Lesson 146-Position the putter first!
The reason you should have the proper putter fit. Putter must match where your
eyes tell you to stand.
Lesson 147-No method is so superior
that it is worth fighting your vision. Never force the set up. Let your eyes
tell you where to stand.
Lesson 148-Most putting issues are a
result of visual conflicts. Where do you see it best? You can't copy someone
else find your own set up.
Lesson 149-Good putters allow the
putter to rotate as required by the putter path and then let the stroke path
bring the putter to square.
Lesson 150-The putter path creates
rotation and not the player. Keeping the putter-face consistent to path
direction is more efficient.
Lesson 151-Hardest thing to do in
putting is to not react to feel. The putter opens and closes naturally. Let it
happen. Re-active fix=miss.
Lesson 152-The better the player the
more sensitive the feel. Mid stroke corrections never work. Reaction is random.
You can't fix random.
Lesson 153-Conformity ruins
creativity. Without creativity there is no excellence. Don't let common advice
ruin your chance to excel.
Lesson 154-When you miss a putt
something obviously went wrong. Be very slow to make a judgement. The
"fix" is often worse than the mistake.
Lesson 155-When you examine a miss
remember the following. Short is a probably a miss-hit not a mis-read. Blaming
your read is the easy way.
