Send us Fan Mail

We sit down with putting coach Bruce Rarick to make putting simpler by matching your setup and equipment to your natural motion instead of forcing a textbook stroke. We dig into nine putting profiles, why vision and ball position drive your roll, and how modern fitting and marketing can push golfers into the wrong putter.
• nine distinct putting profiles based on arc direction and arc size
• tilted arcs that still deliver a zero path at impact
• ball position set by eye location rather than feet
• why eye dominance influences head tilt and aim
• letting the player be the player instead of “correcting” everything
• putter design details that change strike including lie angle and sole shape
• blade vs mallet tradeoffs and the reality of mallet kick
• how weight and balance affect speed control and motion
• myths around forced eye position, minimal arc, grip rules, and “more forgiving”
• the line on the ball drill to test roll and centered contact
• practice that protects movement patterns while fixing setup and sequence
• launch, skid, and adapting to slow or wet greens
• why lab numbers on carpet do not equal real world fitting
• building rhythm, walking putts, and staying out of your head
