I’ve never seen this. I guess the girl is holding out her arms to better figure out slope?

AimPoint putting is all the rage in golf, and ahead of the U.S. Women's Open, Michelle Wie West explained the benefits of the system.

A) That's just AimPoint. Like, original AimPoint. Mark Sweeney did this a dozen plus years ago.
B) The camera bump on modern iPhones can screw this up. 😄

Yeah I guess my "interesting" was less in its actual information and more in its shameless piggybacking

and if your case isn’t a flat surface the read won’t be correct.  plus a phone isn’t very long

 

just get a digital level and you can start to teach yourself how to feel the slope and angles and determine how much a putt breaks

 

that is the OG way aimpoint works.  liked it better than the new version

 

i basically have the aim chart memorized for stimp of 9 and adjust from there

Driver: :tmade: R11S (9 degree)
Woods: :tmade: R11 3 (15.5 degree) & 5 (19 degree)

    • Day 199: did a stack session. 
    • As usual, this is difficult to answer without seeing your swing. So, my first suggestion is to start a My Swing Thread.  After that, my next best guess is that you fade (slice) your driver more than your 3-wood.  I once played with a guy who had such a glancing blow with his driver that I could out drive him with my 6 iron.  Get with a good instructor and learn to hit your driver properly. Even with 93 mph swing speed you should be able to hit your driver 210-230. 
    • I recently returned to golf and got a Swing Caddy SC300i. It has confirmed what I have suspected for some time - I hit my 3 wood as far as my driver. This is backed up by similar swing speeds of 93 MPH. I have had 6 months off golf and exercise, so my speed is down a bit on what it was. Driver is 12 degrees, D1, Cobra 70g stiff shaft. 3 wood is 15 degrees, D0, Cleveland Gold 65g stiff shaft. The 3 wood feels great to me and flies straight. The driver feels dead to me and tends to slice. A local pro thinks the shafts are both a little on the soft side of stiff (which suits for me). The only difference I can see is the driver total weight is 340 grams and the 3 wood is 320 grams. My question is what is going on? Surely 20 grams should not slow my driver down to the same swing speed as my 3 wood?
