Make your own Stimp meter?

[Jay-Bird]

Has anyone here ever made a Stimp meter?

I've found several resources online, but am looking for the best, most accurate - results oriented process, materials used etc...

Just found that one, thinking about making one myself.

Good Luck!

Why would someone need a stimp meter? Just out of curiosity.

I was thinking the same thing, but would be pretty bada$$ to have!

Cant wait to see the guy on the practice green getting the speeds for the greens that day!

Why would someone need a stimp meter? Just out of curiosity.

I want to know what my carpets' (upstairs and downstairs) speeds are.

Also, I'd occasionally like to meter my muni's greens. They don't post the speeds - only the country clubs here actually post the speeds. The muni greens can run anywhere from ridiculously slow to surprisingly fast, but are rarely consistent. I'd like to be able to quantify my grumbling about how there's too much grass on the greens most days...

But the local muni's greens probably vary from hole to hole too....

You cant be busting out the meter every hole...

Though that would be freaking hilarious and awesome to witness!
