"ELBOWS MOVING FINGERS" is a little scary to me. You may use either an arm stroke, wrist stroke, or shoulder stroke. Don't mix or you scores will end up in the blender.

Well it is a "seems to be." I "feel" as if my left elbow moves the club on the backswing and my right elbow moves the putter onto the ball. I hold the putter more in my fingers, tightly and locked solid, like Horton Smith, than in the hands. My left index finger is down on the shaft- this is where I feel the elbow pushing the club back. I don’t feel as if my shoulders do anything but I know they do.

What does Tiger do in his stroke? I didn’t copy his but it looks the same. My elbows are close to the hips and have the slight release of the putter head. It feels like “triangle” is smaller- closer to the hands with a line across the elbows rather than the shoulders. Again just seems to bes.

Another “seems to be” is although I have a natural arc in my backstroke, just like your training aid proved to me, I ‘feel’ as if I am taking it back straight and through.

Enough foot and the mouth, VJ. Something I do works, I never feel as if my putting is off and Lynn fixed my chipping so I’m closer to the pin than ever and that is sweet.

I enjoy reading your posts. Happy Memorial Day!
