Reader Question 4

… wondering if you could ask the panel for their thoughts on basic putting fundamentals? I went down and watched the Canadian Open and noticed that there really are a lot of different styles, grips, and even lengths of putters out there. Are there any core elements involved here or is the putting stroke really just completely personal and subjective?

Is the Long Iron Obsolete?

Reader Question from Carl

Reader Question 2

I was hoping to get the panel’s opinion on what the proper ratio or regime might be between practice and playing. It seems to me that there are a lot of things that are better worked on out on the range or within the friendlier confines of a short game area while, in contrast, many parts to the game (and improving your score) can only truly be addressed during an actual round.

To further complicate things there seems to be a movement toward additional factors such as nutrition, the mental side, conditioning, etc (the list is getting longer not shorter). If I really want to shoot lower scores should I be learning while out on the course, concentrating on fine tuning my technique, getting my putter fitted, or changing my diet?

Reader Question 1

I’ve been hearing and seeing a lot of advice about the putting stroke recently which suggests that better putting strokes employ an equal distance in the backswing and follow through. I find equal back, equal forward promotes more of a jerky stroke or recoil. I’m curious to get the opinion(s) of your panel.
