    Holy Grail delamination

    Anyone have something like this happen? I'm hoping I can use some carpet glue or tape or something to put it back together but curious what others may have done to fix it.

    Front 1/3 or half or so is still stuck OK, but the rest isn't really attached at all anymore. Doesn't pull up on every shot, but definitely loose and wrinkled after about every swing.

    Depending on how old it is, that may be under warranty

      Mine started bubbling in places and then it started pulling away from the plexi thing it’s attached to. Let gung ho know and they replaced it since it happened under the year warranty. They told me to glue it back into place in the meantime, but it just ended up bubbling even more. I ended up then buying the holy grail stance mat and it started sagging within about 6 months. I emailed gung ho about it, sent pics but never heard back. So the quality of their products are suspect, in my opinion, , and I probably won’t buy from them again. That’s been my experience so ymmv.

        When my hitting strip started separating, they told me to "try glue". I figured it was priced so high, they could afford to send out 1 or 2 replacements under warranty and still have a good margin. I didn't fight it and won't buy another. To address sag, I integrated some additional packing foam to help fill the air voids. It is not perfectly flat, but better and seems to not be sagging further.

      Bought it about a year and half ago but really only started giving it serious use in the last 3-4 months. It sat idle most of the time during my basement remodel. I'm email gungho and see if anything comes of it.

      Any good alternatives that would have similar dimensions. I built up the stance mat around the hitting strip so everything is flush.

        They replaced mine without issue when something similiar happened.

          Bullseye Golf Strip is the best hitting strip I have used to date. I have tried a few including the Original Divot action.

            Follow up on this. Contacted gungho but since it was more than a year old they wouldn't replace. Not surprised but they did offer a discount on a replacement.

            They also recommended Liquid Nails to re-attach the turf. I tried some heavy duty carpet tape first figuring if that didn't work it would be easy enough to take off and go the glue route. Haven't hit a ton of shots off it yet, but so far the tape seems to be holding up pretty well.

              I tried the tape thing too while waiting for my back ordered replacement. It hung in there a bit but didnt last too long.

                Combing through all the mat posts, pretty much crossing off Gungho at this point and will stick with the Fiberbuilt I suppose.

                  Had this issue also. Thankfully, it was under warranty so Gungho sent me another one without any issues. Worried about the long term quality on these currently.
