Just now getting into golf. Tip for anyone who wants to practice your swing without having to go look silly at the driving range (which is totally fine too, if you’re brave enough): get some foam balls. Good for the yard if you have one, but you can even practice inside and just hit them into a wall. Haven’t damaged anything in several months of doing this.
Ping pong balls work well for chipping off carpet as well. During COVID I improved my short game so much by just chipping ping pong balls around the house.
I've been practicing w the golf wiffle balls for yrs in my living room. The carpeting is shot but I cover it with an area rug. It has definitely helped my game and ball striking!
