View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Noo Rae] The spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) continues.
The Tokyo Olympics, originally scheduled for July, have been postponed by one year due to the global impact. Amateur golfers eagerly awaiting the new season also feel heavy-hearted. They are itching to show the skills they honed last winter. Although outdoor activities are restricted, they cannot just put down their golf clubs and wait. It is important to consistently maintain their touch and keep their interest in golf alive. Here, we introduce 'indoor assistants' that help golfers cope with COVID-19.
First, putting trainers. They are the best tools to reduce strokes without noise. They are popular because they allow players to practice their skills while being considerate of those around them. The Puttout Pro Golf Putting Mat is a representative example. It is great for learning putting strokes. It measures 240cm in length and 50cm in width. Its compact size makes installation easy. Weighing only 2.27kg, the mat can be rolled up and placed in a bag for easy transport.
The distances are segmented to practice accurate distance control, and alignment markings guide proper putting. Left-handed golfers can also use it. Available colors include Blue Black, Green, and Gray. The price is $109.95 (135,000 KRW). Puttout's Pressure Putt Trainer is an automatic putting repetition device that simulates the feeling of the ball going into the hole. It is ultra-compact at 22cm and 215g. The price is $29.98 (37,000 KRW).
