    • @robertfudge985
      @robertfudge985 23 дні тому

      Plenty of reputable sources you can find with a quick Google search. Basic idea is, put in your repair tool at about a 45 degree angle and PUSH UP toward the center of the mark. Then tamp it down with your putter head. Don't rock the tool back (or twist it, as one person suggested), as that causes more damage that will, in time, create a brown, dead spot.

    In our recent pennant match at Sun City Country Club in Perth Western Australia on the sensational Par 3 14th Hole (redesigned by Mike Clayton of Barnbougle Dunes fame) two players halved their hole in ones from 154 metres! First Ian Gompertz holed his 7 iron, then Rob Clement with nothing to lose let fly with a 6 iron - and in she went!! An expensive day for them with the bar full and beers all round😂😂
