Dave Pelz helps you with your lag putting

[jaxfl2]

Dave. That's good if you always play on greens with the same green speed. But, amateurs play on greens with a wide variety of green speeds, anywhere from 5 to 12. My drills take the green speed into account. Also, you need to factor in the rise or fall of the putt. These things can be calculated and then translated into backstroke length. The stroke length then controls how far the ball goes.

@jaxfl2 are you really challenging dave pelz?

[jaxfl2]

@micmayorga Thanks for the question. I'm sure Dave has a lot more to say about lag putt drills than is shown in the video. I'm "respectfully" adding to Dave's lesson. My main point is that you can control distance by relating backstroke length to the force required for the putt. Using a "Lag Master" you can take all the practical factors you will face on your round into account; distance, rise, fall, green speed and grain. I've done very well in putting tournaments with this idea.

@jaxfl2 Where can I buy your book on putting? I have Dave's, I just want to compare the one you've written.

[jaxfl2]

@bwreynolds72 My book has not yet been published. No one would buy it. I'm not famous like Dave - yet. Once I demonstrate that my research and methods produce superior putters and win tournaments I'll sell you my first copy. Come to the Golf Hall of Fame Putting Championships in the Spring and I'll sell you a first-edition autographed copy ;-)
