Abstract
A method of practicing a golf swing and a kit for use with the method is provided, whereby the golfer applies a colorant to the sole of a golf club with a marking instrument and hits golf balls off of a resilient flexible mat, so that the colorant is transferred to the upper surface of the mat, thereby creating marks that are characteristic of the golfer's swing.
