What's bad is it's a fricking par 3 hole! Calc pulled the shite out of it to hit the guy. In some spots they put the ropes too close to the action.

Beard, BP, or others who know things.

I've got to improve my putting. Simple practice does not help. Looking for a training tool. Any recs or ideas?

I use a normal style hand grip, 33" putter, Cameron Newport 2, fat lightweight grip.

add length to the putter and switch to left hand low. I was by far the worst putter of anyone I know and felt like I just could never make the switch to left hand low because it didn't feel right.

A few months ago I decided that left hand low was worth a try since I was running out of ideas. Best decision I've ever made! It does feel weird at first and you would think that getting the speed right on long putts would be more of a challenge than it turns out to be. 2 rounds after I switched it officially felt strange to hold the putter any other way than left hand low. I consider my putting to be a strong point of my game now instead of the absolute weakest

I noticed a lot of the pros going LHL this weekend. I played around with that and noticed it creates a straighter back swing. Forward press does same thing.

I would practice nothing going by putts from 6 feet and in until you can make them with eyes closed.

I played shite golf this weekend. Saturday the hangover shakes caused me to drop a 45 on the front nine. The back was better, but missed almost all approaches wide right, posted a 39 for a lackluster 84. A 70 year old man beat me by 12 strokes. Yesterday was just plain awful. I shot a 90 fricking 1 and got beat down by several geriatrics. Oh well.
