Abstract

A simulated golf putting green, including a base having an upper surface, lower surface and opposed side walls. A cup is cut into the base to enable golf balls putted thereto, to drop into the cup. A trough returns the golf ball to the starting position. The base is angularly inclined so that the putting is not “on flat.” A backstop enables an errant ball to be returned to the starting position.

1 . A golf putting practice green, comprising:
 a) an elongated base inclined with respect to a horizontal plane, and having an upper surface, a lower surface parallel to the upper surface, a first end wall and an opposed second end wall;   b) an artificial turf cover, disposed atop the upper surface;   c) a cup formed in the base;   d) a trough disposed below the lower surface and in registry with the cup;   e) a basin disposed rearwardly of the second end wall and in communication with the trough, and
 Wherein a golf ball entering the cup drops into the trough and is returned to the basin. 
   
     
     
         2 . The practice green of  claim 1  which further comprises:
 a stand on mat positioned adjacent the base proximate the basin and substantially flush with the base. 
 
     
     
         3 . The practice green of  claim 1  which further comprises:
 a) a back stop disposed rearwardly of the second end wall; 
 b) a wall defined between the back stop and the second end wall; and
 wherein an errant golf ball going past the end wall is captured in the basin. 
 
 
     
     
         4 . The practice green of  claim 3  which further comprises:
 at least one gutter secured to the base below the upper surface. The gutter capturing a golf ball which goes past the second wall and fails to reach the backstop. 
 
     
     
         5 . The practice green of  claim 4  which further comprises:
 a) A horizontally angularly inclined ledge secured to the backstop and traversing the width thereof and a diverter; and
 wherein an errant golf ball landing on the ledge when engaging the diverter is directed into the at least one gutter. 
 
 
     
     
         6 . The practice green of  claim 1  which further includes:
 a visible line provided on the upper surface and extending from the first end wall to the cup. 
 
     
     
         7 . The practice green of  claim 1  which further comprises:
 at least one gutter secured to the base below the upper surface. The gutter capturing a golf ball which goes past the second wall and fails to reach the backstop. 
 
     
     
         8 . The practice green of  claim 6  which further includes:
 a visible line provided on the upper surface and extending from the first end wall to the cup.
