  Tks for the bit of info. I did not know or should say realize that the blue is uphill and red is downhill. I always just went off the marker. I will say that i have never used your method to figure out how much power i should put in a putt, I have a different method that I use and it works very well for me.

  It's insane how many different speeds you have to know when playing on Champ greens. Glad i'm not the only one that's noticed it.  I thought I was going insane.

  How do we putt with the new bar at the bottom?? My game has gone down hill fast because of the new bar!

  You might want to change your EZ Swing putter to the Starter putter to rectify that.

  That's the same with all green speeds.  The old way we had set green speeds as in fast, v/fast tourny ect   now we have fast 9 or tourny 12, 12.9 etc

  It's hard for my old brain to think there are different speeds within a range ....lol

  I just add another foot to all my putts now regardless of speed.  Unless is a huge downhiller,  then I be more careful

  I understand all the different speed green, slow, fast, very fast, tournament 11, tournament 12, championship 13, i have almost everytime the right power

  But for the break i still don't understand any method. I read all, but with my  poor  english  i don't understand all the  advice 

  I think my putting skill is worse and worse and worse and worse and worse than ever

  And i'm very frustrating

  You know, after 102 level of play i think i practice a lot

  The problem is  i read all the advice on the forum to putt better but don't understand what they said.

  I mean, not  their fault, it's mine, my english is not enough good to understand all the advice.

  My stat for  one putt in is 48%, it's not enough, i would like to have at least 70% if possible.

  When i score 26, 27 or 28 on 9 holes, it's pure luck on putt

  When i score between 29 and 31, couple of good approach and some putts in

  When i score between 32 and 34, i'm frustrating because i miss too many possible putt

  I want to progress on putt because i   would like to say my score depend on my skill on putt and not on my luck on putt, a whole difference.
