I often hear people that there's a 2-putt max rule in effect on punched greens. Sorry, no.
The definition of Ground Under Repair explicitly does not include aeration holes.
Rule #13 (Putting Greens) explicitly lists aeration holes as not "damage" that can be repaired.
In fact, without a local rule in place, you don't even get relief when your ball is in an aeration hole. Model Local Rule E-4 allows you to take a ball out of an aeration hole on the green, but it does not give relief from aeration holes in the line of your putt.
