Everyone flinches. Most people never see it.
The short putt you keep missing.
Prop your phone up, hole out from two to six feet, and find out what your stroke does when the putt actually matters.
How it works
-
Set the phone up
Face on, about two metres away, level with your hands. The app checks you are in shot before you hit anything.
-
Hole out from two to six feet
One recording, five or six putts. Putt as you normally would, not as you think you should.
-
Tap where each one finished
One tap per putt on a target. That gives a miss map, and it is the only way the app can tell an aiming fault from a stroke fault.
-
Practise the one thing that is costing you
Two or three drills, all of them inside six feet. Come back, film it again, and the app checks whether the drill actually worked.
Why short putts
Set the phone up
How far are you putting from?
Six putts, one recording
Reading the clip
Where did they finish?
Tap the spot for each putt. Tap the hole itself if it dropped. This is the only way the app can separate an aiming fault from a stroke fault.
