Putting From Off Green?

Markball · 21-02-2008, 02:25 PM

I am a newbie to the game and this forum, so sorry if this has already been answered...

Is there a way to putt when you are off the green? For example, many times I am about 1 yard away from the green, and would like to putt instead of chip. But when I change clubs, it only allows me to use the PW, SW, or LW.

Thanks.

Depends on how far you are from the pin I think. Try pressing the 1 button and this will let you know if you can use the putter as an option. I appreciate it is normally a safer option, as I find the short chips very difficult to judge. Good luck!

Yes you can keep pressing 1 to see if it allows you to putt
