Abstract/Contents:"Golf ball lie describes the characteristics of how a golf ball comes to rest on the turf after a golf stroke. Although the lie of a golf ball is an important factor affecting the play of the next shot, there have been few attempts to measure this characteristic or determine how management practices, turfgrass species, or cultivars affect ball lie. A new technique utilizing digital image analysis was developed for measuring ball lie. The image analysis technique could easily distinguish changes in ball height within a turfgrass canopy. In addition, the new technique was easier and faster to collect data compared to the Lie-N-Eye, the only other method of ball lie analysis available. The development of this technique will allow us to study a range of factors that can influence ball lie, including turfgrass species, cultivars, and a range of cultural practices."
