Looked into getting a Perfect Putter, I'm just going to be causally using it, to find straight putts and for putting practice and it's kind of steep at 300 USD. Looked into a stimpmeter, dunno why it's 150 for something that looks so basic. Then found this product from Eyeline Golf, at a reasonable 125. Anyone use this? It looks like it's a pretty true roll, there's no bounce as it comes off the ramp.

I mean, sure… you could make one, too.

Even just cut a piece of 2" PVC in half or something and put a little flexible piece of plastic at the end. Put some adjustable slide rails as back legs on it.

If you’re just looking for a straight putt can’t you do that with a level?

Thanks! I’ll try that.

    • Which was his second hole, yeah. I talked with Mav's coach/instructor last night, ha ha.
    • Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
