    Anyone have any tips for hole # 2 on wgt best of putting shots?

    No matter what I try I can't even get a putt to within 10 yards of the hole as the slope on the tournament green just seems to keep carrying it away. I'm sure people will say different but I'm finding it hard to believe that this putt is makeable.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    My notes say "use pitch grid to aim!"

    Left 10 means 10 of the pitch squares (or 3 past the marker if you line up the right edge with the hole). Hope this is comprehensible.

    Apologies but that doesn't seem to be the same hole. The one I've got as #2 is from the Olympic club I think, and has a pretty severe slope from left to right.

    Cracking putt in the replay though!

    Thanks for the advice mate. Tried your line but I just can't keep it close. The ball just keeps rolling away down the slope, seemingly regardless of where I aim or pace used.

    I've gone past quite close once or twice but I'm guessing that unless it goes in then theres no way of getting a decent score.

    take your wedge...aim towards the left fringe and hit a 50 yard shot.....(give or take just a little depending on green speed). rarely ever am outside of 7 feet at worst. With that ball, it should work fine. Remember...hit it to 50 yards....it works...try on a practice or CCTH.

    I got lucky after about 6-8 tries.

    Thanks for the replay but that's hole #1 on the best of putting shots course I've got.

    I've heard a few people say about using a wedge. Is it not possible with a putter?

    Have you ever made the shot?
