A couple weeks ago I "threw away" my old putting stroke and grip in frustration at my inconsistency and went to the left hand low grip (ala Padraig). The initial results were promising, even with the erratic distance control due to the strange feeling grip. Last Sunday I shot a 91 for 18 but only had one 3-putt. I was leaving myself some 5-6 foot second putts due to still getting a feel for the distance but was making them. Last night I absolutely putted lights out. I started out pretty good with the other clubs (driver was solid all day) but finished poorly with my fairway accuracy. But I had only one 3-putt (very nasty pin placement on side of hill) and made a couple beautiful long ones. Everything inside of 7 feet (other then the one hole) was made. And on the last hole after putting two fairway shots into two seperate ponds, missing the green, dubbing a chip into a sand trap and hitting the sand shot on but 20 feet away, I made the 20 footer to salvage a snowman... ( 
). In other words most of my game sucked except my putting and I still shot a 48 for 9. 14 putts for 9 holes. And this is still not yet feeling comfortable. Anyone having putting issues should at least give this an experimental try. It takes the problem of breaking wrists right out of the stroke.
(Score sucked because of bad bounces, rotten directional control on fairway shots and bad chipping. Not a very good round at all. Got a par on a par 5, hitting a hybrid on the third shot 200 yards on the green after hitting driver into a sand trap in the middle of the fairway 250 yards out and ball under the lip forcing a 50 yard second shot to get out. Last hole was a nasty par 5 with a pond on the left and another on the right and a tree in the mix also.)
