    All nice calculations. But that is not all. Because you need different power, if you are on the Ocean Course or on to the Bethpage, for example.

     

    Can't speak for that comparison , but between ST A's and Kiawah I've noticed no difference. The formula I use for very fast greens is, distance to hole plus or minus elevation  plus 1.5 ft. ( proper carry distance past the hole) x .8. On really long putts of  60' or more I add about .5% for friction ( and say a couple hail Marys') which usually gets me within tap in range.  Gl & hit 'em true.
