    DodgyPutter:

    srflan:
    I was a -2 on St. Andrews had a 7 foot putt it went 100 yards

    As others have suggested you were on the fringe where the automatic putter setting is 300ft (100 yards).

    Don't think its possible to have a 7 ft putt from fringe at St Andrews(maybe nowhere!) as none of the pin locations are cut so close to the edge.

    True, probably fairly hard to find a spot where you can putt 300ft from too although St A's is best for that.

    I just didn't think it could be completely made up.  Last st A's round I see is the 15th a 38 on the F9.  He was -2 so on at least the 3rd and probably at least the 4th.   Still assuming it's true and grasping at straws: Is there a shot from the fringe with the shorter pin at the 5th that you would maybe want to hit as a 7ft putt, taking downhill into account?  Maybe even the other pin.  I've not played there for well over 7 seconds so I can't remember.

    That green probably is 100yds from front to back.
