Re: `Ding` % as part of your stats

  For all of us, slightly Obsessive Compulsive Golfers, it would be great idea, to see how accurate you are being with your clubs.  It would also help to understand how well you play with a club, of a certain meter speed.  

  A strange but simple idea I thought I would post.  If this appeals to anyone else, you know what to do.

  Sorry, no.  I very rarely try for the 'ding' as it seems to me the shot is effected more by what some call, "VEM", or was it REM...no...that's when yer sleepin'...anyway. No, I 'push/pull' into wind/break.  Hit the ding and it seems to go left/right of 'aimer' a little/lot.  If I intentionally push/pull it will always push/pull.

  Does this help/hinder ?

  I'm a miss-ding putter, so my stats would be hella skewed.

  It can't be too strange, believe me , it has been mentioned and requested a great many times in the past. It's value is unknown,as Mike Stroke mentioned, many of us are off-ding style putters. Also, most skilled players will off-ding in wind and a great deal in heavy wind conditions. It would be nice to be able to gather such info by turning an on/off switch to check a specific time frame of ding hits attempted on purpose sans the putting.

  They can't even fix the current glitches and people ask for the most absurd stuff to be added.

  If someone is that ADD they should just keep a spreadsheet and record that info themselves because you know they already are and are just waiting for some minor reporting error to jump all over Customer Service about a discrepancy.

  I do on occasion draw and fade, so perhaps it would not be worth the effort.  Perhaps only applicable for putting and the sweet spot.  Wasn`t expecting so many comments but thank you for contributing.
