I play left handed. If I understood you correctly, I should play hook putts off the toe and slice putts off the heel.

I enjoy downhill pace putts! This makes me enjoy practicing them more!

Thank you I did not know about the heel on a left to right but for years I have used the toe and it does work just as you said

Thanks for the great tip from someone who us struggling with weak contact with my irons. can't wait to try this at the range.

Like the tip. Think it would be helpful to show a down hill putt and how hitting off the toe or heel actually helps. Picture is worth a thousand words.

Would heel and toe be opposite for left hand golfers?
