I have a Heavy Putter B1-M, which feels like a sledge hammer, and is great for quieting the hands.

Great tips! I personally put an arrow on my balls to help for aiming.

Hey! Here's a where we can talk about everything putting. Let's start with a few questions:

Scotty Cameron American Classic Bullseye Blade

Best tip: distance control is the key to the long putt Best putt: 40 foot breaking putt Worst putt: sidehill 3 foot putt that became a 3 putt Difficult greens: Plan the approach shot. Use the rangefinder to determine how green looks from a distance. Best to be on same plane as hole, or putt uphill.

I use an Odyssey hawk. A model I bought at dicks, didnt know anything about anything, it was 120, which was less than the 2 balls yet still a mallet, which I wanted.

Best putt was a birdie putt from 20 feet, across a green, down one tier. First birdie of my life. Last year.

This weekend was a good putting weekend, had 13 putts for 9 holes, although I scored a 50.

Im straight back and straight through. I maintain the same general rhythm/speed for most putts, just adding backswing for more distance.

Lately, I try to pick up on an artifact I want to hit, a small blemish, a bit of a ball mark, etc... after reading the line and aim for that, not the hole. It is working for me.

    • Day 3, April 11, after the Masters and before dinner, I had time (quite a bit of time, actually) to hit about two dozen practice balls, complete with the pelvis limiting drill.  As with the past two days, I would do the drill for pelvis limiting, then take slow rehearsals of the backswing, checking positions in a mirror, and then reset and hit.  These were all indoors, off a mat, into a net, primarily with a 6-iron, although a few were with a 9-iron.
    • Day 234 4-11 Wrist arching and hips/chest in backswing. Really trying to hammer in the wrist arch, its such a  better swing when I do it correctly, its not in muscle memory yet. 
    • Day 557 - 2026-04-11 Got some work in after lessons. Backswing has to be shorter. Slightly cupped.
    • You know, I haven't followed much professional golf the past few years, and he wasn't the star of today's show, but I think I like this Sam Burns fellow.  I hope he plays well tomorrow.  
    • All of these missed fairways and the miraculous escapes followed by the seemingly reliable miracles suddenly stopping reminds me of another former Masters champion whose luck ran out on the 72nd hole of a major twenty years ago.
