The Putt is a Golf Stroke demanding maximum Precision and minimum Power. It is all about executing a pre-selected
Hinge Action On Plane and with its proper
Rhythm. Remember, Rhythm in TGM is defined as keeping the Shaft in-line with the Left Forearm, either
visually (actually in line) or
geometrically (frozen in a Bent alignment).
Power should be limited to
One Accumulator -- the
Left Arm (Swinging) or the
Right Arm (Hitting). The remaining Accumulators -- the
Left Wrist (Cocking and Uncocking) and the
Left Hand (Turning and Rolling) -- should be zeroed out. This is done easily by either fully-Uncocking the Left Wrist or by Gripping the Club in the cup of the Left Hand. Either way eliminates both Accumulators. It also puts the Left Forearm On Plane (joining the Right Forearm Flying Wedge that is
always positioned On Plane). Rely on
Clubhead Lag Pressure for Distance Control.
Now, simply
Pull the Club through with your Left Arm or
Push it through with your Right as you execute your precision Hinge Action... On Plane and in its proper Rhythm. As in all Strokes, for the correct Clubhead Lag Pressure Feel, drag (Swinging) or drive (Hitting) your 'wet mop' through Impact. Properly done, there will be no inclination to (1) bend the Left Wrist or flatten the Right; (2) change the pressure point pressure; or (3) slow or stop the Hands through the Ball.
Finally...
Keep your Head still!
