I stopped trying to hit the ding lol. Just before or after depending on the wind I try to do as you are.
The only time I try to hit the ding is when there is a straight putt and that can be hard to do
Agree 100% when it comes to my game also.
I really think I have to upgrade my Nike putter ( maybe spend a fortune on a Spider ) as lately a higher than normal percentage of my straight putts miss due to the "miss ding factor". Just a fraction either side and no hope of going in unless I smash it. LOL.
