Abstract:
A configurable flexible putting green system and methods provide a golf putting experience on a highly configurable simulated putting green surface. A movable, flexible turf belt is tensioned between storage devices at each end of the turf belt. A portion of the turf belt is configured as a putt spot, supporting the player's weight and simulating a real putting experience. The system is provided with actuators underneath the turf belt for creating a variety of undulations, inclinations, and declinations so as to simulate a wide variety of golf putting scenarios. A golf computer is provided for controlling the turf belt and undulators to simulate golf putting conditions according to a database of simulated golf putting terrain matching existing golf courses.

Claim (Index 10):
The system of  claim 8  further characterized in that the golf computer is operable to control the turf belt to return a putted ball to a player by moving said turf belt toward the putt spot, and then control the position of said turf belt thereby disposing said golf putting hole at a desired distance from said putt spot, the position of said golf putting hole determined by a player's simulated position on a virtual golf course.
