I had 2 in my last round on thick and grainy poa annua greens.  Both were from over 30 ft.  One was uphill and against the grain.  I thought I hit it hard enough to get there but came up 10 ft short.  I was first to putt so didn't get a read on the grain.  The other was a left to right breaker and I didn't realize the grain was also running that way.  Ended up about 10 ft below the hole.

0... ZERO!  Picked up a new putter yesterday.  Early morning round, today, with no chance to try the putter on grass.  Had a 15 footer on #1 for my first putt.  No idea how the putter would work.  Rol

Both.  Lag closer, and make more shorter ones, but lagging closer might be more important.  3-putts from 30 feet should be reasonably rare, from 20 feet should be really rare.  If you're trying to hit

Three; struggled today putting. I missed several putts right and several short. I gotta get out and practice putting a little more.

2 x 3-putts today, the first one started with a long lag putt that missed badly. The second one was a heart-stopping gimme length putt that I inexplicably pushed left of the cup. I really needed that par too; I did not play well today.

Played in a slow drizzle yesterday.   I had 3 x 3 putts.   Some of the greens were wet, others were still dry.  I still need to work on speed

Last round of the year (oct 26) likely.  High winds and super cold.  I had three 3-putts.  would have been more, but I also sank a ton of 6-8 footers that I'd normally miss.  Really a mix of super good and super bad putts on really tricky greens in really uncomfortable weather.   the constant was my approaches and lags were horrible throughout the round

fun stuff

Only one yesterday, but it was a 4-putt. Wait: does that still count as a 3-putt? :whistle:

The pin was on one side of a high ridge, on the slope itself and there was no way to stop the ball before the hole, even starting from a dead stop at the top of the ridge (I tried afterwards, just to see), and in fact the ball was gathering enough speed to end up a good 25-30ft away from the hole, in a long curve.  Of course my ball landed on the green on the other side of the ridge, so it was mission near impossible to get down in two. I misjudged the steepness and curve on the comeback putt so I was still 4 feet below the hole after 2 putts, and grazed the hole with a tad too much speed on the third putt, leading to a 4-putt. Who the hell 4-putts? Apparently I do... :pound:

ETA: I still ended up with 32 putts for the round on tough greens, so not too bad...

I had a 4-putt yesterday.  I had about a 50 foot downhill putt, sent it about 12 feet past the hole, sent the second putt about 4 feet past the hole, and missed the next one, too.

2 today - so frustrating. My lags sucked on a few holes. I was able to convert a couple, but missed 2 of them.

I've really been working on developing a routine and that was certainly helpful on a couple of those.

None today...but two my last time out. Currently averaging around 2 per round. 

I feel like I am too.  I would love to get rid of them. It's almost always a pace/speed issue with me

Yeah for sure speed is everything on avoiding three putts. Well that and hitting it closer to the hole to begin with on our approaches lol.

4 - I hate putting. Slick greens today at new course. Struggled with pace. Too much downhill, not enough uphill.

ZERO! Finally!

Shot a 77 today - much better than the 98 last week where I had 7 three-putts. Greens today were running closer to a 9.5 today (rather than 12 like last week at Birdwood - UVA course) so that helps my lagging woes
