    Could someone please give me a tip on putting oakmont greens. I just played a ready go tournament and shot +5 with 26 putts in 9 holes. The ball always seems to stop right at the hole on up hill putts...dont know why?

    You've probably figured out how the ball takes off on downslopes and if you're putting carefully to control that that's good. You can't really apply that to the uphill putts because they slow down as fast as the downhill ones speed up. You just have to know this and putt for 2 feet or so past the cup going uphill.  GL
