As someone who has struggled with the yips, I have had some success in focusing on a spot 6 inches in front of the ball, and seeing the putter head come to a stop over that spot and then holding the finish (as per Martin's suggestion). Has anyone else tried this? Thanks

I've tired this drill and my putting has improved greatly. Easy to implement and works!!

I don’t know why you have the words on the bottom of the screen sometimes you can’t see what he is actually doing. Maybe you should put the words on the top of the screen

I have been doing this for a couple of months. The only problem I have with it is that when I move up to the ball, I sometimes end up on a different line. I now set up to the ball and then pull the putter between my toes and the ball. I take my practice swing there and then slide the putter back behind the ball. I no longer change my target line. Is there a reason to not do this?

I believe this will help me since I have a tendency to lean forward afterwards, almost chasing the ball. Thank you Mr. Hall and have a great week!
