Hand Putter
Hand Putter

Fitting a big grip to your putter is a quick way to improve your putting without taking a lesson.

Tilt forward from the hips and let your arms hang naturally under your shoulders. You will notice that the palms of your hands are level with each other. This is how your body balances itself without interference.

This is also how you should place your hands on your putter – the best anatomical fit, so to speak. Up until now this side-by-side position has not been possible as the circumference of the standard putter grip is too narrow. There is not enough bulk in the grip to comfortably accommodate your hands.

In putting you want your hands to be neutral – ideally not involved in your putting stroke at all. The age of using your wrists has given way to using your shoulders as the means to power the stroke. This has come about as a result of smoother and faster green surfaces.

However, each of us has a dominant hand. In the case of most people, it is the right hand. By placing your right hand below your left on your putter, you are promoting this dominance.

Your right hand is controlled by the left or analytical side of our brain when you really want to be using the right or creative side of your brain when you putt. You certainly don’t want to be thinking when you are over the ball.

As a counter-measure some golfers have taken to using a left hand low position. Others have adopted a claw grip which in effect takes the right hand out of play. These are only partial solutions and ignore the even simpler solution of arranging your hands on the grip in a prayer-like fashion.

Another advantage of this neutral positioning of your hands is that it automatically brings your shoulders in line. The standard reverse-overlap grip has a tendency to bring your right shoulder forward changing your parallel alignment to your aimline. You can correct this, but it is just another thing to remember.

The problem with the big grip has always been its weight. The standard grip weighs around 60 grams, but the big grip has been well over the 150 grams. This has thrown out the swingweight of the putter and changed the feel of the putter head. Of course, you can add back weight to the putter head, but this increases the overall weight of the putter.

Putting with a different swingweight is not insurmountable as K.J. Choi has shown us. But now at last there is a ‘BigLite’ putter grip on the market that is only marginally heavier than the standard grip.

There is no excuse to grip your putter in a sub-optimal way. The only negative to the big grip is that it does not fit into the putter tube on your golf bag. Get to it. It may feel strange in the beginning and you will hear the skeptical comments that it takes away the feel. Baloney.

To paraphrase the words of the song by Queen ‘You can have it All, and You can have it Now’.

Neville Walker has a passion for golf and has played golf on hundreds of golf courses all over the world. His particular interest is writing about how to improve your putting. He runs a web site on the subject which can be found at http://www.better-golf-by-putting-better.com

Do you use a forward press with the new Odyssey Sabertooth putter?

I normally play with a forward press of my hands with my Ping Redwood. The Odyssey Sabertooth sits alot different and when I forward press the loft is completely gone.

I play the ball about three balls forward of center with this putter.

When I let the putter stand naturally (without a forward press) and I address the ball, the ball is extremely forward of center and my right hand seems to push the putter more. I’m not sure if this is good or not as I’m still playing with the setup.

Regardless of the odd look of forward pressing and getting rid of the loft, this new putter is deadly for alignment and its getting harder for me to go back to my favorite putter the Ping Redwood Anser blade putter.

Has anybody tried it yet and does anybody use a forward press?

Pressing forward is usually a technique that is used to deloft the putter, which is what it does with the odyssey as well. What you might be noticing in that the ping has more loft than the odyssey, and when you press it forward, your eyes like the loft created. but when you press the odyssey, you deloft too much and you dislike this. However, if you really like the alignment factor, which is a main selling point of the odysseys, the loft can be made to fit your eyes as well. You can do one of two things…
1.) You can keep practicing with the odyssey, experimenting with pressing distance, ball position, and other things for awhile.
or..
2) you can take the easier way out, bring the putter into a custom fitting place, have them analyze your putts, and have them bend the putter to your exact specs…This is a bit expensive, but for putting it is worth it…

I hope this helps you man, I really like the Redwoods, they are pretty rare. You should keep it just in case you end up not liking the odyssey. Putting is all about confidence and feel. Get used to the odyssey, and then make a decision…
