What would you do for a 100ft putt?

[discgolferjr]

for a 100+ ft putt would you use a jump putt, stretch putt or throw it up hoping it will go in.

I'd just make a smart approach that had a real high percentage of parking near the pin.

 

[discgolferjr]

I like that. inever really have tried a jump putt. I played idlewild and on hole 10 i mumbled to my self "this is going in. someone should get a video camera." It was 150+ putt and it went in. I used an aviar p & a

 

[Trashthrasher]

I'd throw it up to the pin. My confidence in 20+ foot putts isn't great, so I'd take a controlled throw & take the par.

yes.

I'm a big fan of throwing up. :\

i don't care too much for puking. I mean, you could throw up all you want but the bottom line is you still have to get the disc to the basket. I would try to make a controlled approach to just short of the basket.

from a 100ft im trying to get it to hook into the basket so if i miss it will dig in and not go to far away

In a casual round, I'd definitely go for it with a jumper. I'm confident that I can make the comeback. If in a tourney, it'd depend on how I'm doing. If it's for birdie, then I'd consider going for it. If I wanted to give it a chance but have an easy comeback, I'd do what Omega said.

Jump putt, lob or line drive will all depend on the hole.

 

[Technohic]

Jump lob putt.

For a second there, I thought I was going to have to answer "sodomize elf balls" when I Isaw the title. Like what would you do for a Klondike bar.

 

[adam423]

What do you mean by 'stretching out'?

 

[ChainMan]

If it's down hill behind the basket I back hand stall putt. If it's all flat I'll back hand annie. If it's down hill to the pin I'll jump putt. If there's a screen, hill or something behind the pin I'll back hand annie. ...I guess that's "other".

 

[astrowolf67]

I'm new enough to not know different putting styles yet. My current style, is to go direct to the basket, and, at close range, that sometimes leaves me with a longer putt than original. That being said, from 100ft, it depends on the location. If it's on a mound, or has woods/hazards directly behind it, I'd park it as close as I could for a safe par. If it's pretty clear around the basket, I go for broke.

I would try a jump put if it was a little closer, as for now, I have not reached 100 ft on a jump putt. So I guess I would throw my putter with a fan grip.

If that 100 footer wasn't for birdie you really screwed that hole up eh?

100 footer is well out of my 5% range (that's about 60 feet.) I think I've hit only 4 shots outside of 100 feet ever. It's pretty low percentage. I would say you should always lay it up in this situation. Every now and then, you'll accidentally throw a bit too hard and it'll go in, probably at about the same percentage as you could put it in TRYING to do it. So I'd say throw an approach shot aiming to hit the ground about 10 feet in front of the pin and slide it in for a drop in par.

 

[REDARMY]

100 ft isn't a putt IMO (keep in mind i suck)

i'd try to up an approach that left me an easy (much shorter) putt

 

[Hippy]

Hop, skip and putt!!!!!! Aim for the chains!!!

 

[ShaZaun]

miss.....

 

[Donovan]

Lots of these type questions leave out the enviornment, landscape and weather conditions. However, with all things being flat and clear, there is nothing wrong with throwing a floater at the chains at that distance.
