Green speed is the thing you cannot guess from the first tee, and it changes course to course and week to week. Five minutes on a practice green before you play is the cheapest stroke saving available to any golfer, which is why it is worth knowing which courses have one. Most practice greens here are free to use if you have a tee time, and they are usually cut to the same height as the greens on the course, so the pace you feel is the pace you will get. Some of these courses also have a chipping area or a practice bunker alongside, which is where the real short game work happens.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the practice green free to use?

At almost every course, yes, if you are playing that day. Turning up only to putt is usually fine too, though it is polite to check with the pro shop.

Does the practice green match the speed of the course greens?

Generally yes, since most courses mow them on the same schedule. It is the closest read you will get before you reach the first green.
