Sale Alert: A backyard chipping net that’s an investment in your short game

Golfers always talk about it. How this season is going to be different. How this season, rather than spending an extra few minutes on the range before your round or on the weekend, you’re going to practice your short game. No more skulling or chunking chips, costing you shots and ruining your score. Instead you’ll groove nice, crispy contact around the greens, and drop you handicap along the way.

Except you never do.

Why? Because practicing chipping, for so many golfers, simply isn’t as fun as being on the driving range. After all, if you’ve finally got enough time to play some golf, you’ll probably want to practice your swing. And who knows, your course may not even have a chipping green.

All of which is why this 23″ Maxfli chipping net caught my eye. It collapses to about seven inches in size and is marked down to $39.99 from it’s original $49.99.  Throw it in your back yard, hit a few chips in your spare time, and you’ll be amazed how much — and how quickly — you’ll improve.
