Abstract/Contents: | Discusses golfer perceptions of putting green consistency, stating that "the undeniable truth is that golf is unique, and there is no doubt that consistency is impossible to achieve." Suggests that putting green aspects depend on season, weather, and time of day the course is played. Mentions practice greens, noting that a practice green speed should potentially be within one foot of the course speed to guarantee consistency. Emphasizes that adaptability may be part of becoming a better golfer and that consistency should only apply to the day of play, and not to weeks or years of play on a course. |
