You don’t need expensive equipment to make big improvements to your game this offseason. You just need to get a little creative with your home practice setup. With the right tools, you can practice your full swing, short game and putting — and the best part is that you can do it for less than the cost of a new driver.
Below are three affordable and effective training devices you can use to improve your game from tee to green and start your season in prime playing condition.

This model also comes with Rapsodo’s swing replay with shot trace technology, allowing you to analyze your swing in real-time. Rapsodo also keeps all of your session history and shot videos, making it easy to share the results with your swing coach and track your progress more accurately.
Rukket Sports Haack Lite 7×7 Golf Net
Hit golf balls without leaving the comfort of your own home thanks to this golf net from Rukket Sports. The seven-by-seven solid frame and four-ply knotless net are durable enough to withstand real golf balls. Plus, the lightweight and compact design make it a breeze to set up and take down, so it won’t be the focal point of your backyard when you’re not using it. Pair it with the Rukket Sports Tri-Turf Mat to save your grass from any damage your divots will create.
Putting Arc Mirror with gates
Most amateurs struggle on the greens because they have a poor setup. But, you can build a solid, consistent setup with the help of a putting mirror, like this one from Golf Training Aids. Use the mirror to check important keys like ball position, alignment and eye line. Plus, this bundle comes with putting gates that you can use to improve your impact position, start line and more.
