puttting strength

  I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem.  I have a 45 foot uphill putt, with super fast break left to right, and lots of it.  I pull the meter back to what I think is enough speed, say full 60 feet on 60 foot meter, and hit the ball with enough break that I think will work, the ball goes maybe two feet???????, anyone have any idea what the hell happens with that.  It has happened several time to me.  Thanks for any response.

  No matter how much you aim for break, you still must ding in order to get true distance. If you hit very late or early on purpose, your ball will go far less.

  Sounds like you hit 1/2 down the meter and whiffed.
