meunier33 In addition to the society many of us have recommended that you set up with conditions that will obey for you, I highly recommend you setting up a practice society with conditions that obey for you as well. Just trying to be a helpful neighbor. Be blessed. moneyman273 Just trying to be a helpful neighbor. Be blessed. Wow, what a nice guy. That's what we say in the South Todd.

Do you guys think this is as simple as that I don't pay attention to keeping the blue line straight when I putt and I don't watch how I spin the ball when I putt either? I've always thought of the putting swing as something kind of automatic that no one really needs to pay much attention to. I don't know how to putt while taking a forward swing instead of flicking the putter forward.PULL BACK - PUSH FORWARD forget that flick thing - that hasn't worked for like 4 years now (2 game cycles)- AND was primarily the PS people doing it. You're #TeamXBOX - don't do PS stuff.. LOL

moneyman273, I am playing the practice society now. I'm dealing with a medical condition and hitting some bad shots trying to figure out how to change up my game to improve it. In the Dominican Republic I'd say "sueltame en banda".

Yeah man. If you’re flicking it up and it goes left or right you’re going to miss a TON of putts. I know for a while everybody was convinced putt weight was the attribute to go for. But I trust my timing the vibration far more than I trust my thumb line. You might want to play around with your fittings on the putter to see what works best for you. Keep in mind putt path will help the ball not go as far offline with a poor plane, while putt weight will be more forgiving on the vibration and how far you actually hit the ball.

Week 4 completed..... Congrats to this winners this week:Alpha - DoubtfulObelisk -30 Bravo - xcltaff1980 -23 Charlie - OldManGaming606 -14 Delta - paulm912 -2 BAND OF BROTHERS DIVISION TABLE
Two weeks in a row where half my game was good enough to win the division while the other half was bad enough for mounting any momentum. Felt really rusty this week judging cross winds, fast tempo off and on, and some woeful putting in some spots. Loved the course tough. Flinders Bluff (Major) by Heisenberg is next on the schedule. Had this in the Ryder Cup discussion but I was going for more of a US Open type vibe with the design theme. Fantastic course as usual from the designer. Going with the shorter tees both rounds and lighter winds since the rest of the course is pretty tough on its own merit. I will be out of town from the 8th-17th so I will hand over the keys to Paul to collect scores while I am away. Hopefully my shoulder heals up to play some real golf next week as I am looking forward to some rest and relaxation. Good luck this week..... BTW....anyone have an interest to do another Ryder Cup like tournament this later this fall, like the Presidents Cup? I really do not want to run it persay but we have enough interested folks out there (100% committed) and two folks wanting to captain I would be all for it. It doesn't really need to be to USA v everyone else either. I know we did something like this back in the CUCC days. Just a thought.

I also have a problem with touch speed. I can switch between aim and shot sticks so fast that the aim stick is still moving when I am swinging the shot stick, which ruins all shots. This happened this morning also. Then there is the related issue of the tiny putt swing. I can full swing the putter so fast in such a tiny space that a full swing is taken and the ball is never moved.

Another BoB week another Even. I missed many short putts again. Has most of the allowance for off line putts been removed so the game is more like real life? You can't get putts to go into the hole buy hitting the edge of the hole anymore.
Ninja edit, after the round I finally looked at my putter fittings. They were way out of balance but backwards from the way I thought:

Hi all. Charity yearly stream is up.
12th June I'll be trying to raise money for MND (motor neurone disease). Most of the uk based guy know Rob Burrow a famous rugby league legend past away yesterday of this disease at the age of 41. 4 and half yrs he had it at he rapidly went. This man is from my home town of pontefract and had many chats with him through my work and his family... and also when he couldn't talk too through this illness. If anyone wants to watch that evening it will be from 9.30pm that Wednesday. Vod will be up too after to ones who miss it.. and a link in here and other discords people maybe in if anyone cant do either. Hope many can support.
This is a new disease I've only come across because of him and I dont know if this is recognisable in America either with other sports people or people you know.
Hope you can help and hopefully see some of you next week 🙏👍💪

Ok so the weirdest thing just happened. Yesterday the game was working fine, now today it's not. I'll explain... So everyone is familiar with the normal backswing animation. Well tonight I get on and it is 2x the speed in the backswing as normal. I've never seen this before. Is it happening to anyone else? Please let me know.
