Have you ever tried practicing chipping at home? I have and it is not the same. The fear of smashing the telly is a bit too much for me. So I was delighted when I came across Soft Shot, a safe indoor golf ball which gives you a similar feedback to a real golf ball without the risk of damaging the wife’s precious ornaments.
I was pleasantly surprised with how good these balls are for practicing chipping. OK, they are not a Pro V1 but certainly the best indoor ball I have seen. What’s more, they are a lot of fun in the garden. I know they are designed for indoor use but I took them into my little garden and you can hit full shots and keep the greenhouse intact.
All in all these balls are great but with only one problem for me… In order to continue using them I need to get the ladder out to retrieve them from the roof of my conservatory.
Soft Shots are available in packs of 3 for £9.95 from www.cozmosports.co.uk but we have 3 packs up for grabs if you are based in the UK. In order to qualify, e-mail us with ”Soft Shot Competition” in the subject field and your contact details. We will let you know after the closing date on 15th June 2009.
