When you're marking the putt, are you hitting the + button where the ball is every time you putt? I know you said you are marking the putts but I just want to make sure you're hitting the right button.

Yeah, I would hit the + then putt, then putt it in, then tap the Pin Collect?  I wonder if that could be part of the problem, using the pin collect as my hole out putt.

Every putt you take, you need to hit the + button. Hit the Pin Collect/Pick Up over the hole. Sounds like that's the issue.

No, I'm sorry.  I wanted to wait until this round to see what happened, and well, it did it again.  Said I shot in the mid 60's again.  Actually carded a 94. SS Customer Support, here I come.  Again, the only difference is me going to Manual Putting, and that is because my new Sub70 Putter has the SuperStroke grip on it and I didn't retag it. 

I'll let you know when I hear back from them. 

Just as an FYI, I glued a sensor onto my CB Super Stroke grip. So far, the sensor has stayed glued to the counterweight with no issues.

Ok, sounds like another excuse to go play more golf now!  Thanks Matt

I had used double-sided automotive emblem tape (left over from a resto-mod project) and that seemed to work well also.  I'll keep the glue option in mind.

Ok, I know it’s probably just me and my ignorance but I’m giving up on Strokes Gained when it comes to putting.  Baffles me how I can have a 30 putt day and SG is a -4.

Strokes gained takes into account how far your putts are to provide the expected number of strokes to hole out. So say every first putt is 7 feet and you are expected to make 50% of those. Each time you miss you lose 0.5 off a stroke and easy make you gain 0.5. So as an extreme example if you hit to 7 feet on 18 holes and have 30 putts, that means you had 6 one putts and 12 two putts. So you would be loosing 3 strokes putting even though you had 30 putts. 
 

This is why strokes gained was developed. Depending on how long your putts are 30 putts in a ring might be great or terrible. So make sure your putts are the right distance for that to be useful. If your first putts are marked too short that can really mess up the strokes gained. As a data person I love this tote of thing, but know it’s not for everyone.

I do try and mark my first putt while standing over it and for the most part the putts do show up correctly.  Sometimes not though.

It’s not for everyone for sure, that’s why we can let them so do the work.

I had an issue with the clock feature V3- the watch was 20 min behind even though it was fully charged. Once I sync'd it to the app, the time was updated. Not sure why it happened and support didn't answer why, they just said to sync it.

When I played on Tuesday I noticed the time was off by an hour.  Figured it had something to do with daylight savings time and didn’t worry about it.  Now that you’ve said this, I ran upstairs and checked the time on the watch.

Just like support said, sync and the time is back to normal.

Yup - I sync'd with the app after the time change. What I was concerned about was the 30 min discrepancy  on the fully charged watch. I just checked on it this morning and the same issue. Now it's about 15 min off. Going to send another email to support.

Hey all, just to let you know the team at Shot Scope follow the user group closely and it is great feedback/discussion.

I have not checked recently (since our season is over), but recall that the shots gained functionality was not available on both PC and mobile.  Are there plans to address this?

Yes we are working to add Strokes Gained to the Web Dashboard and have a new update for that prior to next season.

Gavin,

Nice to see you here. If you follow this thread from the beginning as well as the ARRCOS vs. Shotscope thread I think you'll find lots of great ideas for upcoming versions. A few recommendations/questions.

- I have 2 sets of clubs - one in Florida (with SS tags) the other in Ohio. (no tags). Since I primarily use the app, given I don't want to clutter up the screen, should I just buy a second set of tags amd set up 2 different accounts? 

- I'd like to have the ability to enlarge the labels along with the zoom feature for individual holes. 

- Is there a way to export the data to a program like excel?

Thx

Hey Tony, 

You could set up a second account with another set of tags, or presuming you are in one place for a period of time, set up your bag and then switch active bag when you move location. We are looking at how to improve this feature as we realize this is an issue for some users. 

I am not sure what you mean by labels? Labels on the shot?

There isn't mainly because we calculate on the fly all of your data, which allows us to always optimize our course mapping, so it would be extremely difficult to export. 

Best
