  1. I had previously purchased a Seemore Pure Center Blade putter and am still in my review period to exchange it. Yesterday I tried the O-Works R-line Mallet putter... The ball comes off of the face very soft... I guess I'll have to get used to that different feel. - - And I realize you need to putt out on a real green, not just in a golf store...lol... but it was almost hard to miss with this putter...And I like the grip a lot too. - - So, count me in on the O-Works putter...
  2. csciguy- You can indeed have your arms close together (ie aprox 2 inches or so at forearms) and still have them relaxed. You can also swing with that position in a powerless arms mode like Paul recommends. These methods are not contradictory. Try it. Just, don't try to touch your arms together which would be crazy. Another tip on this would be to make sure your right elbow is relaxed and not stiff as a board. Of course your hands and shoulders need to be relaxed as well. This is of course just my 2 cents; I'm sure others here could give much better advice.
  3. csciguy- I'm not a great golfer, but have read and studied the same stuff you have. I think it might be helpful to remove the word "tight" from your application of Hogan's material. Your arms could be very close together, yet not "tight". Tight, to me, implies tight muscles, tension, etc which is the worse thing for any golf swing. I'm sure you can have your arms close together, but still relaxed... That way you can blend Hogan's setup/swing ideas with Paul's. I know Paul does not seem to make a big deal about your arms being real close together. He tries to keep things as simple as possible and to get things to flow together automatically. By the way, if your arms are flying all over the place as you say, I'm thinking you need to look at how you are coiling and uncoiling.
