Why I went back to Fiberbuilt from Quattro mat

[EasyW]

I was originally disenchanted with the fiberbuilt as i felt it was kinda like hitting off a hairbrush. I moved to a Quattro strip and was initially very happy with it as i felt it matched well with the firm Texas fairways i am used to.

Then Coronavirus happened...i started wanting to play more and without playing real golf as much, i dove back into my SIM for more than just skytrak practice range work. I discovered E6 connect and find it so much more enjoyable than the original TGC (never tried TGC2019).

Bottom line I was practicing and playing a ton more and concluded that the fiberbuilt strip is simply the easiest on the joints. The Quattro led to some soreness in the elbow and wrist to the point where I subconsciously started trying to pick the ball to avoid the impact. I am glad i kept my fiberbuilt and didn't sell it.

Anyone ever hit off this DivotAction Togo mat located here: https://www.customdesigngolf.com/index.html Looks like it could be incorporated into the fiberbuilt mat by cutting a section out the size of this.

If you contact custom golf, he will build you what ever you want to put into a Fiberbuilt set up.

I have the 4x4 stance and fiberbuilt 4’ hitting strip in the 5x4 tray. I substitute out a DivotAction that is 12”x24” with a filler at each end to fit the fiberbuilt tray. All built by DivAction.

A year in, and I still haven’t settled in one hitting strip LOL. But custom design will work with you, just call him and tell him what you’re looking to do

Do not continue to use a product that causes discomfort. The pain is real damage to your wrist and elbows. It may take over 3 months to recover with the mildest of injuries. Some users indicate that they have much longer term discomfort.

I had an UltiMat from golfsimulatorguys and developed a bit of pain in my left wrist and right elbow. There were times when I blamed my own swing for any wince, but it really was not acceptable. When the fiberbuilt setup was first played, I had doubts. There is a yardage penalty to hitting the ball a bit fat, yet this translates really well to the golf course. I like the fiberbuilt now and can play many sim rounds a week without issue.

There isn't a reason to hit off a mat that is known to cause injury to a customer. Fiberbuilt provides a very forgiving impact zone on their studio and combo mats.

Search for wrist pain or elbow pain regarding any brand of mat. You may not recover your health.
