Something that Yoda told me last year after a succession of missed or dribbled putts. Like you I have issues with distance control on the greens due to a long putting stroke (funny how I have a long swing in the full game too!)
Anyways hopefully I have remember it right

1) 5 feet and in - bottom of the back of the cup
2) 5 feet to 10 feet - middle of the back of the cup
3) 10 feet to 20 feet - top of the back of the cup
4) 20 feet to 30 feet - one foot radius around the cup
4) 30 feet upwards - 3 foot radius around the cup

Its helped with my short range putting as you are aiming to hit the putt with enough strength to hit certain parts of the cup.
Hopefully Yoda will correct this if I got it wrong.
Alex
