Did anyone see the Azinger short game segment? He really went against the grain with some his pitching techniques. That said, I can't wait to try it!

Lots of good advice in this thread. Don't be afraid to switch putters, just make sure you put the time in practicing with a new one. Make sure that whatever putter you decide on, sole it level and square . By that I mean flat so that the toe isn't pointing up(common fault of mine). Square to the line, I like putters with a line on them that I line up with a line I draw on the ball and point that in on the path I want the ball to go. Be careful not to add loft be tilting the shaft too far to the right at address, ball will tend to hop off of your putter. I'm a more or less straight back and through putter. For me its all about being able to swing the putter back and through freely on the intended line. here are my keys; 1.stand tall- when I tend to crouch a little I don't "swing" the putter well 2.don't sole the putter- I try to hold the putter completely off the top of the grass...makes a huge difference in swinging the putter freely...takes a lot of practice 3. keep my head still through the putt- when I'm on I can hear a 3-4 footer go in in the whole I don't see it go in. 4. hold my finish- I try to hold my follow through after the putt....seems to help with tempo That's it! The rest is just learning to read break and speed. Oh and practicing endlessly! Here's a good drill. only takes 2 balls and you can do it anywhere. Instead of putting to a cup or jar or whatever. Practice putting to a ball. Place 2 balls X feet apart. Putt one ball into the other one. Hit it hard enough so that you move the first one off of its spot. You'll be surprised how well you can hit the other ball dead center with some practice. If you can putt and hit another ball from X feet away, your putts are being to be dead on line. Good luck! Randy
