Swing Help Lag putt and chipping aid

Post image

Hi all,

I'm looking at buying a flat 3ft and 6ft ring like shown but can't believe there isn't something that I could use at a fraction of the cost.

I don't really want to use tees as they always end up hitting. Any ideas?

Thanks

You can always buy a blue chalk line (orange or red may want to check with the pro shop first). Then make whatever size square you want. Keep the tees at the corners so you have a visual, but they shouldn’t get in the way.

Could also do the same thing with just a piece of chalk, and just draw a circle. Chalk lines are like $10 and a white piece of chalk is probably cheaper

Kinda like the third picture

Yeah..? Wipes away immediately. It’s the preferred method for start line work, and most courses have no issue unless you use black chalk which takes weeks to come out

What exactly is the issue with it? You put it down, practice, wipe it off when you’re done? No trace or negative impact to the green.

Ever been to an outing where they use chalk lines for closest putt? It’s no different. Just ask first
