Does anyone play Perfect Putt 360 when you practice putting? What other types of games do you play to practice your putting? I am just looking for different games or a practice routine to take some more strokes off the game.
For those who haven't played Perfect Putt 360 here is the link to the score sheet that will tell you how to set everything up and how to score the game. Really simple! My best score is 221! Good luck!

two in a row or you don't go is one that I use but I'll have to explain it later.
I don't get the disc-occe? How is this used for putting practice?
read my explanation a little closer
Disc-occe is another "approach" or "placement" based disc game-
I'll show you...
Oh, my bad, but I thought this was a putting practice thread? 
I sense some deep seeded sarcasm .. 
putting is not the only place strokes can be shaved off your score, yo!
Man, I actually do need to start reading a little better 
ha ha
I like this one I read about somewhere. You take six discs to a spot and putt, doing your thing (either all from one spot or moving around a little), but the thing is, only the fifth one counts. If you miss your fifth putt, you die.

Ya, I've heard about that one somewhere too. Good way to practice clutch putting I guess, ha ha
that sounds fun, but I kinda question the benefit.. only reason being the whole five disc factor & only the 5th counts... seems like it would give you a false sense of security, knowing you really only have to make the 5th discs - subconsciously knowing you have 4 practice shots and then the must make. I don't really know how the game is played though.
I try to never putt with more than 3 disc, typically 2 - I don't remember where I heard or read this, but putting with more than 1 or 2 putters gives your subconscious a cushion or something like that, making you concentrate less on each putt/ knowing you have more "chances".
that game looks pretty sweet... definitely going to try it out.
I'll print some score-sheets & bring them to bag tag tonight to hand out
a couple games that were taught to me...
"Up-Shot Twenty-One" (putt & approach)
Similar to basketball "Twenty-One", Up-Shot works like this-
Any amount of players, but works best with 2-6 people; 2 discs per player(or more if desired). Players alternate picking a "shot spot" (typically "up-Shot" is more than 10 meters away, "Twnety-One" would be played within, or just outside the circle). Each player shoots from selected spot. A disc made into the basket counts as 5 ponits, hits chains(but not in) is 3 points, hits any metal other than the pole & base is 2 points. Any shot that missed and did not score can be putted in for 1 point. i.e. I shoot and hit chains with the 1st disc and completely miss the 2nd disc shot, but was able to putt the 2nd shot in, thus 3 points for my "chains" and 1 point for the "left overs" = 4 points. Game continues until a player reaches 21 points or more. In the case more than one player finishes over 21, highest score wins.. spread must be by at least 2 points.
"Twenty-One" (putting)
same as "Up-Shot Twenty-One" but closer, typically played within, or just outside the circle(10m)
finally a game I made up (maybe someone else made it b4 me, but I have never heard of or seen b4)
"Disc-occe" (approach)
Disc-occe is another "approach" or "placement" based disc game-
Basically it is Bocce ball with Golf Discs
how it's played:
A game can be contested between 2-8 players, or two teams of two, three, or four. A match is started by a randomly chosen side being given the opportunity to throw a "marker" disc or ball.
The side that first attempted to place the marker is given the opportunity to throw first. Once the first throw has taken place, the other side has the opportunity to throw. From then on, the side which does not have the disc closest to the marker has a chance to throw, up until one side or the other has used all their discs. At that point, the other side throws its remaining discs. The team with the closest disc to the marker is the only team that can score points in any frame. The scoring team receives one point for each of their discs that is closer to the marker than the closest disc of the other team. The length of a game varies by region, but is typically from 7 to 13 points.
