Forearm Alignment in Putting

In my opinion, when it comes to putting, the alignment of the shaft and the forearms is one of the most important fundamentals to a consistent putting stroke. In this video, I discuss how to achieve that alignment with the proper grip that neutralizes the hands in the putting stroke. With this stroke and grip, the right hand has far less tendency to get "yippy" and avoid pulled putts and poor speed.

Note in the two screen captures from the video below the alignment of the shaft and forearm and the "V's" formed by the thumb and index finger on each hand. This grip allows for the forearms and shaft to be in perfect alignment throughout the stroke and minimizes the use of the flinchy muscles in the hands.

Note that this is also discussed in our Short Game DVD in the putting section.
