  You know maybe the Ghost  level 92 isn't for everyone. It's one of the pro shops best putters but it just is not working for me anymore.

  Ding the shot distance is great but no matter what I do I miss by 1/2 the diameter of the cup. Just can't figure it out . I mean we are talking putts that are from 8' to 12'

  I had one today 8' from the cup no dots at all ding the shot missed by 1/2 the diameter . Did I mention there was no dots moving at all

  I'm not sure how long you've used it but I'm having great success with my L92 Ghost. The thing is, we're still on our Honeymoon. Right now it feels like I can make anything but we haven't had a very long relationship yet. Her mother hasn't stuck her nose into our relationship yet and her father doesn't know what a bumb I really am. ;-)

  I've had it for a year or more, I wish I would have kept the replay of the one this morn, but I just said  " heck with it  "

  I'm not sure it is the Ghost, rather all putters.  I can get that from both the Ghost and the Versa.  I had a friend doing the same thing the other day with the Nike 77.  Straight ones that weren't straight, or breaking putts that went straight.

  I don't know about you and your friends, but this happens to me at least 2-3 time every game. I don't know what is going on , but it sure is strange. The 92 was the best putter , as long as you dinged it. Now it has gone all to hell for some reason

  Yup, must pay attention. The balls are jumping off the putter face in not the direction you aimed. This has been happening for a little while now. Now WGT is messing with your putts, lol.

  Many top players are complaining about this. It sucks, but what going to do? Smack and hope. That is the play now. :-)

  I've noticed this, too.  Looks to me like they've messed a bit with precision parameters.  I'm having a little more success using the miss-the-ding method with the L92 Ghost, a putter which formerly was more ding-dependent.

  I have the Odyssey Versa and I am off Legend tourney greens.  Any way the weekly St. G (windy one) penultimate hole I ended up 12 feet right of the pin. I studied that putt for some while, every view and it was pancake flat. I gave it 10 foot power which should have been plenty for that flat to ram it in and it missed right side (as avatar looks) by a almost a cup.  I should have saved the replay but was so miffed I just moved on.  All that said I have had that putt (more or less before) and it is just the way that putt behaves I think................Maybe when I can be bothered to look at that hole again I will go in practise mode and see if I can replicate(:

  Jim, lil tip. When the putt is messed with the only view will be the helicopter view. That is how you know you have just been .............., lol.
