The 2024-2025 college golf season begins in September. This year, nearly 300 D1 schools will participate in the NCAA golf tournaments. While fans can watch the action on ESPN and Golf Channel, aspiring and amateur golfers can also hone their skills at home with the Perfect Practice Putting Mat.
Perfect Practice, the official golf putting green of former PGA World No. 1 (and current LIV golf star) Dustin Johnson, has introduced a collection of college-themed putting mats ahead of the new school season. This officially licensed NCAA collaboration lets you customize your mat from more than 20 school colors and logos.
It is available on Amazon for $99. For a limited time, you can save an additional $25 when you apply the coupon code on the Amazon.com site.
COLLEGE EDITION
Perfect Practice Indoor Putting Mat Collegiate Edition
The Perfect Practice Collegiate Edition Putting Mat is nine feet long and is made from a unique “crystal velvet” material that mimics playing on grass or turf. There are two holes at the end of the mat, as well as lines and markings to help you work on precision and shot accuracy. The two holes also make this indoor green ideal for both right- and left-handed golfers.
What we like: The built-in “auto return” system automatically rolls the ball back to you via a side channel. When you’re done playing, simply roll the mat up like a rug and easily store it in a closet or under the bed (reviewers say you may need to do a little ironing or smoothing the mat when you take it back out). The ball return track snaps together in seconds.

CLASSIC EDITION
Perfect Practice Compact Putting Mat
Prefer the traditional indoor putting green? Amazon also sells the regular version of the Perfect Practice Putting Mat here. The company says this is the same indoor putting mat that 2020 Masters champion Johnson used and that it was designed with “tour-proven technology” in mind. Both the college edition and classic versions of the indoor putting greens are available now on Amazon (note: clubs and golf balls are not included).
The college golf season begins with tournaments in September, with teams attempting to advance to the NCAA D1 Championship in May. Last year’s winning team came from Auburn after the sixth-seeded Tigers defeated fifth-seeded Florida State 3-2 in match play.
