Custom Street Pole Banners - Custom Feather Flags


Saturday, August 25, 2012

The golf course will involve different characteristics and features that need to be mastered by the starting golf player. You have to understand and identify the various elements such as the tee box, the rough, the golf fairway, the sand bunkers, the green side and other hazard zones. Most importantly, you have to know how to find the putting green with the aid of putting green flags. This is where the final flag is found positioned directly in the cup. All golfers will aim to hit the ball into the final cup.

This article refers to the characteristics of the putting green.

The putting green has clean cut grass all around the cup or hole. The 18-hole golf course will also have 18 putting greens where the golfer will attempt to place the ball into the cup before qualifying for the next round or hole. Putting green flags are essential in directing the golfer to the cup.

The putting green speed and slope can change drastically depending on the layout of the course. Some golf courses are easy and require only straight or fast putting. Others will require more strategy and technique because of the surface.

The putting green slope will determine how the golf ball should be positioned and rolled towards the hole. There are times when the ball will start to roll to the left and then move towards the right after the strike. In this case, the ball breaks “left to right” and vice-versa. On challenging courses and putting greens, the ball will break unpredictably on the putting green.
