This is good for the last couple of feet to the hole. The best way to see grain is "shiny"=fast, "dull or dark" = slow. If you get both then pray!
Seems to me, that when the sun is behind me the grass looks shiny.
When the sun is in front of me, the grass looks dull. Should I be looking
at the grass from the side?
I thought I knew my home course! Turns out, I know Jack @##@!!!!

Once again just a reference. Walk around and you should see one side shinier than the other. this would be "down grain" and will be faster and less likely for a ball to check up as well.
Since we are talking green reading, sheens etc . Do you have any thoughts in regards to sunglasses; polarized , non polarized, green, brown? Is there a trend on tour or is it a personal preference sort of deal.
I have trouble wearing them but bright low light can make it hard to get a read sometimes. Almost as hard as hitting it where I am aiming but that is another story.

Really enjoying your threads.

I wear Peakvision because they have the least amount of distortion I have found, and they do not change the colors much. They tend to take the glare out and I can wear them in even low light situations. My eyes are very light sensitive so I have a hard time functioning without them.
I do not know what is popular on tour but I would love to know if something is better. I do know that many players do not wear them to read greens or putt. Once again personal preference prevails.

For those that wear prescriptions, Peak Vision has a great product. More than a few have gotten headaches looking through my specs.
