Putting

[louise_a]

Today I was judging mid to shortish putts very well, getting the pace just right, except for when I had putts to win the hole. Twice I had putts that were gettable 10-15ft and both times I charged the ball past the hole and missed the returns so lost holes i coud have won and certainly should have halved.
Was it Adrenalin, or has anyone any other ideas as to wy I did it.

Sounds like you were overly aggressive with the first putts. Yes they're holeable but, at that length, you can't ignore the need to get down in two..... as you saw!

pros dont hole 15footers all the time! is there not some crazy stat like they only hole 60% of 6footers or did i just make that up?
