Greens SpeedReader: The Personal Stimpmeter®


Smaller and more convienent

The Stimpmeter was designed for greenskeepers, not for daily use by regular golfers. It is 3-feet long, needs long level surfaces, requires extra measuring tools, and must be manually raised at a precise rate to roughly 20 degrees to be reliable.

USGA™ Stimpmeter®

Greens SpeedReader: easier to carry and use than the Stimpmeter


Stable platform and simple operation

 

The Greens SpeedReader™ is more compact, portable, and eliminates any operator error by using a stable platform. To operate, simply extend the ramp, place a golf ball against the top surface, and let it roll.

 

Extend the ramp and let the ball roll!

Fast measurements & extra features

No need to carry extra measuring tools. Just extend the folding ramp to its full extension and measure the distance to determine the green speed. A 24-inch ruler is engraved onto the side of the Greens SpeedReader™ for easy, objective measurements.

Measurements in less than 10 seconds!

Folding ramp doubles as a ruler!


Professional USGA™ standards

 

Simply read the engraved speed guide to determine the speed. The speed guide is proportionately scaled to professional USGA standards. For example, a speed described as "slow" by the Greens SpeedReader would also be described as "slow" by professional standards.
