Lawn Speed Calculator

Lawn Speed in Plummers =

Less than 8 is unplayable. 8-9 = Slow, 10= Normal,
​ 11/12 = Fast, 13+ = Very Fast
Instructions - see below
To utilise the calculator, launch a croquet ball directly upwards from the South boundary line and ensure it comes to a halt within a short distance of the North boundary. Record the duration from when the ball is hit until it stops and input it into the calculator. Next, measure the distance the ball has travelled. Since Hoop 2 is located 28 yards from the South boundary, simply add the number of yards beyond Hoop 2 to determine the total distance. Input this value into the calculator and select "calculate." The output is displayed in Plummers, named after its originator, Ian Plummer.
