I had a round with 26 putts for 18 holes. I have watch the pros with only 23 putts for 18 holes. What is your lowest amount of putts for 18 holes and what did you shoot?

24 is my best. And of course, i also shot my best ever score that day -2 69. Most of my 1 putts that day were par saves. That round could have easily been a 74 or 75.

I've had a few low 9s, but can't recall an overall low 18.

Low 9 on a 9 hole course: 9 (35 - zero greens in regulation and 9 up and downs - in ~1995) Low 9 on an 18 hole course following a disastrous front side: 10 including a 3-putt (37 - after > 20 putts on the front nine, including a 4-putt for a 41).

24 is my best (13 and 11). Can't remember exactly what I shot but it was probably mid-high 70s. I do remember a lot of up and downs that day.

Not my lowest, but in 2001 I birdied 6 strait holes playing in a Pro- Member at Urbana CC in Ohio. PB Dye was in my group. Ended up with 28 putts and shot 68 with an ob double. What was cool is that PB said "my father and I expect you to be a great putter of the ball" and that day I drained two over 30+footers...it also helped that I chipped in once and had a couple tap ins...

My lowest was 22 and my score was 83. I only hit a couple of greens and maybe 4 fairways IIRC. Putting is the only thing I do consistently well. Last season I averaged 27 for 18 holes but rarely scored below 85. I haven't started tracking my putting stats yet this year. I did play 36 holes Tuesday with no 3 putts so I should be in good shape still. I'm driving the ball very well and my short game is looking pretty good but I'm having to put way too much pressure on it because my approaches really suck. As good as I putt, if I could hit more greens I could get in the high 70s easy. That's what I'm working on the hardest right now. I hit my irons solid but have a lot of trouble with accuracy, mostly alignment. I also struggle with course management (poor club selection,etc.). Anyway, my putter has saved my bacon more times than I care to remember. Maybe this year I can get the rest of my game together and get that handicap down in the single digits. One can always hope!

Don't know for 18, but I had 13 for 9 once at a tough course and was pretty happy.

Naturally nothing else was working that day so I still shot 42. But that was about 3 years ago and I was happy nonetheless. It feels better to have a good day on the greens than anywhere else I think. Because a good putter stroke ends with the sound of the ball dropping in the cup.

I had a round with a 70+ year old man last week, and I would bet he only took 20-22 putts for the round. He couldn't hit the ball over 150 yards, but he was so accurate when pitching into the greens, I don't think he was ever further than 12ft away from the cup. He shot 6 over par for the round. Absolutely the craziest round of golf I've seen, but I learned a few things from him.

I've had 21 putts twice in my life (69, -3 and 72, par). I only hit 5 GIRs in both rounds.

25 putts, probably shot in the low nineties (threw all my cards out from last year as I am in the middle of moving). If I could get the ball off the tee I could play a decent round, putting is definitely my strong point, if I have more than 30 putts it has been a bad day of golf more than likely.

      Where Is Your Next Golf Trip Going to Be?

      By TN94z ·

      In August, I am playing the World Am in Myrtle Beach. I do not know which courses yet, but should be a blast. Aside from that, those are the only golf trip plans, unless I play while on vacation in Destin in June.

      Gained a Lot of Club Speed in a Couple of Days With the Same Effort. Try This Out!

      By p1n9183 ·

      Even on a perfect center hit I was receiving at most 1.48 smash factor. 10 days ago on the warming up for a round my Driver made a weird sound, I checked the bottom and it was cracked. Don't know for how long it was cracked but at least this time the crack was easy visible. Maybe it was already cracked before but with a more subtle crack?.. don't know. I'm waiting for TaylorMade to approve the warranty and send me a new head. I was using the Stealth Plus, I will take the opportunity and upgrade it to the Qi10 LS paying the difference.  On Sunday with my old Titleist 915 and softer balls I was reaching 1.5, even 1.51 on center hits. Test didn't went well. Only gained 2..3 miles, not worth pursuing. Figured out that with a ball and with a target, my path was way to in to out with this new idea, so in order to move the club in the correct path I needed to slow down to redirect the club on the downswing or aim more to the right, close the face a play a big hook.. not possible. I already play a big draw with Driver, more curvature is unplayable. Yesterday at home, with no ball messed around with a more neutral path, even swinging a little out to in. It felt a lot more in sync with the body. With a big in to out path it feels like my hands are working right, away from the body, when the body is working to rotate to the left. With the path to the left is was easier to apply force thru the hitting zone.  As always tested 10 swings with my current swing (A), and 10 with this little out to in path(B).  The difference was huge, like 12 miles faster with swing (B). I knew something wasn't right. The fact was that the PRGR was aligned more in line with the (B) path so it of course was giving higher speeds. I proceeded to align it with the (A) path and tested again 5 more swings each. Again (B) was faster but only by 5 miles. (Made a tiny experiment moving the PRGR to a more extreme in to out path and the swings register 25/30% slower for both swings, so it wasn't reading properly at that angle) Finally I moved the PRGR in the middle of both paths, and this time (B) won by 9 miles. Off course, this was without a ball and a target so.. I will be hitting the range tomorrow to see the real difference.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By klineka ·

      At Bent Tree, right? I'm surprised the greens were that slow. I played right around the corner at Northstar and their greens were normal speed. Slightly soft/receptive but not overly so and not slow or shaggy by any means.
