Conclusion
Putting is the most challenging part of golf. It makes all the difference in the world as far as your score is concerned.
To me, it is also the best part of my game. I rarely miss a putt inside of five feet, and I make more than my share in the 5 to 10 foot range. I have many days when I don't miss at all inside of ten feet.
I am not telling you that to brag about my putting. I am just illustrating what a chronic yipper that can't make a three footer to save their life can achieve if they forget about making a stroke and start looking at the things that will help them make putts. I was once that chronic yipper.
Almost all putting instruction I see is pure BS. Putting is not a science. It is a game. More specifically, it is a target game. Focusing on technique will never help you get better as a putter. If you want to work on your stroke, do it on the practice green.
And if you want to make more putts on the course forget about making a good stroke.
Good putting doesn't take a good stroke. It takes a stroke that consistently hits the ball on the correct line at the correct speed. And I have seen some pretty shaky looking strokes that made a lot of putts.
I have given some valuable insight that will help you putt better because it will remove your mind from the physical stroke and focus on what is really important. Line and speed.
If you would like to learn how to apply the fundamentals of every other target game to your putting so hitting the ball on line will be as instinctive as throwing a ball, I recommend you look at Target Putting. You can do that right now by clicking on the book cover below.
It will change the way you look at putting and make you a significantly better putter within about 15 minutes.

I purchased these to have something more forgiving since I was playing Ping I3 blades. Since I don't play as often I decided to buy something that would dampen mishit. I have a personal driving range and I found that my swing fault followed me, go figure :) Anyway, my 1st round was a disaster, but it wasn't the clubs. After the disaster I practiced all week with them, along with a major revision in my setup and shot 73 in my second round with them. So, they were redeemed. One thing I've noticed is that the offset is hidden well in the design of the club. I have never cared for offset, but it's almost invisible in this club. They feel really good in my hands and the thicker sole from the Ping's now seem normal.
