  That's hilarious - you bag must be heavy from all those yard sticks! lol.

  Maybe a 100ft Stanley power lock instead.

  Happy New Year double!

  Agreed, RLP... I only use the flop or the full spin 64 degree wedge when I'm off the greens (unless I'm within a foot or two of the green).    Haven't had the patience to fool around with guessing the distances on the longer chip shots, and I never use the pitch.  It works pretty well for me, though.

  Good tips, BUT, why is putter off-center from putting line? NO ONE lines up their putt from an angle! It should be a 180 degree straight line from my eye, to the putter, to the hole when setting up.

  Also, why am I not able to lower the camera angle when putting so I can see my line from the ground view, like real golf?

  You CAN see the line from a straight view, just reverse the camera.

  Quick question - anyone else find putts sometimes start straight at the hole even though you line them up for a right break and hit it dead on? I've had putts aimed 2-4 inches right of the hole. I hit the putt perfectly straight, but it ignores my outside the hole alignment and start straight at the hole, breaking the 2-4 inches and ending up missing. Is it me, or is the putting sometimes a little kinky?
