Default OT question on laser diodes / visibility in sunlight

Being a lousy golfer, thought I'd put a laser on my putter,
maybe a line type, for aiming and more importantly, straightness..
The 4 milliwatt red ones don't show up, how are the higher power
ones, green ones etc., anyone tried? /thanks / mark the duffer


The green ones are easier to see the path of the laser, and the dot is
brigher, but I don't think you'll be able to see the path unless you golf
in heavy overcast or night. If you just need to see the dot, you should
do ok with a green one. 15mw should do.
