In past games you would be set to 12 feet and then simply adjust for the downhill slope and any break. Now if it's a straight putt and you don't adjust 4 feet (in my scenario), then you will likely over run the putt unless you utilize a good putting tempo. This doesn't take into affect fast putting conditions which will only make the amount you need to adjust even greater. Am i the only one who just now realized this flaw in the game?

I've actually found that I tend to underswing when putting, so the extra distance on the standard length helps me out some...but I've also blown some shorter, straight putts past the hole because I forgot to adjust the distance and/or stroke length.
