| When you
are going through the putting woes, sometimes all that is necessary is to
change the style of putter. If normally you are using a 34" putter,
go to a 36" putter. If you are using a flat putter, go to an upright
putter. If you are using a blade, go to a mallet. Allow the putter to dictate
how you are going to stand to the ball as well; the configuration and size
of the grip allows you to change your hands on that club. Indeed, sometimes
the putter changes the stroke by the length of the shaft, the lie of the
club, the overall weight of the club and the grip dimension. Therefore;
in this change of the stroke, you have a new sensation and your old sensation
that has caused the missed putts vanishes very quickly. The old adage to
stay with the same putter and therefore miss putts is foolish. With today's
technology and materials there is a wide choice. For those who never get
it to the hole, you want to go to a little harder putter, and for those
who are a little more with the feel, a softer putter would be in order.
Alignment of the blade is crucial on all putts and some putts offer an easier
alignment configuration to your eye.
So the next time you are having putting woes, go into the pro shop, take
4 or 5 completely different styles of putters out to the putting green,
let the style of the putter dictate your style of stance and stroke and
you might just buy not just a new putter, but a new stroke that works
even better than your old one. Best of Luck, Mike Calbot |
