The Perfectstroke Putting Studio has recently been developed at the Lakelands Golf on Queensland’s Gold Coast, Australia.
The feature of the facility is a raised putting platform of 3 metres in length which can absolutely simulate putting conditions of the worlds best greens. The surface runs at around 13.5 on a stimp meter and is adjustable for left to right, right to left, flat and straight and uphill putts. It is indoors and is used by the Lakelands Golf Club golf professional staff to give putting lessons and in particular to use the SAM PuttLab system. SAM uses ultra sound to measure 28 variables in the putting stroke and golf instructors then use the extensive range of Perfectstroke products to improve any problem areas in the stroke. These products include the Perfectstroke Putting Aid which has been rated as the Number 1 Golf Putting Teaching and Training Aid in the World, the Perfectstroke Putting Line, Perfectstroke Putting Mirror and the Perfectstroke Channel Mirror.

All of my students have improved their putting and their scores dramatically since being tested on SAM and using the Perfectstroke putting products.”
The SAM system can be used in a training mode so that students don’t have to be supervised by an instructor all the time..
