This fielding mat has some great qualities!! It’s very durable and high quality material. It’s not heavy at all so easy to pack and carry with you while traveling. I like how there are stakes included so it can stay in the ground. I tried this mat on both the ground (grass)and on a hard surface (asphalt). I had better results on the hard surface because it wasn’t bouncing over and missing the mat as often. I feel like the best surface for this mat would either be a gym floor (for those rainy/snowy practice days where you need to be indoors). Or on some softer dirt on a ballfield. Great that this product can be used both indoors or outdoors. When the mat is pointed away from the fielder, there are random bounces and while pointed towards fielder the ball is more predictable. Both ways help with reaction time and hand eye coordination!
