It has a slope figure, height above/below the hole, but not a change in elevation.

If it has heights above/below the hole, isnt that elevation??

But in knowing nothing about how to actually play golf, it is probably impossible to learn.

I thought magnet meant a dynamic change in elevation, where it changes depending on where you are and where you are aiming at. This looks to be just a standard height above/below the hole throughout.

Well, its not exact, but it is pretty much a direct correlation.

What I mean is that if you are shooting at a target 5 feet below your lie, you will hit it about 5 feet farther than you plan.

Okay. But it seems as though it is way above my level.
But thanks for the help, anyway.

Looks like everyone has disappeared. Sorry for wrecking the thread with all my junk.

Magnet, thanks for trying to help, and I'll try again, but I'm not sure I can get better, as I know very little about golf.

No one picks up a club (or virtual club, as it were) and masters it on day 1. It takes time!

I wish I hadn't said anything about me playing the game. You are all trying to help me, and what do I do about it - nothing. I'm just a damn attention seeker who should know better.

BTW, putting is definitely uber-hard until you get good at reading the breaks and slopes of the greens.

Hey, it gets us more posts, and it might help someone else out who needs it but is too shy to ask!
