Good morning everyone. Happy US Open Day.
I currently have a cheapo mat in my garage (4’x5’ Emerald Par off Amazon...pretty horrible) that I’m looking to upgrade. I’m considering three options:
1) 1’x4’ Fiberbuilt strip ($300, per FB sales person yesterday) with current cheapo as a stance mat...would use plywood etc. to level stance mat with Fiberbuilt and tie together with a wood frame probably
2) Fiberbuilt Performance 4’x5’ setup, rubber frame and EPS pods...whatever that means ($500) https://fiberbuiltgolf.com/collectio...erformance-mat
3) Fiberbuilt Traditional 4’x5’ setup, solid rubber foundation ($750) https://fiberbuiltgolf.com/collectio...em-nylon-grass
Any reason to consider options 2 or 3 over option 1? Would it be worth the extra cost to have a full FB system? If so, main difference between Options 2 and 3 to me is the base (and you get an extra foot of hitting strip...small bonus). Is the full rubber base worth the extra $250?
If it matters, this is for a garage setup, so would slide the mat 10’ or so out of the way so I can park a car.
Appreciate any insights you all may have.
