-
Step 1:
-
The surrounding landscape
-
Look at the landscape around the golf green. At first glance the green may seem flat, but you'll see that it actually slopes in the same way as the surrounding terrain.
-
Step 2:
-
Examine the green
-
Look for the highest point of the green and then for the lowest point. This way you can assess how the green slopes.
-
Step 3:
-
Feel with your feet
-
Simply walk beside your putt line the green and feel with your feet. You'll know if you're walking slightly uphill or downhill.
-
Step 4:
-
Look at your putt
-
Squat down between the golf ball and the hole, a few metres away from the line.
-
From this position you can see if it is a flat putt, or on a slope.
-
Step 5:
-
Watch other players
-
Never underestimate what you can learn from others! Simply watch what happens to the other golf players' putts to gain a good idea of the slope.
