View Single Post #3 01-19-2006, 01:14 PM vj LBG Pro Contributor Join Date: Feb 2005 Posts: 246 If the right forearm is moving in the same plane as the shaft, the putter has support from the apendage. If the right forerm is not moving in the same plane as the shaft, the putter does not have support from the apendage. Further, if the right forearm is in plane with the putter, then #3 pressure point can trace the line!!! The only way to fix or monitor is with a mirror. Hard to feel-easy to see. The golfer better get a proper understanding of hinges on the greens. Just because it is a small stroke does not nulify the need for clubface control, in fact the very opposite would be true. Take your left arm and putter and hold horizontal to ground-swing it out so that your lever is at a 45 to the left shoulder. Now drop it to the ground- that is the face of a horizontal hinge. Take your left arm and putter and hold angled to the ground-swing it out so that your lever is at a 45 to the left shoulder. Now drop it to the ground- that is the face of an angled hinge. Take your left arm and putter and hold vertical to the ground- (it will be in front of your forward hip) swing it out so that your lever is at a 45 to the left shoulder. That is the face of a vertical hinge. Approximately two feet after low point take a look. The leading edge almost along the ground is horizontal, the leading edge at a 45 across the ground is angled, the leading edge at a 90 across the ground is vertical. ANYTHING between horizontal and angled is angled toward horizontal or horizontal toward angled. ANYTHING between angled and vertical is angled toward vertical or vertical toward angled. Your putting will improve as precision creeps in. Face control is a must for optimum putting and any of the IN BETWEENS should be monitored out slowly. NOW THEN? Who said becoming a great putter was easy? We live and die by the driver and the putter on the course. It is proven each week on the PGA and LPGA tour. All you must do is look,look,look at your stroke as opposed to look,look,look at the TV. vj View Public Profile Send a private message to vj Find all posts by vj
