Abstract

A golf practice device has a flexible weighted ring and a sloped shoulder. A bottom surface includes an array of gripping projections generally encircling the ball receiving opening defined by the ring. The game target is placed upon a natural ground surface and uses the natural ground surface as a target to better simulate actual playing conditions.
