Putting Skills

Putting is a sequence of four skills — 1) reading or predicting the curve of the ball over the green using smart touch, 2) identifying and then aiming the putter and the body into the start line of the curve for that touch, 3) stroking the ball exactly where aimed, and 4) stroking with the instinctively sized tempo-rhythm that performs the smart touch used to predict the curve to begin with. The skills require understanding how to operate the perception and movement processes of the brain for accurate performance of reading, aiming, stroke, and touch. The PuttingZone program is the result of 35 years of physics and math; applied neuroscience; anatomy; other sciences; over 40,000 hours experimentation and study on putting greens; plus observation, research, and writing. In short, animal brains “do the physics of movements” or the animal dies. Putting perceptions and intentionality for touch and stroke cause the movements for line and pace, and perceptions and intentionality for reading and aiming define the curve and start line and aim. The PuttingZone teaches lethally effective methods and techniques for operating the brain and body by perceptions and intentionality that revolutionize all sports teaching. Most of these techniques are innovations created exclusively in the PuttingZone, such as instinctive reading, simple about-right math and geometry for flat-green start lines, instinctive touch, and many “drills for skills” to learn these skills. These simple methods and techniques are far more effective, accurate, and consistent than the confused ad hoc plethora of tips and drills conventionally taught. And the PuttingZone is the first and still only instruction that teaches SKILLS in golf history. No other instructors even know what a “skill” is or teach the required perceptions and intentionality for the brain processes or physics, or the anatomy for stroke motions operated by brain processes.  If you want to learn putting skills, there is only one choice.
