00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.360
Okay, an easy way to identify where you're striking the ball on the putter is
2
00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:07.780
to get
3
00:00:07.780 --> 00:00:09.140
some impact tape.
4
00:00:09.140 --> 00:00:12.120
You can get this at, you know, any of the golf websites.
5
00:00:12.120 --> 00:00:13.660
Lie angle tape works pretty well.
6
00:00:13.660 --> 00:00:18.360
You can see I've got this piece of lie angle tape right now, tapes across the
7
00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:19.460
putter face.
8
00:00:19.460 --> 00:00:25.370
So if I were to set up here, now I only have a 3 footer, but I'm going to have
9
00:00:25.370 --> 00:00:26.300
to pretend
10
00:00:26.300 --> 00:00:29.060
that this is about a 20 footer in order to make a mark.
11
00:00:29.060 --> 00:00:33.710
So I'm going to get up here, use all the rules of everything that we've talked
12
00:00:33.710 --> 00:00:35.020
about so far.
13
00:00:35.020 --> 00:00:36.740
I went to the center of the hole.
14
00:00:36.740 --> 00:00:43.300
And now you can see if you zoom in, you can see that I made contact pretty much
15
00:00:43.300 --> 00:00:44.140
between
16
00:00:44.140 --> 00:00:46.980
the sweet spot and that 16th of an inch that I was talking about.
17
00:00:46.980 --> 00:00:51.230
So I hit that dead center where I wanted to, and this will just provide
18
00:00:51.230 --> 00:00:52.300
feedback so that
19
00:00:52.300 --> 00:00:56.820
you can monitor how close you are to where you want to actually hit it.
20
00:00:56.820 --> 00:01:03.100
So this is a good way to have an object that is minimally evasive.
21
00:01:03.100 --> 00:01:06.480
You can just do your normal putter or your normal putting stroke and it will
22
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:06.920
give you
23
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:10.730
very good feedback as to how well you are hitting ball in the putter or on the
24
00:01:10.730 --> 00:01:11.780
sweet spot.
25
00:01:11.780 --> 00:01:14.420
So give that a try, get some lie tape.
26
00:01:14.420 --> 00:01:18.360
If you don't want to use lie tape, you can always just get some chalk and kind
27
00:01:18.360 --> 00:01:18.860
of cover
28
00:01:18.860 --> 00:01:20.500
the face a little bit with chalk.
29
00:01:20.500 --> 00:01:21.500
Do not use a sharpie.
30
00:01:21.500 --> 00:01:25.310
You can use dry erase chalk, impact tape, anything just to give you feedback as
31
00:01:25.310 --> 00:01:25.860
far as
32
00:01:25.860 --> 00:01:27.540
if you are hitting the ball right in the center.
1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.360

00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:07.780
