Geoff's method to putter becoming is a piece specific from what we generally listen from teachers and golf magazines. For starters, maximum golfers are informed that their eyes should be 'above the ball.
However, Mangum does no longer believe in that training. Instead, he feels that the course of the face and the course of wherein the eyes are looking need to be the equal. And the route of the face and the eyes have to be pointing at the ball. Sevam1 from Secret In The Dirt fame discussed this properly as regards to the overall golfing swing:
So, if we examine the photograph of the golfer with the 'eyes over the ball', we will see that his face is not pointing at the ball (yellow lines show wherein the face is directed):
From studying Geoff's work, he feels that the golfer should be able to bend over from the waist and neck 'clearly.' Then hand the hands obviously.
From there, the putter period must be about 2-inches above the wrist line of the arms as they're placing. So the golfer will nonetheless be gripping down at the club. I measured myself on this and located that I wished a 35-inch putter to gain this.
The other element that Geoff discusses on this thread is that the lie perspective of putters are often too *flat*. He feels that the shaft of the putter need to be as such where it is in line with the forearm. In TGM terms, that is regularly called 'getting the proper forearm on plane.'
Geoff discusses that with most putters being too flat, it creates a stroke that calls for extra torque that's elaborate.
In the quit, Geoff has an example displaying what it have to seem like:
So as we are able to see:
1. Waist Bent clearly
2. Neck Bent naturally
three. Arms hold certainly
4. Eyes and Face are pointing inside the same direction
5. Eyes and Face are directed at the ball
6. Shaft at the equal plane as the forearms I simply idea this turned into interesting stuff for the ones inquisitive about a exclusive perspective on putter fitting.
