Divot hit/portable golf practice mat
First Claim
1. A portable artificial grass golf practice mat small in dimensions of 12 inches long by 3.5 inches wide, lightweight, and flexible enough to be carried in any golf bag that simulates the "give" of a natural fairway turf and provides for the proper swing plane arc of a golf shot when a golf ball is resting on the top by providing a level lie with the surrounding surface by replacing a natural divot created upon executing a golf swing with an artificial grass divot with said artificial divot of two piece construction of any commercially manufactured artificial grass material comprising a front divot piece for hitting balls that moves forward freely and returns automatically to it'"'"'s original position via use of elastic rubber bands attached to the back end and a back anchor piece which secures the apparatus via golf tees to the ground and provides a base for the divot piece to return absorbing the return force of the divot piece and controlling it'"'"'s return direction through the use of parallel plastic tracks through which the elastic rubber bands which secure the divot piece to the ground pass uninterrupted for maximum elasticity and absorption of force, thereby, allowing for the smallest size mat as all materials used and in the hitting area are golfer friendly and do not cause damage or injury upon contact.
