    Bohemian1:

    About 6 weeks ago a new *glitch* developed in my game. For no apparent reason no matter how hard i tried i was not allowed to hit the white lone*ding* on my first putt unless my set up was bad and i was missing the putt. I thought to myself, here we go

     

    (There are major Maxthon issues recently that need to be addressed, so I am assuming that you have tracked those down.  As your level increases, your ability to play the game decreases.  So for example, a club that was hitting properly in Tour Pro level becomes more erratic in Master level.  It becomes more important to have the correct clubs in your bag for your specific level, and others have discussed which clubs and ball are the correct ones to be successful. I looked at your putter and ball combination, and it seems to be sufficient.  So your ability to hit DING should not be affected.)

    Sometimes a glitch like this can be solved by loading the regular starter putter and ball back in your equipment, play a few holes, then load the good putter and ball back into equipment, then the glitch goes away for some reason.  I specifically have my current putter in the bag because it has high levels on Precision AND Forgiveness AND Balance, so if I miss ding it doesn't affect my scores as much.

    Tried it and with no success. Also tried hiring other putter's, no success. This is a game issue, nothing will convince me otherwise because as  i have maintained all along, it is only affecting 1 shot*every first putt on every hole*. If you really are looking to *encourage* me to spend on other equipment WGT i suggest another route as this is not gonna work, meantime i will just put up with it and keep relying on my lucky guesses as to how lack of ding is gonna affect my first putt, i am actually getting pretty good at it.
