2 points, lads

1. That will teach you to aim the shot properly Ricky!!! I see lots of players, even really good ones, taking the line of the mat as the line and missing fairways or greens. Make a point of aiming your shot properly, its a good habit to get into.

2. You can tee the ball up 2 clublengths behind the markers, that means you might not have to use the mats.....bear that in mind especially if, like my course, your winter mats are at ground level.
