| Generally, I take 2 putts, but really, it depends on how I'm hitting it onto the green on that day, if I'm hitting the ball well, I'm a lot more confident on the green, if not, then yeah, it can take 3. |

| Considering how I've been missing a lot of greens lately, but that my chipping is pretty good, I've been one putting a lot of greens. That's not to say my scores are any better.

| I've been putting well lately. Quote: |
I can go from 37 to 31 putts in two rounds on the same course.
| That's not always a putting problem. You could be chipping poorly, and leaving yourself long putts. You could be spraying your drives and setting up tough approach shots, etc.

| There is a few newbies on the site now so I thought I'd bring this one back to life to see how they go.

Surtee revived a topic of interest. I've been having trouble getting the line on the hole I'm either left or right. I tried switching to left handed putting, which I am a lefty, but it just wasn't working now I'm closing the left eye and I'm on line but short. this indicates that I have an eye dominance issue, glasses, a lousey putter  or simply; I better get my eyes checked again  anything else I should try as I wait to see the doctor

Mine is normally 2 or 3 | If I could have voted 2.5 I would have, so I voted 3!
Half the 3 putts are due to a poor position on the green and a 30' first putt.
The other half of the three putts, I just miss the second putt that I should make.
I do three putt a lot, but I don't think it's more than half the time.
