Angeles National Green Speeds

The Greens are approaching "Master's Speeds" and are rolling at 13'.5" +.

What is a Stimpmeter?

The Stimpmeter is an extruded aluminum bar, 36 inches long, with a V-shaped groove extending along its entire length. It has a precisely milled ball-release notch 30" from the tapered end (the end that rests on the ground).

The ball-release notch is designed so that a ball will always be released and start to roll when the Stimpmeter is raised to an angle of approximately 20 degrees. This feature ensures that the velocity of the ball will always be the same when it reaches the tapered end.

Masters Week April 2-8 2012

The PGA tour’s first major is closing in, and at Angeles National, we are readying ourselves for Masters week, April 2 - April 8.

Our goal is to have the greens at Angels National in "Masters like conditions" . We will not be able to produce the deep lush green look and bright blooming Azaleas, but we are looking to speed up the greens, as fast as we can get them for that week.

In doing so, our objective is to get the greens rolling at 12’ – 0” or above.

The first step in this process is to alternate our mowing and rolling of the greens. One day we will mow and one day we will roll the greens. As we get closer to April, we will start to double cut and roll the greens to not only help speed them up but also keep them nice and smooth.

Your assistance is important in helping us achieve perfect greens and more enjoyable playing conditions on the course. This time of the year greens and fairways are not growing as quickly as other times of the year. Please repair your ball marks and fill fairway divots, turf recovery from normal wear takes longer during the winter months.

Thank you for visiting. We plan to continue to update the green speeds, conditions and process as we approach "Masters Week".
