First, don't watch much golf at all, but when I do (only Majors on FREE streaming, of course, LOL) am puzzled, actually a bit annoyed watching players going back and forth, stradling the line of put, first facing the hole than turning their backs to the hole and repeating all this for a minute or more.
Does this slow down the POP and even contribute to damaging the greens with all this straddling BACK AND FORTH ?
And FWIW, yesterday at Braeben, tried it for few holes and it is probably just me, but NO WAY I COULD DETERMINE the slope even on a pretty sloped greens, for which, Braeben is "famous" for, never mind for the puts that break just couple of inches, LOL.
How about u, anyone using it and benefitting from it ???
Cheers
...just watching Scottish Open and some players spending at least a minute repeating this procedure, first facing the hole than facing away from the hole and then repeating it to infinitum on a meager 6' pretty straight put to boot, and missing the hole by quite a bit - give me a break Even the commentator, in a polite, but so funny way at the same time, questioned the "value" of this thing, LOL.
...don't think you'll ever see John Daly doing this
