Abstract: A description is provided herein of an apparatus comprising a golf ball having embedded electronic components that can measure how far said ball has rolled and its velocity during a putt across a putting surface. Elements of the ball fabrication are described which allow light to be transmitted to interrogation devices which respond depending on the orientation of the ball relative to external light sources. A correlation of light received at various parts of the ball provide an event signal which is interpreted by an on-board processor. Determination of current distance and speed is continuously calculated during the roll of the putted ball. Data is relayed to a secondary device capable of displaying the information to a golfer during putting practice sessions. This will help the golfer to train how hard to hit a putt so that it will roll a known distance.
