Another 80 this morning.....I blow.....36 putts...didn't hit it solid....yuk.....missed 4 birdie putts and 2 par putts inside 6 feet. Hit it great on the range before and after the round though. Made everything after the round on the putting green. Oh well, my lowball team won 9 skins. The only good thing was today I made some money.
And that you got to play golf. We got 6 more inches of snow yesterday, happy Spring!

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)

How close are you chipping/pitching it when you miss the green?
Whatever folks think of Pelz from a technique standpoint, the stats are worth paying attention to. Simply put, if you want to score, chipping better is the fastest way to do it - get inside that 3-6 foot circle with your chips.

I hit 10 greens and every chip I had on missed greens was within 5 feet but 1. I really felt good with the wedges and chipped it close all day. The funny thing is, the putter wasn't that bad, I burned a lot of edges and lipped out a bunch....as stated earlier in this thread......"I rolled it well, I just didn't make as many as I wanted". It was really a weird day. I did a good job course management wise.
Funny thing is...I have a lot of these types of days. Tommorrow I may hit 3 greens, have 24 putts and still shoot 80. It's day to day, but what isn't...right?

Sounds like your speed on the short putts and/or line is very aggressive?
Next round you play, take the highest line you see, and double it, even on the short putts. Let me know how it goes, I'm guessing your speed may smooth out a bit.
Miss em on the high side and 'in the leather'
