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.

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

    • Wordle 1,013 3/6* ⬛🟨⬛🟨🟨 🟩⬛🟩🟩⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
    • Meanwhile, another old Tour Edge guy switches to Callaway for this season. I have a different problem, course dependent set-ups. What I’m wondering is if @dragonsmhas the 8 iron set 5-PW, AW, GW or just 5-PW, GW. Because the PW is 42°, AW 47°, and GW 52°. Because that could potentially be a gap there. The 5-iron to 6-iron length jump is 5/8” instead of 1/2” so you should be careful of that.    @WUTiger the problem most people have with 3-woods is they don’t play them far enough back into their stance. And they usually don’t have enough loft and the shaft is too long. So 3HL, 4 or 5-wood is probably better for most golfers. I do the “Frankenwood” approach. I have both the 3+ and 5 woods. I typically will either add two degrees to the 3+ on 6600 yards or longer courses, or take a degree off the 5-wood on shorter courses than 6300 or so, and use the 5-wood shaft for both. I don’t usually find a situation where I need both the 3 and 5 wood on a course. I don’t play from 7000 yards it’s no fun. Edit: I mostly agree with @WUTiger on the gapping, although a lot of the newer even fixed hosel fairway woods are made better than what we had when we were playing the old Exotics XRails.

    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
