Kor.A.Door Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I figured out the putting issues. It's the 260lb person attached to the grip. I did find something interesting while trying multiple putters at the GG today. On long putts (lag) a standard grip works pretty good. But when I tried 10' putts I was missing them to the right (pull) with every putter I tried. So I went to a cross handed style grip, and I was able to get the ball on a straighter line toward the hole. I'm not sure if I am pulling the ball with my shoulders, or if I am turning my wrist during the stroke, both cause the same issue. I am going to try some cross handed putting tomorrow on some shorter putts and see if that helps or at the very least gets the ball starting straight to my target Rickp and PING Apologist #9 2 Quote Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charli Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I was annoyed with my caddie today. I have a range finder and he wouldn't use it all day. Kept telling me the yardage then I had to gun it. Sometimes he was correct sometimes he was off by 17 yards. He also read some greens wrong which one of them I saw a break and he said “I've been working here for 15 years†so I putt it straight and took a dive. Very annoying experience Just use the range finder, you aren't impressing me telling me distances. Use the range finder and that's it.

Kor.A.Door Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 To follow up from my pitting rants lately, I putted exclusively cross- handed today. It went way better than the last multiple number of rounds. I learned 2 things. 1. Putting outside of 20 feet, I need to putt standard grip to lag. 2. My miss was from a lazy stroke that would hit out toward the toe of the putter instead of the center, when I did hit the center I made really good putts toward the hole and many went in. If I hit out on the toe l, the ball went a bit left to start and always cam e up short, overall I am pretty happy with the change, I think I just need to practice it a bit more.

Mr. 82 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I get it but it was mandatory you walk and take a caddyWell, if that was the situation I would have used my own range finder and pulled my own clubs, and read my own putts, and told the caddie to rake the trap when I hit in there and that would have been it. Otherwise I would have just told him to STFU. Like I told my brother today, when he was telling me about his round at Shinnecock Hills where they also required a caddie, "I'm the world's best caddie!
