The Putt-A-Bout putting green is available for purchase at Amazon

Just because careers and day-to-day responsibilities take precedence over leisure activities doesn’t mean you should give up practicing your short game. For anyone who could use some at-home fun (hint, hint, Father’s Day is coming up), we’d like to recommend the Putt-A-Bout Par Three Golf Putting Green. It’s a bona fide Amazon No. 1 best seller currently on sale for just $35, down from $50. This is the kind of item we love: it has what we call a high fun-to-cost ratio, promises hours and hours, eventually years and years, of skill-honing entertainment for less than the cost of dinner for two.

The Putt-A-Bout has a smooth, real playing surface and will not slide around on carpet, tile and hardwood floors. Simply roll out, set up and get started! It offers three hole options (left, right, and center) and even has built-in “sand” traps that mimic the peripheral hazards associated with the real game.

Needless to say (we hope) it makes a great gift idea for the golfer in your life, but it also makes a great toy for anyone looking for a skill-based diversion for the home. Pretend you’re a big manager and stop while you’re on the phone! Oh, and did we mention kids will love it? uh…kids will love it.

Low price. Challenging yet fun. By playing everyone. Is it any wonder that the Putt-A-Bout Par Three Golf Putting Green is more than 15,000 five star reviews? This dutiful daughter scored one for her 86-year-old father: “Pops has always been an active man, played basketball and baseball professionally, and absolutely loves golf. I haven’t been able to play much outside lately, so this gift was perfect. … Awesome.” She added: “Pops loved the idea that he can practice putting it in the comfort of his living room. We watched the US Open and had a putting game. BEST Father’s Day gift ever. Just got two more bought one for my husband and one his best friend and golf partner.”

“Anyone who needs a real review from a real golfer, here it is,” We’re listening….” So easy to set up a putt and give yourself a real feel and great line. I hit a chalk line down for six foot putts I wake up every morning and sink five in a row and get on with my day This has helped me soooo much on the course It has made my short putts easy.. My friend has a $200 set up, and this beats it.”

“Best golf practice tool.” trumpeted this lucky daddy. “I also recently got my 7-year-old daughter into golf. We have putt competitions with this product and she absolutely loves it. We both enjoy coming up with creative putts to hit the other.” But, he added, the Putt-A-Bout has also improved his game on the course. “I’ve already seen my average number of putts drop… If you’re on the line with this, go for it. You’ll be extremely pleased.”
