Can you put science and Putt Putt together?

It’s for a project and I need to know how to get started. I need to put mini golf or Putt Putt into science. Please and Thank you!!

Sure, geometry, force of the putter, speed of the ball, slope….pretty much physics in general.

Are putting greens in golf courses supposed to be sloping?

http://www.golfcenterofarlington.com/public/page.aspx?id=332

it’s sloping

Most golf greens are constructed with crown or slope to assist water runoff which prevents puddling in the event the ground sinks. Standing water is one of the true enemies of golf greens. In addition to assisting water run off slopes, hummocks,and uneven surfaces add character to the game. A player had to use the knowledge he gains through playing to conquer most golf greens.

How can I make an indoor golf hole to practice my putting?


If you want to be rather hardcore about it, you could buy one of those LINKSPUTT systems–you can fiddle with them so you’re putting uphill, downhill, on a slope, you name it! You can get them up to sixteen plus feet long!!!

They’re obscenely expensive, though–I can’t help but think you could probably build something that does the same thing at a much cheaper price. I suppose if you knew someone who had one, you could look the thing over and get a few ideas from how it is constructed.

mini golf geometry?

i am doing a geometry project on miniature golf where i have to present 5 facts about putt putt that are geometry.
other than the reflection of the ball bouncing off a wall i cant find any more info!!!!

please help!

~~~~

Geometric shapes are used in the layout of the hole. Usually rectangles. Some holes have hills that can illustrate the concept of slope. The golf club and head will form an angle. The hole itself is a cylinder intersecting a plane to form a circle. Have fun.

How can I improve putting a golf ball?

bought a new putter today..a two ball.

Have always been a good putt. I tend to think all golf swings are the same including putter, that is you have to keep you head still and eye fix at the ball. I’ve played snooker before and I think it helps.

With putt, first you read the line, the slope and the grass, then align your ball path, give it a point where you want your ball to stop (e.g. if it’s uphill you want the ball to stop after the hole, and down before the hole, break left right of the hole, and right left of the hole). Then, you pretty must know where your target is (like you would any golf shot), then execute it by eye fix on the ball, and have a good swing. Once you made up your mind on the target line, nothing else would help except positive thinking, just hit the shot as planned. Picture every putts go into the hole, that’s the only way it should be done, into the hole.
