Abstract/Contents:Discusses the potential attributes of a well-made golf course green. States that "in the eyes of the true professional the ideal putting surface comprises a combination of optimal speed, smoothness and trueness." Mentions the use of a Stimpmeter to measure the speed of a green, but focuses on the development of the Trueness Meter by Sports Turf Research Institute (STRI) and Sheffield Hallam University. Also describes the STRI Smoothness Scale, a visual rating system that scores greens based on their smoothness and trueness.
