I mean I use gamegolf but I just don’t really put a lot of worth in the putting stat as I don’t move the position of the pin and the exact position the ball on the green. I do change the on green/off green info when I remember

Why not?

Why I don’t put a lot of worth in the putting stat or why I don’t move the pins and putts positions?

The answer to the first part is because I don’t do the second part 😁 the second part is - because I’m still too bad a golfer to keep up with that as well, taking out my phone, moving the putts and pin locations after every hole while pushing a cart... don’t know takes too much time, don’t want to slow everybody down.

It's pretty easy to do on the computer.

If you don't edit your putts and pin locations you're going to mess up your short game stats, too.

Use the computer and just record the distance of your first putt.   I just step off the yardage and move the pin location on the computer.   It's very easy.

You remember all of your putts and lengths after your round?

I write down the length of my first putt on my scorecard, but generally, yes, I do. Simply editing on the computer will jog my memory of the entire round.

Right, you're messing up a bunch of your stats. You may as well, honestly, start a new account and do things properly. Or delete your old rounds, or something.

    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
    • Day 296: did a stack session. 
    • Day 126: 5/1/24 Putting and chipping practice. Slow motion swings with 8-iron.
    • #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.
    • Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.
