape of the floor under it, so a ridge or a dip shows up in the roll. If your floor is uneven, the Competitor Pro V2 or the Country Club V2 will forgive more.

Big Moss Country Club V2: a 6-foot-wide green with a reduced-size hole

The Country Club V2 is the wider roll-out option. It comes in 6 x 10 or 6 x 12 feet, and the maker lists a stimp of 10. Pricing runs from $489 to $519 at the time of writing, depending on the size you choose. The size range is narrow, so the choice is really between two lengths rather than a full menu.

The backing is high-density foam rather than the rubber base on the Competitor Pro V2, and the maker positions the mat as portable enough for basements, patios or decks. That portability is the reason to pick it over the more permanent modular greens. You can use it outdoors in good weather and bring it in when the weather changes.

Three regulation cups sit alongside a 3 in reduced centre hole. The smaller hole is there for aim training, since a 3 in target is harder to hit than a standard cup and rewards a square face. A backstop with Velcro attachment, a chipping mat, a Break Snake for slope and a flagstick complete the set. Putting, chipping and pitching are all covered, so the mat does more than the name suggests.

The main limit is the size choice. If your strip needs to run 8 or 9 feet or fit a narrower wall, neither option will help, and you will need to look at the modular greens or the turf options instead.

Modular greens for a dedicated corner

A modular green is the step up when you can give putting its own space. Modular greens are built from panels or tiles that assemble without tools, so they can be set up once and left in place. They don't roll away, which is the point. A corner that stays green is ready the moment you want to practise, with nothing to unroll or set up first.

Fiberbuilt 10 x 10: chip and putt on a rubber base

The Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 Indoor Putting and Chipping Green lists at $2,399, down from a usual $2,599. It is the green in this group built most clearly around chipping as well as putting, and its turf gives a check-and-roll on chip shots, so a ball lands and stops rather than running off the far side. For a player who wants to practise the short game indoors, that is the feature that separates it from the others.

The size is 10 x 10 feet, and the same product line also comes in 10 x 12 and 10 x 16 feet if the corner allows. The stimp is 9, which is a gentler roll than the 10 on the SIGPRO and the Country Club V2. A slower green is easier to read and forgives a heavier stroke, and that suits beginners who are still building a consistent tempo.

The base is a modular rubber foundation joined with Easy-Lock fasteners, so you can assemble it without tools. The material is lightweight and water-resistant. Three pre-cut holes sit in the surface with metal cups, so the setup is ready as soon as the panels are joined.

The one gap is slope. The maker lists no slope tools, so every break has to come from the way you set the green up or from a separate accessory. If your practice depends on breaking putts, add that to the budget or pick a green with a Break Snake or foam kit.

SIGPRO Executive: almost 14 feet of putting on polymer tiles

The SIGPRO Executive is the longest putting surface in this roundup. It measures 13 feet 9 inches long, 7 feet 10 inches wide and sits 2.5 inches high. The turf is modelled on bentgrass, and it runs on interlocking high-impact polymer tiles with a slight edge lip that helps hold balls on the surface. At $2,239, down from $2,799, it costs less than the Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 while giving you a far longer strip.

The stimp is 10, and five cup locations give you a practice set that rewards distance control. Because the green is long, the lag putts that a roll-out mat cannot cover are the reason to buy it. A player who wants to practise lag speed control without leaving the room will get more from this than from any mat in the roundup.

Breaks come from foam undulation kits that work with the tile system. They are an add-on, so price them in with the base green rather than assuming the slope comes standard. The tiles also need a flat, solid base. The maker's design is more forgiving of an imperfect floor than a thin roll-out mat, but a noticeable dip will still show.

The main cost is floor space. At 13 feet 9 inches, the SIGPRO takes a long zone out of a room, so measure before you order. The layout section below works through the floor math for a 12 x 16 foot room, which is a useful example of a bay with a green beside it.

Turf that doubles as the simulator floor

Turf that doubles as the simulator floor takes a different approach. Instead of adding a green to a room, you make the room's floor do two jobs. The hitting area and the putting area share one surface, so you do not lose bay space to a separate green. This works best when you are building the bay, because the floor is part of the enclosure rather than something you add afterwards.

Carl's Golf Simulator Turf: 12 feet from screen to tee

Carl's Golf Simulator Turf is made by Big Moss for Carl's DIY enclosure kits. It is priced from $1,817 to $2,445 at the time of writing, and it extends 12 feet from the screen. That means the putting happens on the bay floor itself, with the turf running forward toward the tee line. The sizes are 7.7 x 10, 8 x 8 and 9 x 12 feet, so you can match the turf to the enclosure you have.

The surface is a True Roll turf with pre-cut holes, and foam break pads add slope to the green. The turf includes an 18 x 36 inch ball return strip at the screen end, which keeps balls from rolling back into the hitting area. It also has reinforced backing and hemmed edges, which give a neat finish where the turf meets the enclosure wall.

The trade-off is that the turf is fixed. Once it is down, the bay floor is the green, so you cannot roll it up to clear space for other uses. If you want to keep the floor flexible, the roll-out mats above are the better choice. For a dedicated bay that is planned around the turf, the Carl's product is built for the job.

Fiberbuilt Combo: hitting turf, stance mat and green in one

The Fiberbuilt Combo Golf Mat & Putting Green is the most complete floor in this roundup. Its layout has a centre hitting area, and the surface is built from three types of turf. The fairway turf is 2 in nylon for the hitting zone, the putting turf is a 1/2 in polyester-nylon blend, and the stance mat is 1 in polyester-nylon. Each part does one job, so you get a realistic hit from the fairway turf and a smooth roll from the putting turf without compromise.

Sizes run from 10 x 10 feet up to 10 x 16 feet. The 10 x 10 layout covers about 100 square feet, which gives a sense of how much floor the hitting and putting zones share. The base is a tool-free modular rubber foundation with pre-cut holes, so installation does not require special equipment. The product can be used indoors or outdoors.

Pricing is $3,149 to $4,729 at the time of writing, and the warranty covers the turf for 1 year and the rubber base for 5 years. That warranty split matters because the turf is the part that takes the wear, so the shorter turf warranty is the one to read closely before you buy.

The Combo is the best choice when you are building a floor that serves both the hitting and the putting, and you do not want a separate green competing for space. If you only need a green, a cheaper modular option will do the job. If you only need hitting turf, our guide to hitting mats for the bay covers those options.

A projection green that reads the putt for you

A projection green takes the question off the surface and puts it on the technology. Instead of relying on a launch monitor to read the putt, the PuttView P7 tracks the ball itself and projects a guided path on the green. It is a different product category, and it is priced to match.

PuttView P7: a projected line and ball tracking on a 10 x 6 green

The PuttView P7 comes in two versions. The Basic model lists at $11,980, and the Plus model lists at $16,980, both at the time of writing. The green measures 10 x 6 feet, which is 60 square feet, and the system weighs 330 pounds. Those numbers mean the floor has to be strong enough to carry the weight, and the room has to fit the tower as well as the green.

The stimp runs from 11 to 12, which is the fastest figure in this group, so the surface plays quickly. The tower stands 6 feet 10 inches tall and houses a 1080p projector and a camera. The minimum ceiling height is 7 feet, which leaves very little margin above the tower, so measure before anything else. Camera-assisted calibration sets the projection up, and the guided path shows the line of a putt on the green.

Game modes include courses, pong and tic-tac-toe, which makes the system more of an entertainment piece than a pure training tool. The trim is CNC-milled wood, and the turf carries regulation pre-cut holes. The P7 Plus adds a wireless tablet and advanced analytics, so you can review stroke data without a laptop nearby.

It is a standalone putting system, separate from your launch monitor. That is worth saying plainly, because a buyer might assume a projection green also upgrades the simulator's ball data. It does not change the launch monitor's ball data. The P7 reads putts itself. If you want putting data inside your main simulator software, check how the two systems would work together before you buy.

Green speed in plain numbers

Green speed is the number that most people quote and few people understand, so it is worth spelling out. Stimp is the distance, in feet, that a ball rolls on a flat green after it is released from a stimpmeter ramp. A higher number means a faster green, because the ball keeps rolling farther from the same release. A green that reads 9 stops sooner than one that reads 12, and the same stroke can finish well short on one surface and well past on the other.

The greens in this roundup list a range. The Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 is at 9, the SIGPRO Executive and the Big Moss Country Club V2 are at 10, and the PuttView P7 runs from 11 to 12. The Competitor Pro V2, the Odyssey, Carl's turf and the Fiberbuilt Combo don't publish a figure, so you cannot compare them on speed alone. Judge those by turf type and build, and ask the seller for a number before you buy if speed matters to your practice.

A faster indoor green rewards a softer stroke. When the surface is quick, a small backswing and a light follow-through send the ball the right distance, and a heavy hit runs well past the hole. A slower green asks for more effort, which can be useful for building distance control but makes it easy to leave putts short on a quick surface. Pick a speed close to the courses you actually play, because practice carries over best when the feel is close to the course.

These figures are the makers' numbers. We did not take stimp readings in a room of our own, so treat them as a guide to how the greens compare with each other rather than as a promise of how a given putt will roll on your floor.

Laying out a green inside the hitting bay

The floor math is the step most buyers skip, and it is the one that decides whether a green actually fits. Start by measuring the floor you have, wall to wall and screen to back wall, then subtract the space the hitting area needs. Only then compare the green's footprint against what is left. Here is the arithmetic for each option, using a 12 x 16 foot room as the example, which gives 192 square feet of floor in total.

The SIGPRO Executive measures 13.75 feet by 7.83 feet, which works out to about 108 square feet. In a 192 square foot room that is a little over half the floor, so the green needs its own zone beside the bay rather than sharing the hitting area. You would need to plan the position of the screen and the tee so the long axis of the green runs along a wall and stays clear of the hitting zone.

The Big Moss Country Club V2 in its 6 x 12 foot size is 72 square feet, or about 37 percent of that room. Because it is narrow and rolls, it can lie along one side wall and roll up when you are finished. That is the main reason it fits a room that the SIGPRO would crowd. The 6 x 10 size is 60 square feet if the room is tighter.

The Carl's turf runs 12 feet out from the screen, so putting happens on the bay floor itself. In the same 16 foot room, the turf takes the first 12 feet from the screen if that 16 foot dimension runs from screen to back wall, which leaves 4 feet behind the tee line. The 18 x 36 inch ball return strip at the screen end covers about 4.5 square feet of that turf, and it keeps the balls from rolling back into the hitting area.

The PuttView P7 needs 60 square feet for the green, plus space for the tower and the player. Its 7 foot minimum ceiling is the binding constraint. The tower is 6 feet 10 inches tall, so a ceiling of exactly 7 feet leaves 2 inches of margin, and any light fitting, duct or beam that sits lower than that rules the system out. Measure the lowest point in the room, not the average.

Two layout rules apply to every option. Keep the cups and the putting zone out of the hitting area, so a stray putt cannot roll into your swing path. Then keep the putting cups out of the launch monitor's field of view, and check your sensor's manual for how that view is defined and for any putting-mode setup rules before you fix the green in place.

For more on the room itself, see our guides to planning room size and flooring for a sim room. Those walk through the clearances behind the numbers above, and they are worth reading before you order anything with a fixed footprint.

Adding break and slope

A flat green teaches only half the game, and the slope tools are how each product adds breaking putts. The list below shows what each product includes, so you can check it against the putts you want to practise.

• Break Snake: included with the Big Moss Competitor Pro V2 and the Big Moss Country Club V2.
• Break pads: included with the Competitor Pro V2, giving contour on the mat.
• Foam break pads: included with Carl's Golf Simulator Turf.
• Foam undulation kits: compatible with the SIGPRO Executive, which lets you build a shaped surface on the tile base.
• Ramp and foam wedge: included with the Callaway Odyssey, which sets up a slope for uphill and downhill work.
• Projected break lines: included with the PuttView P7, which shows the line on the green itself.
• No slope tools listed: the Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 and the Fiberbuilt Combo do not list any, so budget for an accessory if breaking putts matter to you.

Break matters more than most buyers expect. A flat green can teach a clean stroke, but it does not teach you to read a left-to-right putt or to choose a line that uses the slope. If that is your main goal, check the slope tools before you check the price. A green that looks like the better value can end up the wrong choice if it cannot give you the putts you practise most.

Keeping the surface flat and clean

Good care is mostly about the floor, the turf and the seams. A green that is cleaned and stored properly keeps its roll, and one that is neglected does not. The list below covers the routine that applies to most of these products.

• Vacuum the surface to remove loose grit and debris before each session, since loose material on the turf can change how the ball rolls.
• Clean spills promptly with a mild detergent solution, and dry the surface after cleaning rather than leaving it damp.
• Let a rolled mat relax flat after unboxing, because the Odyssey shows some waviness at first that eases with time.
• Keep sharp objects and heavy foot traffic off the turf, including spiked shoes and rolling equipment bags.
• Inspect seams and edges for wear, and check tiled and rubber bases panel by panel so a worn section is caught early.
• Note the warranty terms before you buy. The Fiberbuilt Combo covers the turf for 1 year and the rubber base for 5 years, which is a useful reminder that the turf is the part to watch.

Care also means knowing when a product is not built for the job you give it. A roll-out mat is designed to be rolled and moved, so repeated heavy use in one spot will wear it faster than a fixed green. A fixed green is harder to move but does not need the same handling. Match the care routine to how often you will pull the green out and put it back.

Spending ladder from $269 to $16,980

Budget and type go together more closely than most buyers expect. The table below pairs each price band with the green that fits it, so you can see where the money goes as the floor gets more permanent.

Budget band	Green	Type	Listed price
Under $300	Big Moss Competitor Pro V2	Roll-out mat	$269
Around $500	Big Moss Country Club V2	Roll-out mat	$489 to $519
About $1,800 to $2,450	Carl's Golf Simulator Turf	Simulator floor turf	$1,817 to $2,445
About $2,200 to $2,400	SIGPRO Executive	Modular green	$2,239
About $2,200 to $2,400	Fiberbuilt 10 x 10	Modular green	$2,399
About $3,100 to $4,700	Fiberbuilt Combo	Simulator floor turf	$3,149 to $4,729
About $12,000 to $17,000	PuttView P7	Projection green	$11,980 to $16,980
Check current price	Callaway Odyssey 12 ft	Roll-out mat	Check current price

The jump from roll-out mats to modular greens is the biggest change in the ladder. A mat under $520 is a practice tool you can store, while a modular green around $2,200 to $2,400 is a permanent feature with a larger surface and more cups. Spending in between does not get you much, so pick the side of that line that matches your room.

The turf options sit in the same budget as the modular greens, but they do a different job. Carl's turf and the Fiberbuilt Combo are floor replacements, so their cost belongs with your flooring budget, not your putting budget. If you are already buying a bay floor, the Combo's price is closer to a floor upgrade than an extra purchase. If the floor is already done, the modular greens are the realistic comparison.

The PuttView P7 is a separate tier. At $11,980 to $16,980, it sits well above every other green in the roundup, and it asks for a 7 foot ceiling and a floor that can carry 330 pounds. Buy it because you want the tracking and the projected line, not because you want a larger green.

What putting-green buyers ask

Will my launch monitor read putts on any of these greens?

The green itself is passive, so whether a putt gets read depends on your launch monitor and its putting mode. Overhead and side camera units tend to read putts better than radar units in general, but check your unit's manual for its putting mode and field of view. The PuttView P7 is the exception in this group because it tracks the ball itself.

Is a 12-foot mat long enough for lag putting practice?

A 12-foot mat caps your longest putt at about 12 feet, which covers most short and mid-range work but leaves little room for long lag putts. The SIGPRO Executive gives 13 feet 9 inches of putting length, and Fiberbuilt sizes reach 16 feet. For longer lag work, a putting simulator such as ExPutt is listed for putts up to 20 yards.

Can I chip onto an indoor green without damaging it?

Chipping is what the Fiberbuilt 10 x 10 green is built for, with turf that checks and rolls, and the Big Moss Country Club V2 and Competitor Pro V2 both include chipping mats. The Fiberbuilt Combo has fairway turf for hitting, which is a different job from a chipping mat. Use foam or limited-flight balls indoors either way to protect the surface and the room.

Does an indoor green need a perfectly level floor?

Thin mats like the Odyssey need a flat, even surface to lie well. Tiled SIGPRO and rubber-based Fiberbuilt greens are more forgiving of a floor that is not perfect. Break should come from the slope tools that ship with the green, not from an uneven floor.

How much ceiling height does the PuttView P7 need?

The P7 needs a ceiling of at least 7 feet. Its tower stands 6 feet 10 inches tall, so there is only 2 inches of margin. The system weighs 330 pounds, so check that your floor can take it.
