Spinthrift said:Any added motion in your putting routine and stroke introduces variables that affect consistency. Simpler is always better. Interestingly, one of the best putters ever, Cam Todd, says the weight shift on a putt shouldn't go back then forward. Rather, the shift should be down and up - a squat with knees bent - ending with weight on the front leg. It's feels weird at first, but I've found this shift generates as much momentum as back/forward with less arm motion needed (removing another variable).

never thought about it this way. Cam Todd is/was a phenomenal putter. I may have to try this.

I tried it today at work and yes my mind, it was blown.
