Using Blast Motion for Putting Practice

Interesting video. So with everything else being the same, set up through swing, just trying to accelerate to max earlier produced a higher speed at impact. How do we get to that feel though? I don’t want to derail this thread though. I can move to a new thread.

Yeah, that's not for this topic, just to show you what a good "number" is for "hand speed." Hip speed is even lower, of course. 😄

I really enjoyed the video about hand speed. Thanks

I know this is an older post but just curious @iacasdo you still use the Blast sensor for putting practice? If so any drills or ideas of how to use it?

I have one and have used it on and off for a few years mostly indoors. I've used the drill from the COVID practice plan to work on consistent stroke length and keep an eye on consistent rhythm and tempo for the various distances with the sensor. I get bored with it pretty quickly though so just wondering if there's anything I should be doing that I'm not haha

I use it as needed with students, and I have a library of my own putting strokes to see if things get off at all (my tempo might change a little, maybe, etc.).

It seems like you're basically doing that stuff, though?

Yeah pretty much. Thanks!
