“There is no similarity between golf and putting; they are two different games-one played in the air, the other on the ground” – Ben Hogan.

Putting is not about good or bad putting strokes it is about successful or unsuccessful outcomes.

Putting Stroke
In reality there are really only 2 different styles when it comes to the putting stroke.

(1) In to In guidelines

• In to in putting stroke the shoulders should rotate on an inclined plane
• The shaft moves on a plane defined by the lie angle of the putter for the entire stroke
• The club head moves on a curved path relative to the target
• The clubface rotates open to closed during the forward stroke

(2) Straight back and straight through guidelines

• The shoulders move on a vertical plane
• The club head moves directly on or above the target line at all times
• The clubface remains square to the target line at all times
• The ball position is not critical for square contact
