Take a ball, and toss it underhand to someone. I bet the distance is spot on. So, you do have feel. Distance is judged with your eyes, and some days your eyes get off a little. If I notice I'm leaving putts a little short, I start looking at the back of the hole or a little past when lining up my putt. If I have a very fast downhill putt, I look short of the hole. This helps my eyes adjust to the speed of the greens.

This is method works best for me as well. I imagine a hole further away when I'm struggling with coming up short. At the putting green I actually put a ball 24 inches behind the hole and put to that. Works great for me.

      I have fought shoulder issues and seem to now have a pull/baby fade going on.  Not a great video, but are these numbers ok or should i try to get in to out.  I've realized this winter my concept of in to out was wrong in that what felt in to out was actually just the face being open to get it right.  The first one was rushed the second one is more typical.  Minor pull or if the numbers line up baby fade back to target.

      2026 Masters

      I suppose Rory will indulge in a bit of guilty pleasure giving Bryson some of his own medicine. Saw a piece of Rory's interview on some documentary about last year's Masters where BDC was still trying to game/mess with him long after he had stopped being a factor. At least that was Rory's perspective. Dude's a huntn dog and a storyteller. I'm going to enjoy this one knowing the end even more so than last year. And yeah, I know it's only half way through but Im early celebrating this one.
