The best way to read a putt is to be low to the ground, then surely putting with eyes just over the ball would give you the best chances? Is it illegal to use the putter like a pool cue? This would be hard to get the right power over long distances, but for the dreaded short putts could be useful. It would prove a laughing point to the group behind, but could subtract one or two shots.
