What are some good ways to practice golf in you’r backyard?
FWC asked:
I was wondering what are some good ways to practice golf in you’r backyard prferably without spending tons of money, please. I don’t have that big of a yard, I also live in a decently busy neighborhood so I dont want to hit a car or a home. Basically put, what are some safe and fun ways to practice golf in my backyard? I would like ideas that include woods, irons, wedges, and putter. If you could list a (few) websites that have products that I could purchase to use please do so.
Thanks for all the help,

go to walmart get a big net
You could hit balls into a net, but that doesn’t give feedback on your ball flight. You could work on your ball striking though. I like hitting wiffle golf balls for fun, but the feeling is really different from real balls.
in my backyard, my family installed a putting green in there so we can practice putting. there are companys that install putting greens in back yards. putting is really important, and it is good to practice
Hello TWF
Besides hitting into a net and putting down some astroturf for putting that only leaves chipping.
Chipping is on of the most important aspects of the game and is probably the least practiced. I would say to put a basket in the yard at different distances each day, day 1 put it about 15 yards away. Dont stop hitting balls untill you get in say 3 in a row , then day 2 put the basket about 20 to 25 yards away and repeat.
For putting practice you can always go to the local course and putt around on the practice green .

Hit some plastic golf balls . Over time your swing will really improve because you don’t try to hit them so hard and will groove a really good swing . Because you can apply it to real balls as well. Otherwise just keep chipping real balls as well which will improve your short game around the greens . Good Luck Mate .
