Are you hitting every breaking putt? Or are you, like most
of us, saying, "Gee, I sure underestimated that break" or "Wow,
that putt broke way less than I thought"? The fact is, the
slope of the green is the single biggest factor in how much
your putt will break on the way to the hole. For most of the
distance of your putt, the force of your putter stroke is the
determining factor on how the ball will roll. But as the ball
slows down on its way to the hole, the power of your stroke has
progressively less effect as the force of gravity takes over.
This is why the ball breaks the most as it nears the hole.
Sometimes it's obvious which way a green is going to break, but
a lot of times it's just not visually apparent, particularly if
you're playing in a hilly or forested area where you can't find
a visible horizon line for reference. So how do you find the
true break of a green? The value of reading greens by
plumb-bobbing with your putter has been called into question by
leading putting experts. The reason is that you need to be
practically laying down on the green in order to read the rim
of the cup as a horizontal line intersected by the vertical
plumb line of your putter. Until now, there was simply no
reliable means of reading greens and lowering your score by
sinking those breaking putts. Enter the BreakMaster Digital
Green Reader. The BreakMaster Digital Green Reader will train
your eye to read breaking greens, find the exact breaks on the
greens you play and help you lower your score by making more of
those breaking putts. The BreakMaster is a precision electronic
device that accurately locates the downhill direction (or fall
line) of the green, measures the precise angle of slope (from
0.0 - 9.9 degrees) and provides a full readout of both on its
LCD display. To read a break, simply place the BreakMaster near
the hole on line with your putt and it will instantly show you
the downhill direction and exactly how many degrees of downhill
slope exist. The greater the angle of slope, the more the putt
will break downhill. The shallower the angle of slope, the less
the putt will break. The BreakMaster works equally well in
reading the severity of an uphill or downhill lie. Simply place
the BreakMaster ahead of your ball on line with the hole and
its readout will give you a good indication of how much to
adjust your stroke for uphill or downhill putts The BreakMaster
is slim and compact so it fits easily into a pocket without
spoiling your swing, it comes with a protective pouch and it's
weatherproof to withstand damp greens.

Golf training aid Review:
Los Angeles, CA (February 11, 2003)
"Ingenuity on an upward curve" was the headline
of equipment editor James Achenbach's column in
the 02.01.03 issue of Golfweek. In his review
of the hottest new products at the 2003 PGA
Merchandise Show, his column read: "If a
message emerged from the 2003 PGA Show, it was
this: The spirit of invention and innovation is
alive and well in the golf industry." Achenbach
singled out the Exelys BreakMaster as one of
the most innovative new products at the PGA
Show: "The BreakMaster Digital Green Reader
($59.95 from Exelys, 818-385-0824) was a close
second in the Pick of the Show race. This
device precisely measures the slope of a green
at any given position. For more than 100 years
at championships such as the U.S. Open, the
U.S. Golf Association has done this by hand to
ascertain whether a pin position is fair. The
BreakMaster does it automatically. This is a
wonderful little item for any tournament
committee or, for that matter, any golf course.
Golfers may want to own one for practice in
reading greens. Just place the BreakMaster on
the turf; it does the rest by indicating the
slope."

Golf training aid Review:
"Well, the fact of the matter is there was
absolutely no guessing or misreads while using
the BreakMaster and yes, four out of five putts
broke more than I would have thought with the
naked eye. It will dramatically (with practice,
of course) make a bad putter better, a good
putter a great one, and if you're a greater
putter than "Brad Faxon" your friends better
watch out!

Golf training aid Review:
"It takes me about three hours to map out
all the greens, but I figure that it saves me
at least one stroke per weekend."

Golf training aid Review:
"How many times have you read a putt to
break one way, and it broke the opposite? Or
you came up way short on an uphill putt, even
though you thought you struck the ball plenty
firm? Golf course designers love to deceive our
eyes by subtle use of the terrain surrounding a
green - whether mountains, mounds, or swales.
The BreakMaster can improve your understanding
of the green beyond human visual perception -
with a little research you can understand the
best places to hit it on the green, as well as
the areas to avoid."
