  Can you write a manual example? 

   

  I am am testing this with a 25.3 foot putt, -6.7 (downslope I’m inches) and 13 stimp.

   

  based on the formula, I came up with -1.675... now what do I do with that?

  (D x M)+/- elevation +1 

  25.3 X .7 (green speed multiplier)= 17.71  

  17.71- 5.7= 12.01 feet of power.

  I wanted to know how that whole scientific equation worked before. But thank you for your advice.

  Hello all well? I have been following your work with "la Ferrari" and I appreciate it very much ... I am having problems with the elevation and fall in gameplayer speeds' 9- '10 -'12 -'7.4 green speeds..whatever I can never get it right Does your calculation still work? Do you have the link from the worksheet to download? It would be a lot of help because I can not keep my daily chips that I get weekly ... I always lose them and it's frustrating ... I await your reply, my friend .. Caleb

  That's by a different person in a different thread.

  HI there. Thanks for the info.

  I  have only a question. Is there a way to config my fringe default patter meter. It is really annoying whenever I forget to check the 150 ft meter by default...and you know what happens next.

  Thanks.

  Unfortunately no there is not.

  After awhile, you will become accustomed to adjusting your scale. Train yourself to make it a routine when you are on/around the green.

  Like Don said.

  BTW - you are not alone.  I have either forgotten to check the meter scale, which club I have selected, or other items on soooo many shots it is ridiculous!  One thing I realized I was doing some times (on PC) was hitting the scroll wheel on my mouse just before I clicked to take the shot - which changed the last item I had clicked (like shot type, club, putting meter, ....)!!!

  Thanks to both of you. Admin would might as well better take note of this issue.
