throw this threory into the mix......in his "perfect path" mini video he details taking the putter back "closed" and going to a open face on the followthru
and
he matches the putterhead with the ball followthru for distance control in another mini video....
beat the record of 14 and win a $1000.00

I don't have sound on my desktop.........but I am confused as to the relevance. The putter head is moving in an arc of sometype and he uses different hinges......I am getting close to right here?

Greetings,
It's called a synchronised stroke - matching the speed of the stroke to the speed of the ball. A great way to teach anyone distance control.
Watch the video.
Cheers

Alex,
Welcome to the forum, we look forward to your contributions. You own an interesting product. Rather point the members here to the video on your site, can you describe in more detail the theory behind your device?
Thanks,
Bagger

Hi Bagger,
Sure, I'd be happy to.
The Boomerang works on three levels. It's a ball returner that doesn't need batteries or power, it's an addictive skill challenge and it's also a professional putting aid. Basically it keeps you coming back because it's so challenging and at the sametime it gives you excellent feedback on every putt you hit - good and bad.
But here's the thing, because the target is on a thread and can be adjusted up or down to make a lip to catch the ball, when the ball is sitting in the target it tells you about the break. If it's sitting at 6 o'clock on a clock face then there is no break, so if you hit a ball and it curves left or right there is only one other variable - your stroke. It means you are learning from good putts and bad putts at the rate of 500/hour.
But you're not just bashing away, you can adjust the height (length of putt), break and difficulty. By winding the hole down to create a lip the challenge is then to catch the first ball on the lip and then use a second ball to knock it out and return both balls to you - it is in effect a two ball putting system designed so you wont ever have to move off your spot.
If you'd like more info about the Boom or putting in general I'd be only too happy to help.
Enjoy your practice!
Cheers
Alex
PS How was that coach?

Boomerang Review
I've had one of these for about a year, and I can attest to the benefits. It is a very useful device and can become very addictive. The only knock on it is the quality of the putting carpet that comes with it. After a year, there are still creases from being folded in the original box.
If this were improved, I would vote thumbs up.

How many people out there are tired of 3 putting or 40 PPR ? This is your ticket and I can prove it. What is it worth ? $400 for a driver or $70+ for a chance to reduce your handicapp???

1putt,
Appreciate your first post. Are you affliated with Boomgolf or a user? Assuming the latter, please share your insights. Your post caught my eye as it looks like an advertisement.
Thanks,
Bagger

This is just vertical hinging, right.
Matching the putterhead with the ball in the follow-through is no less than rubbish IMO. Lag pressure feel IS distancecontrol.
Bagger - the original topic is OK - delete the promotion speeches if you need to

Hi Thom,
BoomTech may not be everyone's cup of tea but it impressed Geoff Magnum enough to put us on his home page
Cheers
