    To me it seems when I aim my putting line left or right of the hole, then look at it from the reverse angle my line looks closer to the hole compared to the first view. Which view do you guys count on? Id think reverse

    Trusting a putting view is right up there with

    'the cheque's in the post'

    'no, your ass doesn't look big in that' 

    and that old favourite,

    'no,of course I won't */%$ in your mouth'

    trust nothing, check them all and still doubt!

    Can't really trust any angle, I look from all angles although I find the forward view the best to trust ( but that's just me).

    Sometime if I am unsure I will use my chipping view just to check the flow of the green.

    Hope that helps

    Apart from Kiawah, I trust always the reverse view more than the front.

    Cue the manx minx to say my stats at putting suck, and what do I know.

    Spot on. At Kia, I find myself using a combo of the putting reverse and the pitch reverse dots. Still doesn't work great.
