Multiplayer Modes (Play 9 & Online): These modes are as close as it gets to actual on-course putting. The main principle is to drop you on a green (in regulation) and putt out from there. It usually puts you at between 20-40ft with some sort of break. Each player has a unique putting line and distance, so the player furthest out gets to hit first and then rotates on the longest putt until all players are in the hole or within the 2ft gimme. The score is the number of putts + the GIR strokes. PXL_20241010_023043100~2.mp4 As for the settings of each mode, you can change course, green speed, number of holes, # of players Play 9 · Can play solo · Able to turn on Recommended line/speed Online play · Can bet points per hole · Play 3 or 9 holes · 45 Second time limit per putt · Emojis – You have a selection of Emojis to communicate with other players The only recommendation is allowing options for playing different # of holes 3, 6, or 9, Also I think, the ability for simultaneous putting would speed up a round. It can play visually play your putt rather than the opponent’s putt. This may be a small thing but would make it feel more gamified. Time ≈ 15-30 Minutes Depending on the number of players PXL_20241010_023043100~2.mp4

Sorry hoped off for the night. I think BOS did the same.

That Birdie putt really saved me on that last 9. My general rule of thumb for distance is every inch of slope is +-1ft of distance. So 36' put 2" up hill is closer to 38' There were a few insane breaks though.

I think you need to work on your Exputt iron game because you have been first to putt almost every time.

Ugh, We are both scrambling on these bogies.

Yep I'm still on

@buckpillar @Wolfstrum I'm on if you or anyone else wants to play. pozzit password 3333

Practice Mode: This is the most valuable spot in the software, it is basically a Driving range session for putting. Get a yardage….hit that yardage. With the default settings to be a flat putt no break or slope, it allows you to better dial in distances, putter path, direction, tempo, and impact angle. You get immediate feedback on if you made it, how far off you may have been, and see the stats that may have caused it. Where Practice mode really shines is, in the analytics which aggregates your sessions to start to give you information to show where you are or aren’t improving. It goes deep into specific stats (Distance, Impact Angle, Path) and then breaks each down by distance (0-15ft,15-30ft, 30-50ft). This should help show you how you what has changed with each metric over time. Once you start to understand your weak points you can start playing with the settings more. You can narrow down the distance window to get specific practice, you can add slope/slant, or change green speed for faster or slower courses. You can also change your “Distance Mode” to allow Random, Fixed, or increasing yardages. Once you have 5 sessions under your belt it starts to show you more data about your progress over time. There is also an analysis mode that gives a baseline of 18 random putts to measure how you do and add an entry into your Putting stats Quick Comment about the Mobile app. The only thing the app allows you to do is use practice mode but you can't save your data. This means all the benefit from the analytics is lost.

@buckpillar @Wolfstrum Yep I'm game for that aim for 8pm Central time?

Anyone up for a Match this week?

Nope it's only first putt. I think distances very between 15-50ft but with slope can be like a 5 to 60+ft

Challenge Mode: One of the Game modes in Exputt is the Challenge Mode. This mode is a bit unique to the rest of the modes I have played. The premise of this game is very similar to how most of us may practice on a putting green. You get 3 putts to get within the 3ft gimmie range. You need to play break and slope to get the right putt. If you get within range on your first putt you get 10 points, 2nd putt gives you 5 points and 3rd attempt gets you 2 points. If you make any of the putts its an extra 3 points. I really like this mode because it blends Practice with Play mode. Since you get 3 attempts you can actually learn from the putt to help directly play with what you’re trying to work on. It also gives a good gamification with the point system. This mode allows you to see a few metrics (Speed, Path Angle, Putt distance) Like I said before the fact that this is a great representation of Putting Green practice. The only improvements I would suggest Exputt to add to this more is the option for hitting all 3 putts for more points/practice and allow for the 3 or 6 holes to be played for quicker sessions. Actually there is one more thing that would really improve this. some Score history, I went back in to do another Challenge mode and there is no visibility of your previous scores or sessions. This seems to be a theme across a most of their software outside of the practice analysis stats. Time Required ≈25 PXL_20240926_020610634~3.mp4

Sorry completely forgot about playing last night. Hope you got all your house issues resolved. Let me know when you are up for another game.

So you can move the "Aim Distance from Hole" to read 0.0 and yes then hit a "Straight" putt. But this was new to me so trying to read the break was always a crap shoot. I'm curious if @buckpillar knew about it that is how he beat me in most of the multiplayer rounds. (Just kidding looks like Multiplayer is the only game mode that doesn't allow that screen)

I do have a Garmin R10 and would absolutely love the ability to pair them for the same simulation system. I have tried to dual path a simulation round by playing the holes on E6 then hitting putts in Explorer mode on the Exputt then Manually entering the #of putts in E6. It is cumbersome, to say the least, with 2 displays, manually moving a point to match distance and then waiting for the next. Being integrated would make a world of difference in being more emmersive.
