RARELY MISS FROM WITHIN 6FT WITH POP PUTTING METHOD I SPENT all my life trying to find the perfect putting stroke. I always stuck by the traditional opening and closing method that works on rotational arc but this isn’t the best method. It is difficult to master because you need amazing timing, a constant ball position and a consistent release pattern. The technique I am about to teach you is far easier. The physics behind putting is that you want the club to have a square club face at impact. Therefore, if we are opening and closing when swinging the putter, there’s a greater chance that the face is not going to be square and your putt will not find the cup. Instead of using the opening/closing method, you should use a technique that Brandt Snedeker uses called The Pop Method. This is when you get the putter face square and move it in a circular motion so the shoulders are making a consistent movement. This helps you apply pressure to the putt instead of swinging at different lengths to determine the power. Your distance control is pivotal when putting and The Pot Method helps you have more control as you are always hitting it on the square face with the same technique and movement.
Watch Snedeker putt because he rarely ever misses from 6ft or under. You can be the same if you follow these tips and watch the video of me instructing this putting technique on www.Worldwide.Golf WATCH THE VIDEO AT WorldwideGolf WorldwideGolf
