Are you using the right Putter...?

A good putter should feel like an extension of your arm. Therefore, when it comes to the selection process, comfort when using one should be high on the list. After all, the key to good putting is confidence, which can also come from your compatibility with a putter. The first thing you need to recognise is the stance you adopt when standing over a putt, along with your eye alignment. The latter can determine the path of your stroke, which reinforces the importance of choosing a style to suit you

If you favour a 'straight back straight through to the hole' style of stroke, you need to try to align your eyes directly over the ball. 

A Putter that is face balanced will compliment this style and help you to be consistent in this stroke when it matters the most.



If you are positioning your eyes inside the ball at address, this encourages a stroke that works inside your intended line on your takeaway, also known as 'in-square-in'. This is a very common style. I would suggest a putter with some added toe weight, which will help you to square up the face upon impact.

If you're struggling on the greens (we've all been there), whether it be controlling distance, reading lines, or holing out. You may benefit from experimenting with some other putters and styles. In which case, don't hesitate to book in for a lesson, so we can identify what could work for you.
