Zusammenfassung:There are many constructions for permitting one to practice portions of the game of golf indoors. However golf requires a different types of strokes to be performed proficiently, and practicing all the types of strokes indoors, and in a sequence which simulates an actual golf game, has until now been problematic. Disclosed is a practice booth for golf with a putting pan which serves a number of functions. The pan itself retains the lower edges of net like walls of the booth, and gathers end supports these walls when the pan is hoisted by ropes or cables to the supporting roof of the room in which the booth is erected. The putting pan is made of bendable but ridged hollow sections which permit the upper surface to be warped to simulate variations in lies of putting greens. Alternative carpet like coverings are available to change the putting surface characteristics. A removable target for chipping or driving attaches to one net wall of the booth. The target is made of a foam elastomer slab which dents easily to mark the impact of the driven ball, but slowly restores to its original flat shape after a time.
