  I think i am playing legend in alt like 6 month. Never had problem. Then i played stroke play last 2 week first time ever. First week everything was easy. EVen i shoot -7 in famous holes. Suddenly last 6 days ...green speed doubled up speed even with legends only game. Kinda weird.

  Speeds change about in a weekly rhythm, alas not doubling. It's more like a few %, making a wee adaption necessary to reach the cups or to avoid overshooting.

  In tournaments, though, the speeds vary more than that, over the limits of speed nominations.

  The issue for me it was changed only last few days. before that it was easy. I think they wanted to create separation between legend and TL. Slow down speed of TL and speed up legend greens. My problem with green is if aim high of break it go straight ..if i hit exact..it go below hole. Almost seems like wgt messing up with my putter balance. I even tried with nike ball. All problems happen with above 5 feet putts. I can't handle green speed , meter speed. What i handle is erratic behaviour.

  I went back to starter ball (rock) , my putting improved. So basically they are messing with ball? i used srixon , callaway and nike. Or they just messing with my profile? Not sure. Why i can putt well with rock not with srixon or callway. Weird.

  All balls act the same on the greens. You've been told this lots of times.
