Why do top-performing golfers experience variations in their putts, unlike lower-ranked players?
Analyzing the distance performance of the leading PGA tour putter compared to the 192nd-ranked player reveals a striking 40% difference at an 8-feet range. The significance of missing a short putt, ranging from 4 to 8 feet, is comparable to the impact of your best drive of the day on your overall score. You can review the statistics on the PGA Tour website.
Traditional putting resembles placing the golf ball where a door would close, setting you up square to your target. As you swing the putter (similar to opening a door), the goal is to strike the ball at the point where the door would close, aligning it with your target line. However, even a small deviation, such as positioning the ball 1/8 of an inch (1 cm) away from the door’s closing point, can cause issues. Shifting it back by 1/8 of an inch may result in a push, while moving it forward by the same amount could lead to a pull.
Now, consider the putting stroke with a side-saddle putter featuring a straight up (plumb) shaft. In this configuration, the shaft consistently travels along your target line. Whether you place the ball 1/8 of an inch back or forward, it won’t disrupt your shot. The brilliance of this setup lies in the fact that the putter shaft always stays on the target line, eliminating the tendency to pull or push your putt.
