Spotted this term earlier today in a couple of threads and had never heard of it before...so thanks to my good friend Mr Google...I can't wait to mess around with this for a bit some evening.

Anyone here use it?

I suppose with your course next to the water you need to know about tides:D

I've got a rule of 12 too. When I get to 12 shots on one hole walk into the clubhouse and have 12 in there. It doesn't seem to bother me anymore after that.

As for your rule of 12 I have no idea what your on about and can't be bothered googling it.
 
Good idea in principle, but I have problems with it.

Not everybody's greens are the same speed.
Not everybody gets the same trajectory with the same club.
Not everybody plays balls that spin the same amount.
Very few chip shots are flat all the way to the hole.
Until I see it with my own eyes, I don't believe that a chip with a 9 iron will roll 50% more than the same shot with a PW.

Like I said, good idea, but don't use it on the first green in a medal and expect to chip it stone dead.
You need to play the shots with your swing and your​ clubs on your greens and take note of the results before you put it into practice.
