Putting. The bane of so many player's game.
Lately I've been extatic about my putts in the 25-35 foot range. It feels like I sink about 60% of them, and the ones I miss are usually just low and hit the basket. Zoom in to the 10-15 feet and 90% of my putts seem to go wide right of the basket. It's frustrating that I get more birdies from great putts over 30 feet than I do from great drives that land 15 feet from the pin. In fact, the later turn into bogies more frequently than not.
I know that most of this is my mental game, thinking "I just sunk that awesome putt so this one is no problem!" I guess I'm wondering, how many other folks seem to run into this problem?
