Hi Martin. Iam one of your devoted fans.
Will changing to a larger putter grip help me to keep the face square at impact?

Did we really need to know the ball numbers? This was an obvious Srixon commercial. Pretty sure that just watching a ball move left or right would have been adequate. I understand needing a sponsor, so just call it what it is instead of selling a subliminal commercial

Wow, such great feedback using that drill! Thanks!

Martin - I think you over complicate this drill but let me ask, I do something very similar by putting to a quarter 2-3 feet away, the ball will deflect to the side of the coin in the proper direction if you pull or push the putt. If you center the putt it will roll right over the top. Believe it or not, I got this drill from watching a OLD video tape series the King did back when everyone had those. His goal was to stop the ball on top of the quarter - he never said if or how many times he was successful but I can tell you I have not been able to do that - give it a try and let me know how you do!

Great tip! This really does improve my drives & gives me more power!
