Anyone tell me what pressure points one feels when putting the ball in the hole?

Depends on the golfer. It looks like most golfers though do try to maintain a certain width to their elbows.

For me its the side of my pectoral muscles and the inside of my bicep. By pressure I don't mean squeeze the arms together. The arms hang lazily. Its just were I feel the arms touch. For me I like to put with relaxed arms. Not to the point that they are all loosy. But not rigid.

Multiquote, please. :-)


And I don't know that you'll get an answer to this, really.

Good putters do three things well. They do this with a variety of grips, lengths of putters, pressure points, etc.

Why not post a video of your putting stroke in the My Swing thread? And a reminder: you should create a My Swing thread.
