Title: Practice putting green

Abstract: A practice putting green which is contourable relative to a reference surface to more closely approximate the actual surface of a putting green. The supporting surface, located beneath a resilient green-like covering, is divided up into plurality of planar sections fastened together by pieces of band steel attached to the undersides of the planar members, and spanning their abutting edges so as to allow the sections to move moderately relative to one another in a vertical direction. This surface in turn is supported by the reference surface and remote control elements are provided so that a wedge under the planar members may be moved in order to contour and decontour the surface.
