Anyone try this new putting aid yet. I just picked one up and it seems to be helping me out. Its called the EOB or eyes over the ball.

I dont sell them but I do know the people that do sell them. They go for $19.95 and you can find it [link removed] I think Golfsmith carries them too.

Before getting closed for being an obvious spam thread, I will add a putting aid that seems to be working for me.  At a recent scramble tournament, my wife got closest to the hole on a par-3. She received a putting training aid called Pathfinder, made by a Swedish company. The company professes that over 300 tour pros use it, including Henrik Stenson.

It's a plastic plate-like device that you put on the green, then insert some pegs in adjustable sockets to work on your path, both back and through. Very similar to the tee drills, but these little pegs are magnetic, so even if you hit them, they will stay in place, but you can hear it if your path is off.  The gizmo also has a mirror so you can check your eye location. You set the ball down in an indent, set the pegs and work on maintaining a good path. Since they are adjustable, you can set them for either straight-back-straight-thru or an arc path.

Anyway, it showed my path was all screwed up. I was taking the putter back outside the line, which was causing a lot of pulled putts. After working with it for a short while, I think I've got a more square path and the ball rolls end over end more often. Time will tell, but I sank six putts yesterday in the 10-15' range, so I like it.

    • Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light. 
    • Day 117 12-7 A bit of chipping practice today. Full swing- hit some real balls to see where Im at. 
    • Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.
    • I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.
    • Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
