Now just use both your hands and "stick someone up!" Bend from your waist and put your hands (still in stick'em up position) on the putter grip in your palm. Done correctly your right index finger is down the aft part of the shaft and your left index finger is down the front side of the shaft. Your last 3 fingers of your right hand covers your left index finger. Now the neat thing about the "pistol grip" is that you can use your index fingers as pressure points to putt. Push off the left index finger (pressure point) to start the club back and push off the right index finger (pressure point) to start the club foward. ----- I've converted many people who have problems yipping. Instead of "wristy" wrists, they just focus that "wristiness" in their fingers and/or pressure points. __________________ I'm not a TGM or PGA certified Pro, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night jim_0068 View Public Profile Send a private message to jim_0068 Find all posts by jim_0068
