I have tried it but I don't really understand what this drill will accomplish. Any further thoughts?

If your aim is faulty, then you manipulate your path constantly. On one side of the hole (right to left) you will miss aim to the left and push the putt in the hole. On the other side of the hole (left to right) you will miss aim to the left and push the ball in the hole. You are now instilling a stroke which bends the plane to the right all the time.

Instead, do as you did when you were a youngster. Play no break, aim dead center, and push the right to lefter in and pull the left to righter in. You are effectively tricking your eyes instead of your eyes tricking you. Slowly, through about 10 five minute sessions, your aim will get better.

When you go to the course play as normal. Don't take this drill to the golf course. If you do.....you will not like me! If you follow the recommended practice.....you will like me!
