Line on Ball

[redvet]

That really is interesting, but does this mean that manufacturers claims that a ball is longer etc etc are also false ! Must admit that I stopped buying ProV because of the info re needing high swingspeed to get advantage and switched to Titleist SoLo which of course claim that its good for slow swingspeeds. I dont see any difference between any of them and for example NXT Tour, Maxfli Rev Ext. My swingspeed off the driver is only 87 mph and I am getting about 250/270 yards. I am using a Cleveland Launcher Comp with the standard Cleveland Fujikura R shaft. Recently I went to the Titleist launcher day and tried their new driver with numerous shafts and none could match my accuracy and distance with the Cleveland.

I line up the logo with the target. Works well for me. When teeing off I dont position the ball in any which way.

...

"Puttin' for bird" is different than "makin' birds". I'm sure he meant lining up with a mark on the ball. At least I hope so.

Interesting, I just posted a thread about the Check-and-go gadget.
(marks the center of the ball with a line around the entire ball)

It has not impressed me.

I go with line it up and hit it!

Nothing - I just hit it

I line it up and hit it. It always takes too long to line up the exact line on the logo or a drawn-on line (and by too long I mean 2-3 minutes). Besides, if it shifts in the wind or when you stand up, you're screwed.

If you look at the callaway ball (my avatar), I make that arrow or "V" looking thing point into the cup or where I'm aiming. I don't know if that's what they intended, but it works well!

[aquacooled]

line it everytime.. I have since 3 putted.. it works for me even with the driver..

TP RED is my line..

Just got the Line-M-Up for Christmas. Let's hope it works for me!

[Newbie Collection Agency]

I just visualise a line from the ball to the hole compensating for breaks, works a treat, dont 3 putt much at all.

I use the equator (marked by the "Pro V1 392" wording)...it just gives me confidence.

[ezmoney5150]

I use that goofy check and go. I'm not sure if it works or not but I'll put the line on there any way so I just use that to mark the equator very light then mark a little one inch line and rub of the rest of the equator line out. for some reason it screws with my eyes optically. it doesn't look straight.

[ApplebyFan]

I use Line-M-Up.

[cdriver]

I use Line-M-Up.

Ditto - just got one last week. I have always used the "Pro V1" line or whatever is on the ball in that position. I think I am gonna like the line I draw on there.

[BritBoy]

I used to put a line on the ball all the time and then for some reason stopped. My putting went to crap!!! I have been fighting my putting all year then I played with a friend I hadnt played with for a while and he asked, "Why dont you put the line on anymore?". Dunno!!!

Anyway I started again and my putting has improved greatly.

New rule for me: Dont be lazy, put the line on.

I dont use the line to aim exactly at my line, I use more for a general idea of where I want to start the ball rolling.

I just got a tool for putting lines on my ball. I am anxious to get on the course and see if it really helps. I am hoping it does, something has to
