I know this is a Rugby Union thread..... but for anyone of a rugby league persuasion who watched the Saints Wigan game today... wasn't that fantastic...😁
PGA tour stats show that from within 10' 90% of missed putts go past the hole. By the time you get to 20' its 50/50. Over 30' its about 60/40 finishing short. That makes sense.
You also need to be aware of the 'donut' too. The circle around the hole where people stand when picking the ball up. The ball will break inconsistently as it passes through..
If I recall correctly, on GMB Kate Garraway said something along the lines of "I didn't know Alan was traitor whilst I was in there". Unless this slip was misdirection, then she must go pretty soon.
I'd say it helps if your new to the game and learning or undergoing rapid improvement.
If your skill level has plateaued, your more likely to be helped by playing with golfers with a similar golfing personality.
