Shawn - What are your issues with the Learning Curve/Arc style ala Utley? Is it that, if you just focus on using perpetual momentum, you don't have think either arc or straight-back like Pelz?

I took Pelz's 1-day clinic. Didn't help my putting. Been using Utley's method for a year, and I have more feel, but still ave. 32 putts.

Hey Jon; exactly! As long as your body is in a balanced posture and the arm-club unit is hanging in balance from the shoulders, all you need to do is allow the momentum of your stroke to swing back and through in the direction you want the ball to go; like tossing a soft ball or a horse shoe, which are also tossed on an arc, there is no manipulation required! Simply let the putt go!

Hey Shawn, Great DVDs and videos.

Do you believe in plumb bobbing when reading putts?

[clemshaw]

Hey laceymania! I don't plumb bob as it is not really accurate with the putters most people use; if you want the best ways to find the break, see "the putting zone" with Geoff Mangum; he has developed some fantastic ways to aim the putter, read the greens, and find the right speed for your putts; check out his website and get his e-book; Shawn

Future video idea. Maybe talk about different ball lies. ie. Hitting out of a diviot, 1st cut, 2nd cut etc. How does the lie effect the ball flight etc. Thanks

[clemshaw]

It is on my list! Now I have to get the time...:) This september I should get enough reprieve to get out there and do a couple for you guys!

Hi Shawn, Just listened to your videos this winter. One question I have. Do you have an opinion on which S. Cameron detour putter is most effective. The original (which I believe you have) with the longer tail or the 2 / 2.5 style? Can't find any to look at or try. Would have to buy on line.

Hey Shawn - what are your thoughts on belly putters? My local pro said "it's just easier" (with a belly putter that is).

hey shawn...great videos by the way, but i wanted to know your take on the ideal putting "strike"...i think that the putter should be traveling on a slight UPSLOPE, while the face of the putter is delofted...as in the loft is less than 0 degress...I think this is why Phil stands behind the ball and has a hands foward impact,with ball foward of stance,.. becuase that produces the ideal strike to get the ball rolling foward and on the ground as soon as possible...what do you think?

I like the way you use the frindge to highlight your natural back and through arch..

Hi Shawn,

Thank you for all your help. I find I tend to put better with a heavier putter around 360 gr. Newport style do you have thoughts on putter head weights? You might talk a little about toe hang and face balanced. For those who go out shopping. We but the putter in the store that sinks puts the problem is it sunk puts that day and that day only!

Hey shawn, do you have a general rule of thumb on reading putts?
