Not sure what stats they give you at the end for each player, but presumably there is at least #/% putts made by each? Yeah, Play Mode does't keep the stats like Practice mode does. You just putt on that hole and move on. 4 hours ago, cnosil said: Haven’t used play mode at all, but I recall reading that each players putts are different to avoid learning the line from a previous player.

Meaning yesterday I used my Scotty Cameron 5.5 for the entire session. Previously I have used my Spider X. One thing I may do during this weeks Practice Mode is do a 50 putt session with the SC, end that one save all the stats, then immediately do one with my Spider X and see how the data differs. In addition to the ball speed--immediately after impact, and the putter path, it also measures face angle at impact. Both of those are illustrated in two places in the screen shot I provided. Right below the practice time and number of putts, then again in the lower right hand corner they are presented as numbers. cksurfdude, MaxEntropy, sirchunksalot and 5 others 8 Quote G430 Max 10K TSiR1 15.0 Aldlia Ascent 60g TSR2 18.0 PX Aldila Ascent 6og TSi1 20 Aldila Ascent Shafts R T350 5-GW SteelFiber I80 SM10 48F/54M and58K S159 48S/52S/56W/60B Select 5.5 Flowback 35" ProV1 Play number 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cnosil Posted July 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2020 Well, I am sure one of the questions on everyone's mind is does the ExPutt practice translate to the course. Here are some initial thoughts on my on course putting over my normal weekend round and 9 hole league round. Right now my summary would be that I am in the middle of taking lessons and some things with my putting just aren't working right but I am trying to get through them. My typical struggle is longer putts 30'+ and leaving the ball short and over those 27 holes I have had a few putts greater than 30'. With the Exputt I have been practicing using a green speed of 9 which seems to translate pretty well on the practice green. Today I was rolling all kinds of long breaking putts within 3 feet of the hole. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get that to translate to the course. Over those 27 holes I have had 9 putts of 27' or more and have 3 putted 6 of them. While that sounds horrible, I am still encouraged because the putts are going past the hole by 5 or more feet and most have been downhill. The reason that I feel like I am in the middle of lessons is because I am training new distance feels which has impacted tempo and stroke. Right now I am optimistic that the distance putting will get better. Another think that I want to do is go measure the practice greens on a few local courses to see what speed they are rolling. Obviously, we are just at the beginning of this experiment so come back for more updates. yungkory, MDGolfHacker, sirchunksalot and 10 others 13 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMookie Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I did an analysis as well on Sunday when I had the EXPUTT set-up in our front “living room”. Taking a look at my graphs, I have quite a bit of fluctuation in some. With this mode running in practice, it can be saved, and then stats change with each subsequent round. Really cool! By-the-way, I sent my stats to the guys at SeeMore to see if the think any tweaks to my putter could improve the numbers. We’ll see!

From what I read so far, the camera is just analyzing path / speed but no putter club head data (ie launch / face impact). I haven’t because the ONLY other putter I have is my Dad’s old Anser from the 70s, which is significantly lighter than my SeeMore. I tried the Anser on-course earlier this year, and it’s just not playable on the greens I play. I’ll give it a go on the EXPUTT, but I only think it will do well on the shorter putts. artful_golfer, cksurfdude, daviddvm and 1 other 4 Quote Driver: Ping G430 Max 9*, Ping Tour 70X Fairway: Ping G425 15*, Ping Tour 70X Hybrid: Ping G425 22*, Ping Tour 80X Irons: Ping i230 4-GW, TT DG X100 Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 Ball: Titleist 2023 AVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PMookie Posted July 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2020 In my first few times using EXPUTT I was able to see my “pull” on putts inside 6 feet, just like on-course. After just three practice sessions, in Sunday’s round of real golf, I had only one pull! I was able to keep my putter on a better path overall. With the face angle and putting path reads by the Exputt showing on-screen on each putt, it’s easy to start correcting those issues right away. One thing I have noticed is that I’m in-to-out with my path, but I have a slightly closed face. Results in Exputt are just like on-course: most putts miss to the right! It’s SO early in testing, but what I’m seeing so far is really cool!!!! Take a look at the pics below. In the bottom right is “putter path” and “impact angle”. In the bottom right of each of those boxes you can see the overall running average for that practice session! sirchunksalot, goaliewales14, MaxEntropy and 7 others 8 2 Quote Driver: Ping G430 Max 9*, Ping Tour 70X Fairway: Ping G425 15*, Ping Tour 70X Hybrid: Ping G425 22*, Ping Tour 80X Irons: Ping i230 4-GW, TT DG X100 Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 Ball: Titleist 2023 AVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thing is looking like it might be something I have to try. Maybe I'll Homer Simpson someone and "gift" it to them in the hopes that they'll let me use it hehe. The mat never really concerned me since most of my at home practice is withing that distance anyway (yardstick, and gates for startline). The whole concept just makes sense; the camera measures that roll on the mat and calculates speed, direction, watches the putter and captures path. It really is just a big math problem; I'll post some more about that later. sirchunksalot, cksurfdude, MDGolfHacker and 4 others 7 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cksurfdude Posted July 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2020 Practice Mode / Mega Putt Contest First - big thanks to @Golfspy_CG2 for suggesting this .. normally I would not spend hours in a row rolling hundreds of putts, but it turned out to be a great way to become more familiar with using the ExPutt. For this practice session I chose a Green Speed of 10 - which feels reeeally fast to me, but I struggle with distance control on fast greens; and Distance of Random from 5 to 10 feet - as these are the putts I'd like to increase my make percentage on (and I'm thinking I'll work my up to longer distances a step at a time). After the initial setup of the system the other day, I rolled a few putts to start to get the feel of how the ExPutt works ... and those first few putts were somewhat awk-weird and were a bit all over the place. This practice session for the mega putt contest went much better! It was really helpful to just keep rolling putts, working on hitting them straight and at the right distance each time .. which of course varied from putt to putt in Random mode - so changing speed each time was also really great putting practice! In the following is an overview of my results and some impressions of actually using the ExPutt..... Golfspy_CG2, PMookie, GolfSpy_BNG and 7 others 9 1 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

During setup of the mat and camera the user manual give you dimensions for min/max height of camera plus horizontal distance of mat based on the cam's height; note these ranges have some latitude. Then when you turn on the camera you can pan and tilt until the mat looks "square" to you .. then when everything looks good the system will search for the mat and give you on-screen directions if you need to adjust anything. Each time you turn on the system/camera it will perform the search to make sure it can properly see the whole mat. I have it all in a fixed location in the basement, so the physical setup is constant and each time I turn on the cam it finds the mat. In another step of testing I plan to compare the ExPutt numbers to ones generated by Blast Motion Golf. artful_golfer, Golfspy_CG2, MDGolfHacker and 5 others 7 1 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

I am also regretting that I did not apply for this one. Haven't had the chance to play since getting this, but I can definitely tell that as my mega putt session went on I was getting more putts in and more of the misses left much closer .. so looking forward to more practice time!!

Popular Post Golfspy_CG2 Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 I got out and played 11 holes today before the rain came. I will say the time I spent on the Practice mode earlier this week definitely paid off. If no where else than in my setup and club path. I hit a few 12 to 15 footers dead on line that died maybe 4 to 7 inches short. I asked our Super who I was playing with what the greens were rolling. He said a little less than 9. Do to the extreme heat we've had he can't cut them to short. This made sense, as I have been using 10 on practice mode. But keeping cognizant of my face angle and path is a direct result of the feedback from my session on EXPUTT.

Popular Post cnosil Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 I am sure @Golfspy_CG2 will be mad at me because I didn't include any photos in this intro, but its purpose is to get to know me and my initial impressions. Trust me there will be lots of photos and videos in the near future. About Me: To get started, my name is Chris and I am a recovering putter ho. I’ve been playing golf off and on since my early teens and weekly since the 90s. When I got serious about golf the putter became my favorite club. I never had a large collection of putters (10 is probably the most I have owned at one time) but have gone through a variety of putters through the years. In 2011 I found a putting specific instructor on another golf forum and have been working with him since that point in time. He taught me all about the putting stroke and how it works and I use the guidance he provided to target specific putter specifications when I am purchasing new putters. For those that don’t know I have been one of the testers for MyGolfSpy’s Most Wanted testing. I typically participate in almost all of the club tests but I really like the blade and mallet putter tests. Outside of my interest in golf, one of the things that I think qualifies me for this testing is my occupation; I am involved in software testing. My Golf Game: At my best I was playing to a 4 handicap but over the past few years my handicap has been going the wrong way. I do consider putting one of my strengths but can have some bad streaks. I practice putting a lot. Most evenings when watching television, I setup some gates or putt down a yardstick to work on matching up path and face angle. Since I can’t roll long putts in the house and Most Wanted Testing only goes to 20’ my weakness is lag putting; specifically, 30’+ is my problem area. I haven’t tracked my putting in a while, but when I did, I averaged about 31 putts per round. I will be evaluating my improvement based on 3 putt avoidance and how I perform in the 5-15 foot range. My current putter is an Odyssey Ten S but as part of this test I will include an EvnRoll 2.2, Bobby Grace 6330, and a couple of old ping putters. First Impressions: This is typically where you start to see photos of the product but since a new review template was developed we have already started dropping some info about the product and photos….so no photos or videos here (:, but there will be lots more as we go through test. I had heard of the product prior to its being offered for testing and since I love putting, I knew I wanted to apply. After being selected, we received the product within days of providing our mailing information. Packaging: The product came in an ExPutt branded cardboard box containing 2 boxes for the product. The first being the putting mat and carry bag. The second contained the camera, cables, mounting accessories, remote, face stickers, and user manual. Overall a professionally packaged product that would survive some bouncing around Setup: Setup is very straight forward, hook up some cables, roll out the mat, turn it on and start practicing. Time from box to working is less than 5 minutes. The quick setup is advantageous since I put the product away after use. I have tried various size TVs and all generally work; the only issue is that you may have to change the HDMI mode to get the extreme left and right screen edges to be visible. Some of my TVs don’t have this feature and while a minor inconvenience my OCD makes it bothersome. The camera can be attached to the TV or can use the included stand. I personally needed to move a second TV into my Den since I like to watch TV while I practice putting. Product Quality: All the components appear to be high quality. The mat is thick and is a rubber type material One minor complaint is that it seems to attract pet hair as mine stays covered. Fortunately, lint rollers work well to remove. Portability: While I would say the product is portable (the shipping box is 11.5x16x6) is isn’t something you just put in your carry-on to take with you on an airplane. Measured Data: when putting on the mat, there is an outlined area to place the ball. Once the ball has been struck the system will provide putter path, face angle, ball speed, and launch direction. Pretty basic information but should be adequate enough to personally analyze your putting stroke. Modes of Operation: there are three modes of operation that will be covered as we progress through the testing process Practice – straight putts to holes of between 5 and 50 feet. I foresee this will be where I would spend most of my time. Challenge – scored performance on greens with various slopes. Play – Play against your friends. Unfortunately, no online play mode. General Comments: We have had the product for about a week and while I haven’t gotten too deep into testing my initial impressions are favorable. Some things of note: Lighting – this aspect of the product appears to be crucial and in low lighting conditions, the system will struggle to capture ball data and club data even with the provided face stickers. I need to do more investigation to determine if providing direct lighting to the mat will improve this. Balls – Ball selection does have an impact especially color. The user manual states that you should use a clean white ball; but some of us don’t read the manual so I tried a variety of colors and finishes. Dark matte balls and truvis balls seem to be susceptible to not being read after being hit. Measurements – While the measurements seem to be accurate, I believe there is too much weight for face angle. From what I have read in documentation from putting gurus is that the face angle at impact has and 80-85% include on direction and the putters path the remainder. When I did the calculations of launch angle, it looks like the face angle has a 95% influence on direction. For a player that struggles to have consistent path, this may impact on course performance. golfingbrock, Golfspy_CG2, MattF and 12 others 15 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GolfSpy_BNG Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Just got caught up on this whole thread and you guys are killing it! Like others have said I am really intrigued to see how this helps with distance control. That seems to be my biggest issue causing 90% of my 3 putts.

That is what I was going to mess around with next time I set it up. I am guessing that it isn't about how much light is in the room but how much is on the mat. Having enough light on the mat enables the camera can see the various marks.

PMookie Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Well... At a loss tonight. I set-up the Exputt in the bedroom again, and again tonight it had trouble giving me path numbers to start. I brought in another lamp, moved it around some, and it finally started to pick-up. BUT.... For some reason my path went from 2.9* average in-to-out, to now 5.9* in-to-out. Really odd. I then moved the Exputt across the room and tried again. Same thing..... No matter what I did on the through swing, it was showing in-to-out. I moved the lamp, changed the ball, even changed to my Dad’s putter, and STILL 5* plus in-to-out. I finally got frustrated enough that I packed it up for the night. I wish there were a way to calibrate it........ Anyway. I’m going to move it back to the front room tomorrow and see what happens.
