The Flight Deck TOUR is a putting impact trainer that helps you to improve your alignment, contact, and impact face angle. It has two impact pads set perpendicular to the target line. The goal is to simultaneously land your putter onto the ball and both impact pads. Better-quality impacts will have less recoil and vibration than poor impacts. Feedback is immediate and helps you develop a consistent, solid, square impact position. Impact position is essential for making putts. The Flight Deck can assist you with distance control since the follow-through is stopped. This helps golfers to train and focus on backstroke length and distance control.
The Flight Deck TOUR and TOUR Soft are lightweight, compact, and easy to store. Easy travel design for practicing on the course and at home (when combined with our Indoor Base purchased separately).
Here are some additional details about the Flight Deck TOUR and TOUR Soft:
- The original TOUR neoprene impact pads are firm and designed for maximum feedback on shorter range from inside of 10 feet.
- The TOUR Soft provides a softer impact for mid to longer range putts when working on distance control and impact feedback. The TOUR Soft can also be used on shorter length putts just like our TOUR original and is a good choice for golfers who tend to over accelerate at impact.
- Both models help to ensure a square impact putting face angle for more accurate putting. This is crucial for your putts direction because face angle at impact determines up to 95% of the direction.

Great service. Quick ship. After working with this for a week, I’m really seeing it help me square the putter face at impact. Great product.

I have been working to get the ball started on line and a shorter follow through than my backswing. (hopefully putting more of a solid strike on the golf ball). The Flight Deck Tour is helping me to accomplish both goals. The bumpers help to train a square face at impact and by stopping the putter head, it encourages solid contact with the golf ball. (instead of dragging the putter through impact).

It would be nice to be able to anchor the flight deck to my putting carpet when practicing indoors.

Thank you for the feedback Richard. The Flight Deck TOUR was not designed for indoor use. We are currently working to develop an indoor attachment to hold the deck in place without tees as many would like to have that home indoor option. Stay tuned!

Such a great product. So easy to sell once you get the students understanding the best way to putt.

One of the best tools I’ve seen to work on the acceleration profile or the way the player “hits” the putt.

Oh how I wish Fran created this Flight Deck in 2007 when I read Stan Utley’s book on putting. It reduces your ‘urge to surge’ the putter by speeding up or slowing down your downswing. No other device I know helps you crash/land/coast the putter into the ball.

It’s a great tool to feel the hit at impact during the stroke, easy to set up and instant feed back.
