Love to know how you putt? Traditional or a new style?
@coegj
@coegj 5 лет назад
Conventional but, on long putts over 20 feet it's a left hand dominate stroke and on putts closer to the hole it's a right hand dominate stroke with a decidedly firm grip of the right hand. It's worked for a decade or so, but I would change in a second if the real secret was whispered to me.

I putted cross-handed or left hand low since I was 14 years old. Never another way. 2 years ago I got the worst case of the yips at age 58. Tried almost everything. Then I tried the claw or pencil grip, the yips disappeared. I’ve tried going back to see if the yips might be there, they weren’t, but I’ve stuck with the claw. Works for me!

Traditional for 30+ years , claw ( 3 fingers on top) the last month or so ( keeping my right hand/wrist out of the stroke has made a huge difference for me in accuracy but mostly in confidence )🍻

Love this grip I recently changed to it, I think it’s called the pencil grip. My distance control has improved so much! I practiced it for a couple a months before I put it in play, a lot more birdie puts dropping since I did

Andy, I tried this putting technique when I started to pull my putts left. I now put with normal grip on long putts and from 10 feet and in with the claw type grip. I have found it takes the right hand (my dominant hand) out of it a bit resulting in straighter putts. Must say my putting has improved a lot. The other change I have made is I have a Ping mallet putter and I lift the toe off the ground slightly, the putter is probably too flat for me being quite tall.

I just tried using this style of putting this weekend, and I've had one very good day using it and one day not that good, I still not sure how to put my hands on the handle? Do you start the putting stroke together or do you start with the top or bottom hand? I would like to see a step by step walk through of how to put ones hands on the putter and the recommended ball position.

Hope it works for you Andy- just changed my grip so both hands are level with each other and fingers interlocked-again trying to take the wrist action out of things but will give this ago aswell. A real eye opener for me was reading the 'Dave peltz putting bible'. Great book!

I adapted my own style about 10 years ago ago I kept over hitting putts with conventional style. Since I've watched more golf on TV I've seen people using it too! Kind of prayer grip style, don't know if it works better but feels comfortable for me
@trxe420
@trxe420 5 лет назад
I switched to left hand low this year with a little forward press and it really seemed to help with my distance control. Recently I dropped the forward press and now hover a bit, seems to get a better roll. Still more, I'm about to go back to a blade from a mallet and see if that suits my game even more. I have tried the claw, just cant seem to feel comfortable with it, especially lag putting. Who knows what Fleetwood is doing, but it seems to work for him

I recently swapped to split hands palms up putting grip and changed the grip on my putter to BJM Kotahi grip (although you can still try it on a normal grip). Transformed my putting, so easy to keep on plane, very similar reasons I suspect to the Tommy grip. Else uses this grip I believe which has given him a new lease of life apparently! Give it a try 👍

I use a strange grip. I use a short of claw grip where I put the putter grip between my first two fingers on my right hand . It is a sort of a modified claw grip
@petehill6556
@petehill6556 5 лет назад
I used this for 3 years Andy and for me by taking the right hand out of the equation prevented me from pulling the putts left of target. I did find though it was difficult to judge long distance and was better from within 10 feet or so.
@ryanoneill8811

@davidgroom9667
@davidgroom9667 5 лет назад
Good video. The idea d the claw grip (I’ve read) is to take the hands out of the stroke - you have to use your shoulders. Many find that their alignment is better and that the ball sets off on the intended line more - BUT some struggle to judge distance.

Only way to judge if better is to run a Pelz putting test with old grip vs new grip or old putter vs new putter. This is the best way to assess any changes.

@stuartmidgley5173
@stuartmidgley5173 5 лет назад
Back in April, I changed over to a pen/claw grip similar to Tommy Fleetwood. I feel it takes 5-6 strokes off my score by taking my right wrist out of the swing. However, it does not work for me with any putter. I get the best results with a toe weighted putter as opposed to a face balanced putter (which would be my preferred choice). Watching Tommy's action would lead you to think it is all straight back and through (favouring a face balanced putter) but for me, I consistantly push it left of the hole, where as the toe balanced putter seems to keep it on line (much to the disappointment of my opponent in a recent inter club comp when I sunk a winning 15 ft putt). So my recommendation is to try the grip, but possibly with a variety of putters (face, toe and heal balanced).
@chancemelo4955
@chancemelo4955 5 лет назад
I actually have two different putting grip styles i use when on the greens for me when im on longer distanced putts im using the claw grip and on about 10 feet and in im standard conventional overlap kinda style grip but yes the claw for me is something that at least on longer putta has transformed my putting as far as seeing the lines and distance control

Use the “fang” grip with grip between index and middle finger on right handed (I RH). Works better with smaller standard grips, but been successfully using for 2 years now. I No longer have the nick name “lunch ticket” at the club. Lol.

After your opening words, why did hair come right into my head ? Glad you said it too ! I've used the claw for a couple of years and its taken shots off. I do hole from over 40ft now, last week I birdied the 5th at Prestatyn from 45ft. Why do I use it ? It stops me breaking my wrists, it controls the face, it keeps the face on line with the target much better for me. Whatever style you use, being able to set the ball off online is the most important part of putting. Can't wait to see you after the Rooney do ! Its going to be funny, views through the roof and new subs in the 10s of thousands !

@@TheAverageGolfer I was struggling with too much arc and after a couple of lessons I knew the problem but not the solution. Ian Baker Finch said use the claw if your struggling with too much wrist action in the putting stroke one night as I was watching the PGA tour and I've never looked back. Works a treat for me Andy.

I’m near sighted, wear contacts, 59 years old and had to wear reading glasses. I accidentally left out my left contact and now I can read without reading glasses and see far away enough to pass the the driver test, but best of all I started putting much better, making way more putts inside 15 feet.

Wrestled with different putters this year. Bi time. All traditional grip. Switched back to the claw after a year away....carded a 73 today. As Chamblee says “I’ve not seen someone who has gone to this grip putt worse.” It will help you putt. Period.
