Chipping practice set-up

[detonum]

For all you golf nuts:
The easiest chipping/basic motion set-up for home use. Requires very little space. Automatic ball retrievement system. Free of charge.

Here's a photo (pardon the messy room):



Instructions:
-Grab a pillow.
-Make sure theres something sturdy behind it, so that the pillow wont fall everytime it gets hit by a ball.
-Carpet underneath your chipping place. (I like to use a thin and hard mat, it's like hardpan. And if you can chip off hardpan, you can chip off anything)
-Hit/Swing chips to the pillow. Ball automatically bounces back for you to grab it with your club, and chip again.

I don't know if someone has already posted something like this, but once I got the idea this spring it's been really easy to practice chips at home. Great set-up for perfecting the flying wedges - no urge to hit it far. And you can do hundreds of repetitions in quite a short time, no wonder my chipping game has been very good this season.

If you've got any more lazy/poor mans practice set-ups, feel free to share!

yeah, I have done something similar in the past myself.

An improvement would be a mirror on the wall(s) so you can check you have RFOP
