Ok...you have 1 min to make 50 ft worth of putts...what distance you pick?
I think I'm picking a 10 footer. As long as you spill a large bucket of balls before we start, I'll make 5 fairly easily in a minute.

The way I putted today, I couldn't have gotten off 4 putts in a minute if->
I made every one. I think the hole was smaller than the golf ball. If I didn't deliberately take every put, I'd miss every one. I watch people walk up and swipe in 3 footers before they hardly stop walking. If I do that, I'm certain to miss. The only way I can play or putt well is to slow myself down at address (putts or other shots).I tend to go too fast and not concentrate....I'd have to say 10- 5 footers if we are just rapid firing...I'd miss half of them in my haste. Days like today, I was glad to be finished. I'd had ENOUGH golf. I'm gonna lay off golf ....until tomorrow morning! ** Edited by HOKIERIT at 7/6/2026, 8:09:14 PM

50 1-footers.

I might have to go with 100 half-footers
I admittedly never played a lot of golf, and haven't played in close to 20 years now due to some issues with a disk in my neck, but I can't think of a single time I ever made a putt on a real green (i.e. not a practice green or a putt putt course) that was longer than 10 feet. Getting an accurate read on the green, getting the ball speed right, and actually hitting the ball so that it goes where I wanted it to were three things I never could get to happen at the same time.

I was going to say the same thing. Unless I go to my happy place…

You don't lock down Claire Dunphy without sinking a 1-footer.

Tend to think that'd be highly doable in a minute
