I was using my putter, and I noticed that most of my putts would either go left of the pin, or right of the pin. So, I found out what I was doing. On my back swing, the putter head would move and it wouldn't be straight when I hit it. I found a technique, but some of you may know it. I would put my putter a little more diagonal and when I would hit it; I noticed that it went a lot more straight and when I hit the ball, I was hitting it with more of an open face on the putter. If you were having this problem, I hope it helped.

How open? If the putter toe was at 12 o'clock normally at address, where is it now?

Depends on the green.
I'd say maybe a 11 or 1; depending on whichever way to look at it.
The head of the club; the part's that closest to you should be pointed to your right foot basically.

Its pretty much individual when it comes to putting. Though i know one thing for sure. Keep the head still until you hit the ball. Make a stroke that is constant everytime that you know how the ball will react so you can get a good feel for the putt.

For me, i am pretty netural putter. I use a white ice blade putter, 35" length. I set up to the ball were the ball is a bit ahead of center. I take a stance were my back is not arched over, i lean over a bit more than my normal golf stance, so i can get overtop the ball. I keep my hands hanging straight down from my shoulders, i just rock my shoulder back and through and let the putter do its thing.

The only thing i concentrate on is making sure my elbows do not move, away from my body, this locks everything into place for me. There not touching my body, but its easier for me to focus on them than the hands.

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
