An instrument used to measure the speed of a green .
a ramp that allows for consistent and fair measurement of green speed on a particular course
Superintendents measure green speed with a stimpmeter. Its readings give a snapshot of the green speed at that time of day. Stimpmeter readings in the five to six range mean slow greens, seven to eight mean medium, nine to 10 fast and above 11 extremely fast - Pro Tournament speeds.
This is an instrument used to gauge the speed of a green. A ball is rolled down it from a fixed height and how far it travels will indicate the stimp reading: 5 or 6 is slow, 7 or 8 medium, 9 or 10 fast and 11 or 12 is extremely fast.
