just wondered if anyone has tried this. Feel as if they are hitting the ball with an imaginary impact bag in front of it. You almost feel as if you are allowing the club time to compress the ball. You can't actually stop becuase the momentum takes you through the ball. Believe it or not, I kind of got the idea from a putting tip I read. Essentailly you stop the club at your big toe on all putts and vary the distance by how far back you take the club. To me it is easier than same back and same through. So I thought you could extend this idea to a more full swing. Have actually had pretty good results with this. does this make sense? any feedback appreciated.

Re: stopping at the ball
I saw a nice tip in one of the videos someone posted a link to recently. The guy suggested imagining (or even placing a ball when practising) a few inches in front of the proper ball and ensuring you hit both balls in the swing. -

Or focus on a spot 3" in front of the ball, and make sure you mash it.Comment

Re: stopping at the ball
Michael,
A very good visual key. I'll try it at practice tonight. I'm currently working on lag/impact bag.
With regards to your putting drill, wouldn't there be a problem with decelleration?Comment

Re: stopping at the ball
It's probably food for another thread, but, I agree with VP here...
Would have thought varying the length of the backswing and following through to the same spot well through was the better way to vary length when putting....Originally posted by vp27519 View Post
But, freely admit I'm no expert and concede that if it works for you, then more power to ya...
Cheers

Re: stopping at the ball
re: putting - try it a few times. I think you'll find you actually acceleratie. If you look carefully at the pros- in most cases you'll find there is not much follow through.Comment
