If you know you are stroking your putts well, but the ball is just not dropping for you, do you start fiddling around with putting stroke, stance or whatever?

Or, do you just keep hitting the good stroke knowing that eventually more putts are going to start dropping for you?
I change stuff all the time, though I rarely feel like I'm stoking the ball well. This last summer I putted hunched over with an open stance, upright with both open and squared up stances, and upright with a claw grip both open and squared up. I used a short stroke, a long stroke, straight back and through stroke, and a swinging gate type stroke.

At some point I get in a groove and make a fair amount of putts with each style, but once I miss a few birdies I think I should make, or miss a few short par putts I change something. Especially after missing the short par putts.

Pretty much stuck with the same putter all year, though.
