Kor.A.Door Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 My putting handicap is probably close to a 0. It's where all my scoring comes from. I track my putts and average 27.6 putts per round...and while that stat can be deceiving, depending on greens in regulation, I still believe it's the most solid part of my game. 27.6 is pretty strong. If you base par for putting at 36. That would putt you around +6 Hcp. So that would be a strong part of the game. I use my phone so I can't see your Hcp. If you are shooting say 85 and you are +6 on putting, to me that means you have trouble either with tee shots or irons shots, or both, you are losing about 17-20 strokes before reaching the green. Not you, but someone who would have 27.6 putts, and scoring in the mid 80's, so to me in that scenario, the putting Hcp only shows that you are a good putter, how does that help you improve in the rest of your game. So is losing 2-3 strokes putting because you are spending more time on he irons or tee game worth it if you can gain 12 strokes from tee to green. So you go from hitting 2 greens in reg to hitting 12 greens in reg, you have gained 10 strokes, maybe you don't putt as well and have 31 putts you lose 4 strokes putting so instead of 85 you score 79. I guess I'm just trying to figure out how to use the information on putting to help me improve the rest of my game Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I view it as "are you putting as well as you could"? As mentioned earlier, putting is one part of the game that us ams can do as well as the pros... with enough practice. I hit a lot of fairways, but I don't hit the ball far enough to come into greens with short irons. I don't think working on my long game will get me the distance needed, unless I somehow increase swing speed by 10 mph. At my age I don't see that happening. I suppose I could move up a tee box, but I'm not ready to do that yet. So, I either have longish putts or chips. I can make an occasional long putt, but I cannot afford to 3-putt. I chip fairly well, so most putts are fairly short but I cannot afford to miss those either. Sometimes I miss and sometimes I 3-putt. How well I putt determines whether I break 80 or not. If I have 28-30 putts/round, I can shoot 75; if I have more than 35 putts/round, I'm probably shooting around 85, but I'm not shooting 75 with 35 putts. So, I have to putt like a scratch player in order to maintain my 8 index. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big money Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 My strongest part of my game next to chipping.Would say it would be a real strong 2 or 3 handicap putting game.Rest of the game is a work in progress.Getting better, but still miles to go. I've always been such a solid putter.At times it was the only thing keeping me somewhat competitive.Can really see and feel a green well.Average very low 30 to high 20's for 18 hole putts total.With a low of 11 for 9 holes and 25 for 18 Keep it in the short stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungkory Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Average 33 putts per round . It's definitely the weakest part of my game. Best GiR is 67% according to The Grint, my average is 44%. Something to work on though, and I enjoy the grind when it produces measurable results.

I would not say I am a good putter, but I also don't think I am a poor putter either, I just don't make very many putts that other people do make. I look at putts per round as did my putting hirt my score, there's always going to be what if's after the round, but if I look at it in terms of putting par (36) putts, 2 per hole, and I stay under that number, that tells me that putting did not hurt my round, so the shots that I lost to par were other than putting. So if I average 34 putts a round I should be ok with that, what I need to look at is what shot, or types of shots were the ones that cost me. Did I miss the green and my chipping was bad or did I hit a tee shot into the woods, if I have 27 putts in a round I will probably be around level par. So I guess the idea for me is to figure out which part to work on to lower my scores, do I really work on putting and get to the point where I am averaging 27-29 putts, or do I put more effort into my irons so I can hit more greens which will also lower my scores, do I work on one then the other, or do I work on both at the same time. Which one is easier to get the fastest gains. Which one is the low hanging fruit so to speak. Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one is easier to get the fastest gains. Which one is the low hanging fruit so to speak. IMO it's both. As Rev always says, get the ball closer to the hole on approach shots. Working on that will certainly lower scores. How close will better approach shots get with more practice? OK, working on irons will likely improve GIR, but unless you hit shots within 8 feet, it likely still results in a two-putt unless you get very good at that distance. But what about the greens that you do miss? Can you get that wedge shot close enough to one-putt? Personally, I think it's easier to make the fastest gains by practicing chips and putts, but you need to do both to score well. I would never be happy with averaging 2 putts per hole. With a little more practice I know it can be better. If shots miss the green as in my case, then I'm throwing away strokes when I don't one-putt. The top pros get up and down from around the green about 2 out of 3 times. I'd like to get there; I'm a little better than 50%. Sometimes it's poor chipping; sometimes it's poor putting. I work on both a lot. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardcoreLooper Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 For the 6 rounds I've played with Arccos, it tells me that I have a 1.2 putting handicap. As Theedpat said earlier, I more than make up for this with lousy ball striking to bring my index up to 7.0. This does tell me that I should spend my practice time on the much weaker parts of my game, like driving and approach shots. I could easily knock a shot off my index by keeping the ball on the golf course for all 18 holes. I throw away at least one shot per round with penalties/pitch outs after bad drives.

Undershooter Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I'm sorry but statistically that adage has turned out to be a myth. I have to call people on it every time it comes up because it stunts people's growth. The best players are the best ball strikers. Driving is hugely important - typically you cover 60 percent of the golf course with your tee shots (including Par 3's). Putting covers 10 percent or less. It's not irrelevant but it is often over rated. Most shots played with putter could be played successfully with any club in the bag. Beyond three putt avoidance putting is the one area that an amateur can be the equal of a touring pro. Do that and you will gain a few strokes per round. Drive it like a touring pro and you will gain way more. You will also become a better putter over night, shorter shots, closer to the hole, fewer putts. You really need to find your true putting handicap. My suspicion remains that the original poster doesn't putt as poorly as he thinks. People have an over inflated view of what putt is makeable and where their 50/50 is. You need to know those things to reasonably manage expectations and to know what to practice - assuming you have a limited amount of practice time. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy 100% this.Ballstriking > Putting People don't realize how low make percentages are even for pros. 3 putt avoidance is key for amateurs but people need to learn what is realistic as far as make percentages.

Undershooter Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 . I swear, sometimes I don't know what to think about your analogies. What's a myth is the average weekend golfer being able to do anything with any vague comparison to that of a tour pro. Fyi, amateurs stats closely mirror that of pros stats. They are just obviously worse by comparison.This has been covered pretty extensively by some of the systems that ams use to help their games. Arcos, the grint, etc... Not to mention MGS' research and Mark Brodie's. Edit: i have no stats for my own putting but I'd guess that it is somewhat around my actual handicap. I'm a streaky putter. My biggest struggle is reading grainy greens.

One the great things about Game Golf (and other stat trackers) is that you can see the immense amount of fluctuation in certain stats from round to round. If you don't understand that the short-term stats are noise and the long-term stats are signal, you'd go nuts. Putting is a stat that really goes up and down each round, because (no big news here) there's a huge difference between a round in which you're solidly two-putting everything, leaving gimmes on your first putts, and a round in which four of those gimmes end up dropping on the first putt instead.

HardcoreLooper Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 3 putts. Yes and no. Pros 3 putt nearly 10% of the time from beyond 25 feet (https://www.golftec.com/blog/2017/09/golf-stats-pga-tour-putting-averages/). If you're 3 putting 50% of the time from > 25 feet then yes, you can probably work on your lag putting and see a significant improvement in your scoring. If you're missing 25% of your 3 footers then again, you can see significant improvement just by working on your putting. Once you get to being a competent putter, you're going to want to start devoting more practice time to ball-striking. You're going to have fewer putts per round by hitting better approach shots that finish closer to the hole (when they hit the green) and miss in better places (when you do miss).

Brian A Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Funny thing I was thinking of this morning. So yesterday my wedge game wasn't as good as usual, and I had hit a few more greens from further away, so I was facing longer putts. Normally average 13 putts per 9 at this course, yesterday I had 19.

RoverRick Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Most golfers have it backwards. They focus on distance off the tee and the line of the putt. The fastest way to improve your scores is to focus on direction off the tee and distance on the green. You generally do not miss the hole with a putt by 5-10 feet left or right, but you can easily be that much short or long. This leads to easily missing with the next putt. Also, hitting the drive 50 yards shorter or longer is not as punishing as hitting it 50 yards into the woods. I'm just getting back to playing after an absence and luckily my putting was great since the first day back. My focus is mainly on hitting the tee shot straight, getting it close to (preferably on) the green, and then getting it close to the hole, either with the wedge or the putter, it doesn't matter, it counts the same. Then either getting the ball out of the hole or making that short putt.

Kanoito Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 . No offense, but shooting in the high 90s suggests you're not hitting many greens in regulation (if any) - and as a result it's easy to have decent putting stats if you're chipping on to most greens and leaving yourself comparatively short putts. That's exactly my case. Sitting at a 16 index and about 25 putts per round. A lot of short putts thanks to good chips. And shoot anywhere between 80 and 90.

kingcscott Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 That's exactly my case. Sitting at a 16 index and about 25 putts per round. A lot of short putts thanks to good chips. And shoot anywhere between 80 and 90.25! you can't possibly average 25. That is a good above average day for a pro. That is 11 one putts a round and 7 two putts. That is not a lot of wiggle room.
