The Stracka Design Company has acquired two patents that will ensure exclusivity for The Stracka Line™. The Stracka Line™, simply put, is a style of golf yardage book that will give highly accurate information for reading a putt line while you on the putting green. It is a common perception that most yardage books are simply just souvenirs now. With advancing laser technology and GPS, most yardage books have in a way, become obsolete. The Stracka Line™ yardage book and greens guide put value back in the book.
The United States Patent Numbers 6,296,579 and 6,638,173 protect the intellectual property involved in making The Stracka Line™ yardage and greens guide.
The technology used to produce this information gathers millions of data points for each putting green to produce highly accurate measurements. (+/- 3 millimeters) So when looking at the contour lines and fall lines to analyze a putting line, one feels 100% confident that the information they are looking at is accurate. There is no subjectivity in the process.

The patents protect such things as the contour lines; smooth lines that give elevation changes on the green represented in 1-inch increments. The closer the lines are in relation to one another, the steeper the slope will be. The contour lines are used to estimate how much a putt will break. The patents also protect the fall lines, which will inform what direction the ball will roll on the green.
Dr. Lee Robinson says, “I thought of this idea in 1999 and got my first patent in 2001. I am very excited that The Stracka Design Company will bring my technology to the golfing world.”
Jim Stracka – Founder – The Stracka Design Company (www.Stracka.com) says, “As The Stracka Design Company continues to sign-up more golf courses to create yardage guides and greens guides, I am very pleased that other yardage book companies are excluded from using Dr. Robinson’s technology.”
