Yep, that one renders well.  Would be nice to know my SG for particular round(s) but this is fine.  Thanks.

You can get that with the old system.  (By the way, the data in the new format still doesn't match up with the data from the old format.  I've emailed them, and they're still working on it.)

Here are my "all rounds" vs a 10 handicap. Select the drop down menu to select "last round":

And now it shows my last round vs a 10 handicap.  (You can also "select individual rounds" right next to the dropdown menu.):

Thanks!  For some reason, I interpreted their warning about using 5 rounds minimum to mean something else. 

And it says I gained 0.06 strokes putting compared to a scratch.  That has to be wrong, right?  My three longest putts made were a 6', 7', and 18'.  

Here's the round if anyone wants to look: http://www.gamegolf.com/player/Shindig/round/1792953

I realize I did lose strokes in bad ways (a sand shot on #11 that ended up over the green and next to a tree, an O.B. on the par-3 15th, two tee shots on par-4s that ended behind trees I didn't escape from), but ... after accepting that putting was the worst part of my game, having a round where I putt like a scratch feels weird.  But if it's true, it's encouraging and I'd love to have a lot more rounds putting like that (I'll keep up whatever I've been doing for practice).  I know we can cram gains by putting quickly, but that's something else entirely.

Why? Making from 6' gains 0.4 strokes or so, 7' might be 0.5 or something, and 18' might be 0.9 or so. You'd have to lose 1.7 on the other holes to make that zero.

Good point.  I also two-putted from 51' (first one to 2'), which is worth something I'm sure.

I also missed a few greens to just the collar so I was hitting my putter from just off the green, which I learned last week counts as "short game" not "putting," so any bad shots in there don't "count against" that statistic.

I felt good about yesterday's round anyway but this makes me very optimistic for things going forward.  Thanks!

I haven't had that problem, but I'd just snip off the threaded end and "glue" the cap on with silicone or Gorilla glue.

This. You can leave a little of the stub.

I think @Golfingdad had a similar issue and he did something like what @Hardspoon suggested.

Yup, exact same problem and solution and it worked great.
