Determining the correct start-line for any length putt is determined by 2 conditions.

(1) Speed of the surface you are putting on (friction).

(2) The amount of slope(side tilt and up/down) the ball will travel across on its way to the hole.

Once YOU as the player establish both those conditions, the S3Marker will assist you in selecting the correct launch angle from straight for every putt, regardless of length.

Each set comes with 4 different markers designed to adjust to changing course conditions.

Step 1

Feel

Utilize your feet to gauge both the direction and value of side tilt/slope. We recommend evaluating mulitple points in the middle section of the putt.

In this example, the highest slope value for this putt was 3% to the left.

Step 2

Align

Using the corresponding slope value number side, align your golf ball and S3Marker straight at the hole.

Step 3

TURN AND ROLL

With the S3Marker still in place, turn your golf ball in the opposite direction of the slope direction until the lines meet.

Your job is now to simply try and get the ball to roll end over end with speed that if missed, would stop 12 inches past the hole.

Q&A

Why use the S3marker?

Whether used as a training aid or during play, the S3Marker will provide you with immediate feedback regarding the accuracy of your slope read, face angle at impact, and speed. In addition, the S3Marker will show you just how little break you have been playing!!

Do I have to use my feet to feel the the slope?

The short answer is "no". If you prefer to evaluate the amount of break using your eyes, you can use the following classifications:

1. Minor break

2. Medium break

3. Major break

4. Severe break.

What if i don't have a stimp meter?

Most golf courses will be able to give you some idea about green speeds. As a general rule, Municipal/Public Courses =9; Private 10 to 11, Tour 11 to 12.

If you wish to be more exact, the S3 Marker will come with directions on how to determine the correct stimp in addition to using the S3Marker on double breaking putts and adjustments for uphill and downhill.
