joen Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Does anyone draw a line on their golf ball? I know some people claim it doesn’t help, but I personally find it helpful for alignment. Anyways, I always find the line I draw with a sharpie to be less than straight.....it wears off significantly in a round....you get marks on your club faces (I know...first world problem.). I got six dozen golf balls with the imprinted alignment aid from golfballs.com. I really like this imprinted on the golf ball as it eliminates all the problems that I previously mentioned. Just thought if anyone else uses a line, you might want to check them out. By the way, I do not work for nor do I have any financial interest in golf balls.com. Lol.

GB13 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Yes, I like this idea a lot. I always align the line while putting so I can focus on speed and forget about the line. It is a little annoying having to redraw the line after a few holes, but it doesn't bother me too much. I do think this is a viable product that I MAY try in the future.

GolfSpy_BNG Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I not only use the line for putting, I also use it when on the tee. I started doing it for putting and found that my alignment and aimpoint was considerably more consistent. After making the turn during a terrible driving round I decided to use the line on the tee to try to eliminate alignment thoughts when addressing the ball. My driving accuracy has greatly improved since that round. I found it also helps to visualize my swing path through the ball if I absolutely need to hit a draw or fade.

Berg Ryman Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 So, as mentioned, the test that MGS did a few years ago shows no real statistical advantage for the line, but I too am a line guy. I don't draw one on there, I use the company stamp or my own text from a personalization to line it up. For example, I love the Truvis from Chrome Soft, but when the pattern interferes with the line it bugs me something fierce.

deejaid Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I’ve started experimenting with different lines.

mackdaddy Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Having a bad knee has made using a line nearly impossible. I can't get into a squat and line the line up for the putt. I did for years. Now that I have stopped using the line I have changed my putting style. I read my putts by going to the low point on the line and looking back to find the point on the cup where the ball has to enter. I look at that spot and gage how high above that line I have to aim for the ball to enter at my spot. Then I stroke the putt. I make way more putts now than I did when I putted with a line.

cnosil Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I use a line. Tried going without for a while and my putts per green went up. I draw it with a sharpie and it generally holds up most of the round. If it gets too faded, I just put the ball back in the template and redraw.

jayjay0808 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I used to be a line player all the time. But late last season I mixed it up and just started placing the logo of the ball perpendicular to my start line.

00sportsman Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Depending on the green, I use the manufacturer's line for putting. If there's a good spot 6" - 8" in front of the ball on my intended line I can use that to start the putt. If there isn't a spot I can focus on, I'll use the line to make sure I get lined up. I can't seem to get my head located so I'm seeing the line properly, it always looks further right than it is. I always try to remember that I'm not good enough to get mad!

Mr. 82 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I tried it for awhile and I still suck at putting, so being that I am as lazy as Fred Couples admits to being (he told Feherty, "I do a lot of nothing, and I am VERY good at it.") I just stopped doing it. I still have the sharpies and the ball alignment tool in my bag. Maybe if I am bored one day and waiting on your group to clear in front of me I can color lines on my golf balls again.

Drumdog Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I used to draw a line all the way around my ball to use for alignment. I stopped 3 years ago to test whether it was helping me or not. I have not gone back to the line since I am putting better. I also think no line speeds up play. I see too many guys fiddling with the ball trying to get it in the exact alignment and taking way too long to get the shot off.

PAgolfer2017 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I'm not a line guy. I used to be, but I found that I always had to feel like it was lined up perfectly and it drove me crazy. Despite no longer gaming the SPIDER Tour putter, the one thing I liked about that was no alignment aid on top. Felt like I was more free when I was putting. I was more focused on my intended line and putting a good stroke on the ball as opposed to making sure the putter and the ball was lined up.

txgolfjunkie Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I use a line on short (15' and shorter) putts, but I don't like anything on long putts.

I have been doing a lot of thinking since reading that study. On my golf trip to Florida in a little over a week I am going to do half of the eight rounds without using the line and the other half using the line like I have for the past twenty something years. I track my strokes gained in both putting and the rest of my game. I want to see if there is a difference. I know this is only a study of one and statistically speaking is totally worthless....but the study involves me....and I want to see if there is a difference between the two. I will report back. And your takeaway summarizes it perfectly.
