    That is interesting. I'd like to see how they conducted the test.

    I’ll bet it can be found on pga tour website. That Brandel Chamblee character cited it on one of the coverage portions for Sony Open in Hawaii.

    Good post. I agree. Also, I think the straighter the putt, the better odds with the stick in.

    That’s the study I found. Not sure if it’s the same one that BC was referring to. You’ll know by the end of the year as statistics increase at the pro level.

    It will be interesting for sure. I just can't get past the human factor here. If humans could putt with the same consistency as a machine I'd give the study a lot more relevance. There are just too many variables involved and if just one of them is off...

    Anyone watching the Seniors tourney in Hawaii? DT has a 3 shot lead. The scenery is spectacular to boot.
