  Does it have an American flag and such? Have you gotten permission from the YancyMan?

  Was thinking about trying map the speeds of the tournament greens tonight, anybody able to recommed which holes to do this on.

  BPB 10 and 11- Easy to get on and have 8 putts to work with.

  yeah these green are oh so flat... NOT!  way to try to steer people off... you are so crafty.

  
  BPB... 2,3,6 and 9.   10 and 11... definitely not.

  Where did I say they were flat? What kind of jerk off slam is that-crafty?!! 

  Like I have a reason to steer anybody anywhere that doesn't help them. FWIW, they are flat and they happen to have a slope that is extremely beneficial in learning how slope affects putts. Get a real putter and try it.

  I thought Simmo was asking for a flat green to "map" - establish - the speed/distance of the T-greens.  
  
  You need a flat green to get accurate distances from putting strokes.  AFTER, you have established accurate distances, then you can gauge how elevation changes affect the established distance.
  
  I haven't played in 2 years+ and was trying to do the same as Simmo.  BPB 10 and 11 are useless in establishing accurate distance of putting strokes.
