Clay,
Why is it that I continue to hit the ball to the right (sometimes hard right) when going through the sequence that you just described? What would be a common symptom that causes the ball to shoot to the right? If I'm catching the toe is that b/c of an out/in swing path? TY

Thank you for that tip !

That was good - really, really good. Cannot wait to try all the adjustments mentioned by CB.

Does your dominant eye determine if you line up behind or in front and inside or outside of the ball? I am left eye dominant but am right handed...or will I just have to play with it until it works.

Can't wait to give this drill a try. Thought I've seen all the tips around putting but not this one.

What if you are left hand low? Would this drill still apply, specifically the right shoulder tilt? Thanks

How does the flop shot work from the bunker?

G'day Clay, I have found with face-balanced putters getting the eyes over the ball is useful. The other thing I do is close my left eye, then rotate my head so I look along the line with my dominant eye. Toe weighted putters may be different.
