A driving mat used for practicing golf shots made of flexible material formed in tapering thickness so that it is substantially thicker at the front end then at the rear end, with the thick end being transversely relieved along the underside to define a cantilevered lip which overhangs, and is spaced above, the supporting surface. A tee may be inserted into the mat near the edge of the cantilevered lip for supporting a golf ball. When a golf club swung at the ball is swung too low, the lip, in the face of the impact, is free to yield by deflecting downwardly toward the supporting surface thereby to minimize damage to the mat and the club and discomfort to the player.
