How much of a reduction of power are we talking about? I am sitting at 400 feet of power. That means that I have a lot of ace run potential and higher parking potential. It also means that I place a lot of discs around 30 or so feet from the basket. My poor putting puts that average at 35 to 50 percent in at best. Also means that I have the nasty habit of missing the putt and putting myself in a position to make the exact same putt on the opposite side. I hate three putting and it happened all too frequently in 2010, a couple of times even during a tournament.
There is this threshold where I do not know what happens, but at 20 feet and in I am a 90 percent putter, usually only missing because I am sloppy or am not concentrating. Yet once I get to 25 feet I drop to about 75 percent and as I said 50 percent or lower once I hit 30 feet. It all depends on my current confidence and the weather.
If we are talking a reduction of power from 400 to 300, I would consider taking the putting wish. Most holes in this area are 330 or less. If we are talking a reduction to 340-350 foot power, then definitely I would take putting. If we are talking 280 feet, then definitely I will keep the power (or in this case since it is a wish, increase it to 500+).
