Rocco Mediate & Jimmy Ballard: Has the Golf Swing Changed?

Putting Aids For Your Putting Stoke

We all see others with putting aids to help them shoot lower scores. Should you invest in these? Well you maybe surprised that my answer is…maybe. The reason that I say this is that you need to have a couple of questions answered first. The first question is: Do you putt in an arc? The second question being: Do I move the putter straight back and straight through during my stroke? The answers to these two simple questions will provide you with the information that you need to go and purchase the correct putting aids that will help improve your putting stroke and to lower your scores.

What are putting aids? The definition of putting aids is vast. However, most are described as devices made to help you become a better putter. One example of putting aids would be an indoor putting green. Indoor putting greens are strips of artificial turf that usually measure between six and twelve feet long. They look like a putting surface and you can practice inside or outside. These will give you a very realistic feeling to your practice time. Most of these are easy to set up and take down in very little time. They are used in offices as well as homes and can be taken on the road if you travel quite often.

Putting Aids – Stan Utley Putting Method

Stan Utley is the author of the book The Art of Putting. In it, he concludes that the putter, as every other club during a golf swing, moves around one central point being your spine. With this thinking the putter head would naturally move in an arc around your spine, this it has become known as the arc putting method. With this putting theory, it is thought that the putter head is not manipulated during the putting stroke which in turn leads to a smaller chance for error. Utley has worked with such tour players as Jay Haas, Peter Jacobson, Darren Clarke and Rocco Mediate.

Putting Aids – Dave Pelz Putting Method

Dave Pelz began his career as a NASA scientist and brought his analytical thought process to golf and specifically the short game. Pelz has taken statistics on all aspects of the short game for years. His first book Putt Like The Pros laid the ground work for the follow up The Putting Bible. It is Pelz belief that the putter head and putter face should stay on a direct line with your target or target line (for a breaking putt) throughout the entire stroke. Many critics think that it is impossible to consistently manipulate the putter head as needed to produce a putt that will roll on the desired line. Pelz currently focuses on his Phil Mickelson, two-time Masters Champion.

Putting Aids – TOMI Putting Sytem

The TOMI Putting System was invented by Marius Filmalter. The TOMI Putting System uses technology to give you information on your alignment at set-up and impact, the direction of your stroke path, the amount of rotation in your swing as well as the speed of your putter at impact. No matter which putting method that you use, this system really measures where you are when it counts the most and that is impact! The TOMI comes in a personal version as well as a professional version.
