Needs some clarity. It's more than just pre-shot. This can
shave strokes immediatly for anyone who is not taking an organized approach to putting:
Once ready to step up to the ball, the only directional thought I have is to look at a spot 3-4 inches in front of the ball on my predetermined target line to which I set up square. Once set up square to the target line,
I eliminate direction from my thinking completely and focus on nothing but speed and swing. This makes the whole process of pulling the trigger sooooo much easier. Nothing but speed while swinging and you'll save a bunch of strokes. And when you do get into trouble? You've got a well organized system to help you get back on track with.quickly.
