Three years ago, my wife was crowned the worlds worst putter by golf organizations world wide....or maybe just by me.
She could line up a putt tree feet from the cup...and STILL four putt.
We tried everything...from training aids, to lessons, to center shafted, heel shafted...mallett...blades...etc All to no avail.
Finally, I made her a Hammy style putter (see below):
And the difference was night and day.....she almost immediately started draining putts 10 feet and more...her accuracy was uncanny.
Also, prior to this, her chipping game was suspect as well...I think looking back, when she got near the green, she was already dreading the putt...and it caused her to lose concentration around the greens.
Bbecause as soon as the putter change was made, her short game improved dramatically.
I would feel comfortable saying that she is the best female putter in our clubhouse...and top 10 in short game.
Friday night, after indoor golf league she tells me she is dumping the Hammy and wants me to make her a Pink Belly Putter. :faintthud
Being married to her long wnough, I can differentiate her voice that says "Even though I made this announcement, it IS subject to change" from the "This is my decision, there will be no backing down".
Her statement was the latter.
I hate seeing her switch...but she had me destroy the Hammy to remove any temptation and force her to practice the Belly...which is now curing in the hot box.
Details of this change forthcoming.....
