A couple of questions/// where are your misses and what is your ball position?


I have my feet about 10 inches apart and the ball about 2 inches inside the left heel. I tend to align about 4 in. to the left for every 10 feet. I have my eyes directly over the ball. In spite of aligning to the left, I will miss putts a bit to the right when I make a bad stroke. I recently switched from a face-balanced mallet to a Scotty Cameron 1.5 so I am starting to release the putter more easily.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
