Every golf instructor runs into the same problem teaching in a hitting bay. A student struggles with the ball above their feet, or three-putts from anything with real break, and there’s no reliable way to put them back in that exact situation on command. Outdoors, you’re at the mercy of whatever slope the course gives you that day. Indoors, there was no slope at all.
With our dynamic platforms, the lie becomes repeatable.
That single change is turning PLATFORM Golf bays into something closer to a lab than a hitting station.
How Does PLATFORM Golf Work for Golf Pros?
PLATFORM Golf works for instructors by giving them a controllable variable they never had indoors: slope. A coach can set a specific uphill, downhill, or sidehill condition on TrueSlope™ or a specific green contour on TrueBreak™, watch the player hit it, adjust one thing, and have them hit the exact same shot again. A student who struggles with a downhill lie or a left-to-right breaker isn’t guessing at the fix next time, instead, they’ve already grooved the adjustment, on that exact slope, on command.
A Repeatable Slope Is a Teaching Tool
TrueBreak™ is built around this for the green: configurable up to 22 feet by 11 feet, with a patented inclinometer and internal digital level so the coach knows the exact slope percentage being taught, plus real-time ball tracking on speed, starting line, and path — turning “read the green better” into something a coach can measure. For the full swing, TrueSlope™ does the same job on the approach, letting a coach dial in a slope and see the impact on strike and balance immediately.
The bigger shift: a coach no longer has to choose between approach shots and putting in one session. TrueSlope™ combines both with a tee shot, an approach from an uneven lie, and a breaking putt to finish, all tied to the same simulated hole, so a lesson can walk through an entire hole’s worth of decisions, not just a bucket of range balls.
Built for the People Who Teach the Game
Major champion coach Claude Harmon partnered with PLATFORM Golf in 2025, and putting coach Stephen Sweeney was featured on Golf.com teaching golfers to read greens using PLATFORM’s technology. Academies are following: the Tommy Fleetwood Academy at Yas Links in Abu Dhabi and Precision Golf in London have both built PLATFORM into their teaching facilities.
Golfers aren’t only going indoors to hit balls anymore. They’re using these environments to get better, and the coach’s job is to make that time count.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does PLATFORM Golf work for Golf Pros?
It gives coaches a repeatable, adjustable slope for both full swing and putting, so a specific lie or green condition can be set, taught, and repeated on command instead of waiting for the right lie to occur naturally.
What PLATFORM Golf products are best for teaching professionals?
TrueBreak™ is built for dedicated putting and green-reading instruction, while TrueSlope™ combines full-swing uneven-lie training with breaking putts in a single bay, making it suited to academies that teach both.
Is PLATFORM Golf worth it for golf instructors?
Yes. TrueSlope allows coaches to diagnose and correct how a student handles slope and break, a variable that outdoor courses cannot offer on demand. PLATFORM’s repeatable, measurable surface gives coaches the ability to create these conditions consistently, helping students build a more complete understanding of how their game performs across different lies and breaks. It also differentiates a coach’s offering while giving students a true 360 degree experience that bridges the gap between indoor practice and the course.
