Abstract

A golf practice apparatus which includes a centrally angled "V" or "U" shaped perimeter framework securing a centrally angled "V" or "U" shaped net wherein the framework extends forward of the target to maintain the angled netting in a secured arrangement in use, thereby creating a receding "V" or "U" shaped backstop. The target is attached to elastic straps which encircle the upper and lower target supports, and supports cross forward of the center framework support. The target is adjustable vertically up or down. A mat is provided which is adjustable horizontally either closer to or away from the target and angled "V" or "U" shaped perimeter framework. The mat is adjustable by supporting it with a board and shims.
