What kills me right now are shots inside of 50 yards.
I usually hit about half of the greens, but I'm still shooting right at 80-82, mainly because I can't get up and down from anywhere, and my lag and short putting is absolutely atrocious.
Last week I shot a couple of 81s with 40 ****ing putts both times.
What do you all do on slow, chewed up greens?

Not a whole lot you can do. Hit a bit firmer and take some break out.(Already mentioned I see). Most crews are doing all they can do just to keep them alive, playability a distant second.
