Great video. You just earned a new follower. What is your take on artificial turf putting greens and fringe. I sell them, so don't beat me up too bad if you are a purest. I am not a golfer myself. I see these range from $49.99 - $259.00. Is there any reason to invest a higher price unit? It looked like wind blowing. Does that matter? Thanks
Mositure content, firmness, dense turf. Usually if a green is firm, compacted, and less moisture they will roll very fast. However it is the skill of a greenkeeper to grow the plant healthy enough to not just go through that stress, but endure the beatings from rounds of golf and to drench them with water after and bring em back. Simply the firmness, compaction, plant health, and mousture content mainly. If you putted on a green where the turf blades were taller, itd be slower. The more water content can also slow the ball speeds. Its a cool science of a greenkeeper.
I just graduated with a 4 year degree in turf management. People go on for masters and phD’s surprisingly of how to grow grass haha! But theres a skill and science to it. But to simply answer your question. Main factors are typically the height of the plant, compaction of the soil, the moisture content, and desnity of the turf. Theres a lot more to it. However, those are the basics.
Thanks for the information provided in the video
this vid helped a lot.

Josh would be a great golf instructor
What throws people is it's measure in "seconds" so it's counter intuitive that higher seconds are faster
Just take all 6 measurements and divide by 6 to make it a bit more simple
Mantappp
is the distance yards or meters?
Feet lol

mind is blown lol
