  And another thing, my putter meter is soo fast. I have played on a friends computer (she is tour pro though) and her starterputter is about half speed of mine. Is it hers or mine which is wrong? Because hers is way more slow than my Ping Rapture driver and is so much easier to ding than mine. I constantly miss the putter-ding with LOTS and not just right beside it.

  What is your friends name?  

  If it 555c who is on your friends list and is a tour pro, it's because you are not using the same balls.   555c  is using Callaways and you are still using starter balls, big difference.

  Cheers,

  sweetie..I'm confused.

  you mention in your first post about different types of clubs.  then you don't want people talking about equipment.

  then you mention "YOUR FRIENDS COMPUTER", then you say it's the same computer.

  ...the more clear your message, the better the help will be.

   I have to just put it SLIGHTLY less than max because if I hit it with (155/165=0.94) 94% power it will go way shorter than expected.

  Is this how it should be or is it just me? 

  The clubs are not linear. Just because you swing 90% doesn't mean you get 90% of the distance. Yeah, I know, you'll probably think that's stupid but that's the way it is. Try using the movement of the club in the down swing for a reference. The club "steps" down and you can figure out what each "step" is for each club. You can also do this for your putter. It's laid out in the Putting Tips and is very effective.
