Using this Pure2Improve golf putting mat is easy. Just unroll it on a flat surface, like your living room floor or in your backyard. Place your golf ball at the start of the mat and start practicing your putts. Remember to use the visual aids and alignment guides on the mat to improve your distance control and aim. As for maintenance, keep the mat clean by gently wiping it with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the surface. Store it rolled up in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent any warping or damage. And don't forget, it works great with other Pure2Improve golf training tools, so feel free to combine them for a more comprehensive training session.
