Intro ------ As i have mentioned before when doing putting reviews - it really is the key to becoming a good golfer. Most players after a lot of practice can get the ball on the green after 4 shots, tee to green, the game can become very simple, after that it can be anything but. There is nothing more frustrating than seeing all your hard work over the hole going to waste with a 3 putt which ruins your card. With this in mind there are a number of products out there to improve your putting game, and this cup, is just one of them, so then, just how good is it? How does it work? ----------------------- The cup is a very simple design, ...  Read the complete review

I have been playing golf since I was a kid. Back in the old days it was just a simple game of pitch and put. In the last ten years or so I have taken the game a little more seriously. I now have a full set of clubs and go out playing as much as I can over the summer months. While I certainly don't see myself as a great player, I can usually hold my own over 18 holes. From tee to green I'm a decent player, however, one area of my golfing game that I have never been very good at is putting. This is where the Longridge metal putting cup comes in. It helps improve a golfers putting! The idea is pretty simple. The Longridge metal putting cup is designed to ...  Read the complete review

This is one of those sporting gadgets that I have in the office to play every now and then when I need a break. I originally received it as part of the office 'Secret Santa' along with a couple of golf balls. Now I'm not a keen golfer by any stretch of the imagination, and at the time I didn't even own a golf club, but a few days later I did manage to pick up a putter club for £2 in a car boot sale. Looking on the web, these putting cups are really cheap, ranging anywhere from £2 to £4. The idea is that you place it on the ground somewhere and then knock (or putt as I believe the official golfing term is) golf balls into it from a distance. The cup itself ...  Read the complete review

I recently reviewed an electronic automatic putting returner and having been dissatisfied with its use and lack of relevance to the actual method of putting I sought something else and came across this and have to say its been ideal! The product is designed as a putting aid for budding golfers to improve, swing, control, speed and confidence when putting. Obviously, being primarily intended to be used indoors its nigh on impossible to recreate the conditions of a green but this comes as close as you can get. The base is a flat piece of metal with flaps around the top. The hinges around the top are intended to act as the outer rim of a hole so if you don't get ...  Read the complete review

In brief, A simple but effective Practice "Putting aid" designed primarily for indoor use ( Great for the Carpet ), but could be used just as effectively outside, on a Putting green, or similar flat and well manicured surface if you so wish. It is just a flat plate of Metal with hinged Leaves all around its edge, designed to simulate a Golf hole. Now what's it like in use? It couldn't be easier, put the plate down on the ground and Putt the ball towards it. If you hit a good, on line Putt the ball rolls over the Hinged leaves and "Drops" into the hole, if you hit a poor, or off line putt, it doesn't drop, or it "Lips ...  Read the complete review
