Line on ball violates Rules of Golf?

Maybe this is a different use of the same term, but I think this is why many say that amateurs miss putts on the low side most often. I would define the apex to be the point of the break that is farthest from a straight line going from the ball to the hole. If you line up your putt to that point, it will miss to the low side almost every time. To get the ball to pass over that point, the aim point is usually even farther away from the hole because the putt is breaking during the first half of the putt, too.

Exactly. If you watch pros practice with aids they aren’t aiming at the apex.

I really like line marks on balls (my own or OEM's.  I have found them really helpful in aligning putts,  I know some say they are completely useless, but I find them helpful.

They work for me as well. First thing I do when I buy a doz is mark a line on them

Me too. I think they help me make more putts. I always align the line and then treat it as a straight putt.

I'm amazed this is still a thread, since the original OP never posted again. He certainly did start a discussion
