Thanks for bumping this...I haven't played in about a month and my putting is starting to stink. Need to drag the ole basket out and go to town for a couple rounds.

It really seems like a solid practice game. I am AW-ful at undirected practice - I just can't keep myself out there doing stuff unless there is some point to it. With this, I give myself a little time to warm up, then play, and all of a sudden I've been practicing for 20-30 minutes 
I haven't played this game yet. I've heard about it but just now was the first time I read about it and the directions. I'm interested to know how I'd score, so I may have to give it a shot sometime although I don't have a basket.
So do you guys use 10 putters? A combination of 10 discs (putters/mids)? Or just the 2 or 3 putters you have and then collect them and rethrow?

Since you are supposed to move off your spot for each putt, I just use one - my main putter - to keep me honest.

Seems like it'd take a long time to play the game with only one disc.
I play with 5, but I step back away from the mark between putts. I do mark all the distances beforehand rather than pacing them off, just so I know I'm accurate on them.

Today was the first time I've heard of this game too. I know my putting sucks, but after the first round of 2, Oh boy do I need some work!!
91 on my first try. 146 on the second try.
I know I'll be playing this atleast once a day from now on and I'm sure my putting will improve.

By the way...
I used a string with knots at the measured marks. All you do is grab the string walk aroung the pin and you're all set no need to measure again.

I use string with orange electric tape marking the distance. I even made a device to hold the string on the bottom of my instep target. It rolls up nice and I can take it off if I want to.
I was planning on doing this once I get my pin. My buddy has an extra skillshot he is going to sell me for cheap if I want it. I was thinking a small rope or thick string. I figured it would be easier than stepping it off, though I do like knowing my steps so I can get an idea of how far I just putted while I'm on the course.
I have a small coil of rope that I do something similar with. I have it marked with knots every 5' out to 50', then every 25' after that out to the end of the rope (250'). It's nice to have a quick way to measure out putts and approaches, and it slides right in the bag with my MachLite.

I started playing this about 4 months ago.
WOW. What a difference
My other putting drill is to stand about 15' from the basket and throw as fast as I can into the basket. Of all things, it has helped my form and arm strength...and I'm lights-out from 15' in. Got the drill from D. Feldberg off of the DVD he did with the champ.

I've only done pp360 a couple of times so far, so it hasn't markedly improved my putting ability yet, but it HAS markedly improved my confidence, which has improved my putting results. The simple fact of KNOWING that you almost always bag 10/10 from 10' and 15' gives you a lot more confidence throwing those putts on the course. It's amazing how many more of these putts I hit absolutely center chains now, just knowing I can reliably do it.
Also, on the longer distances, knowing that you can get 3-5/10 and that you'll usually have a 10-15 footer left after that encourages a lot more runs, too.

What the heck is this all about? Perfect Putt 360? What, is this supposed to have you puttin' like KC in no time flat? Is it a game you actually play with other DG'ers? I am confused.... Fill me in.

Yeah what the heck.
thank you thats exactly what i was looking for
it just helps you practice your putting from different sides of the basket and more importantly length.
