Green Locator
The green locator has been in development for over 6 years with information gathered from various sources.

*The locations shown on the file may be incorrect at the moment but with your help the file can be improved.

Much Improved
The Green Locator Google Earth file Download is a Google Earth overlay file, containing currently known bowling greens.

To use it, you will firstly require a copy of Google Earth on your computer. Then, download the file from our site. Depending on your computer's settings, Google Earth will either start immediately, or you might be prompted to save the file first.

If you have to save it, ensure that it is saved with the file extenstion .kmz, then double-click the file to open it.

In the sidebar, under 'Places', you will see the Clubs organised into folders by areas of the crown green bowling world. Double-clicking on any club name in the list will make you 'fly' to that green.

When you close Google Earth for the first time after downloading the file, you might be prompted with a message telling you that you have 'Temporary Places' and would you like to move them to 'My Places'. If you want to be able to use the Green Locator overlay on future occasions without downloading it again, save it to 'My Places', otherwise it will be discarded.

Improvements to the file will continue and better versions will be announced on this website.
