Precision Putting Laser
$39.99
Precision Putting Laser Think of yourself as a Sniper, and your putter is the badass modified rifle that helps you lock on to your target. Our Precision Putting Laser goes on top of your weapon (the putter) and shows you EXACTLY how to perfect your aim, so you can feel more confident pulling that trigger. As we already know, 97% of players suck at aiming (see: Accurate Aim Kit) and if your aim is poor, you’ll have to make adjustments throughout the stroke to get the putter face aimed down the correct line in time for impact. This leads to inconsistencies and missed putts. The PPL comes with a tripod as well, which allows you to create a sort of “chalk line”- but this chalk line won’t ruin your hardwood floors. Click the Laser onto the tripod, align it with your target, and you have a clear visual of the line you’re trying to hit. *This laser is designed for indoor use, and is not visible in bright outdoor light*

Putting Mirror
$49.99
We have yet to find a good putter who sets up differently each time. Call us old-fashioned, but we believe the setup, stroke, and start line must stay consistent. That’s why we developed the Short Game Gains Putting Mirror. This detailed mirror helps you to check your alignment, confirm that your stroke is on the right path, and help you start every putt on your intended line. Staying consistent is what the best players do- so why not bring that stability into your own putting routine?
The SGG putting mirror also comes with a metal protective storage case.
A few SGG putting mirror features: eye line alignment shoulder alignment swing path distance from ball width of stance ball position center contact starting ball on line

Path Perfectors
$24.99
As we (should) all know by now, one of the main keys to being a great putter is having an efficient, repeatable stroke. If you don’t have a good stroke path, you’re going to struggle to square the putter face at impact and start the ball on your intended line.
The Path Perfectors are designed to help you develop a consistent reliable stroke path and also center contact on the club face. This means a better stroke, better distance control, and in turn, more putts made.
What makes our Path Perfectors different? Glad you asked. Instead of the usual aluminum or steel that most putting gates are made of, ours are built out of a custom silicone blend. Steel and aluminum not only damage your putter, they’re also loud and a little bit irritating. No one else needs to know that your putting stroke sucks, and reminding them with loud clanking against some gates and chipped paint on your putter is probably not the best way to get an invite to the next scramble tournament.

Cup Reducer
$17.99
The ability to narrow down your focus on a smaller target is something you will hear the best golfers in the world constantly talk about. With the help from the Short Game Gains putting cup reducer you can decrease the size of the hole two different levels. You can also put graphics on the actual cup to further narrow down your focus on a specific part of the actual hole. Putting to a smaller target in practice will also make the regular cup look bigger during the round which can increase your confidence and help you put a better stroke on your putts!

$21.99
We all know someone who spends all of their time “practicing”, but never seems to get better. Don’t be that guy. Focusing on the right things is key to dropping strokes on the course. One thing that every good putter on Tour does well, is starting putts on their intended line.

It has multiple functions, allowing you to measure your performance as well as keeping your stroke consistent. Most people aren’t sure how to practice to improve, because they aren’t actually sure what they’re doing wrong. The Start Line String is a perfect way to make sure your practice is effective and efficient.
SGG Putting String features:
•start line •eye line •green reading •swing path •swing length

All Terrain Putting Gate
$19.99
All Terrain Putting Gate No more excuses- our All Terrain Putting Gates are built for indoor AND outdoor practice… which means rain or shine, you can get to work on your putting. The All Terrain Gate comes with detachable feet, so that you can place them on whatever flat surface your heart desires. If you’re outdoors, just pop the feet off and secure the Gate into the putting green. The included string will also help you measure 14 inches from the gate. From here, you must be within 1° of accuracy to roll it through the Gate- which means you can measure your performance over time in a tangible way. Count how many out of 10 you can roll through the gate, and keep track to watch your skills improve. Of the Pros we tested, all averaged 8 out of 10. Good luck!

Ghost Holes
$14.99
They sound scarier than they are- trust us. The SGG Ghost Holes can be used to improve your performance both on and off the greens. Each of the ghost holes (sold in packs of 3) are the exact dimensions of an actual regulation golf hole.
There is one thing that differentiates these ghost holes from other practice cups. Made from sturdy, yet flexible PVC, they are thin enough for a golf ball to roll across seamlessly, but they won’t blow away. The edges are flat, allowing you to aim for them without affecting the roll of the ball. This makes them perfect options for distance control drills with the putter and as landing spot targets for shots around the greens.
A lot of players also like to use them during practice rounds and place them where they believe the holes will be placed during the event to allow them to practice the putts they will be faced with.
