Does anyone have a particularly good repair tool to recommend? After reading this thread, I think almost all of the repair tools I have seen and used would fall into the unacceptable category. I would like to do my part to keep the courses I play in top shape.

I just wanted to thank everyone for taking the time to touch on this issue. I am ashamed to say that I have been repairing ballmarks incorrectly for some time. Thanks to everyone here for clarifying the exact way to repair marks.

Jeez, I feel like a doofus. I was taught the pry up method a long time ago, and always assumed that was correct. Now I know, and I'll put my Scotty tool in a drawer somewhere! :)

Less brown dead spots on the greens is beneficial for everyone, I mean you all had the right intentions in trying to get rid of the dents made on the green. Now with the proper technique there are no side-affects . It's unfortunate that I believe the vast majority of those fixing their ball marks incorrectly will never come across this forum or anything close to being as informative. So at least those that were previously fixing their ball marks incorrectly on this forum went out of their way to become more informed about golf and it's intricacies.

thanks for the link. I'm looking forward to getting out there and making a huge divot and then fixing it correctly. it'll be fun. I too was a brown spot maker. Sorry. I'll be spreading the love to everyone I know now.

Since TGW doesn't sell prison shanks I'd say the Greenfix Wizard Repair tool is the best option.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
