BirdieBall- 12 Balls

Works great if you are not able to makeIt to a range. Also balls are durable enough to withstand being retrieved by a German Shepard! Very happy with the durability and quality of the product.

This allows anyone to practice their irons, hybrids, and higher woods. You only need about 50 yards of area, great for back yard fun. Great product!

Update 10/22Since this purchase in 2011 I have probably purchased four dozen of these babies - I just love them. Still over time they do crack and eventually break or not fly well due to being de-shaped in one way or another so I needed to get more. The only thing these things cannot do easily, is let you know if you hit slightly on the heel or toe. But over time and with some experience, you can even detect those mishits.Also since this review I have found they work very well off a hitting mat. I have a Monster Mat and spend most of of my time practicing off the mat mainly because I do not want to tear up my lawn. Although I do have an area of lawn I use just for the purpose of verifying I am taking a good divot off the grass. Or I use it with my Divot Board - which is a great combination.Easily my favorite practice aid of all time with the Divot Board a close second. If you are a golfer like me who loves to practice daily and prefers not to take unnecessary trips to the driving range, the Birdie Ball is a must have. I cannot recommend these enough.Original ReviewI did not have high expectations for this product even though they have received pretty positive reviews, but for about the same price as a dozen golf balls, there was not much risk. When they arrived, which took far longer than it should have, I immediately took them outside for a few test hits in my yard. I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised. These babies work 100% as advertised. They're a little bigger than a golf ball but about what I expected. When you make solid contact they feel pretty much like hitting a golf ball and they make a very cool buzzing sound when they fly.I started with my 8 iron which I can normally hit pretty well, and they flew high and straight just like a real ball, but not as far of course. I have a decent size yard and can almost hit a full wedge, so taking a full swing using the Birdie Ball with my 8 iron was no problem. I purposely came over the top on a few swings which I tend to do when I don't lead well with my hips, and the ball sliced just like a golf ball would. I was able to draw a few shots as well.One of the main reasons I bought these is to hit off grass using a full club, so I could practice hitting down on the ball and taking a good divot. They babies work perfectly for this purpose. I do have a practice mat and net, but haven't tried hitting off the mat yet. I don't now if I will since they work so well on grass and I can use a full club and get solid feedback.I've purchased a few other golf aids and have to say this is one of the best. Being able to use a full club in my own yard, off real grass and get real feedback is about as good as it gets. I know I'll save money at the range and pretty confident I can build a good solid repeatable swing using the Birdie Balls.I think these are a must for any golfer who wants to practice more frequently and not spend the time and money at the range. You might spend a few bucks on grass seed, but it's well worth it to see that perfect divot!!

The golfer in your life will love these. Something different but works great!Got these as a gift and he loved them. He Uses them weekly and they work great in our backyard.

As a real golf player, these may look a little different but the ball flight is spot on. Perfect for backyard golf with the family or to help tune up your game when you can't get to the range. I used a PW - 3 Wood and they traveled 25-50 yards. About 2 yards differencebetween clubs. After hitting these pre round, I Was on in one for all the par 3's that day. So much fun!
