Abstract
A greenspeed measuring device for quick and accurate measurement of the speed of a golf ball on a putting surface. The greenspeed measuring device includes an elongated shaft having a release end and a handle end opposite the release end, the shaft including a bottom side surface and a top side surface. The greenspeed measuring device also includes a ball rolling channel defined in the top side surface that extends from the release end. A ball holding notch is defined in the top side surface adjacent the channel. A handle is attached to the shaft at the handle end and is configured so that the handle end of the shaft can be independently held above a putting surface when the top side surface faces away from the putting surface.
