Dave Stockton Putting Tips *Read description below ⬇️ ⬇️ for more...

Dave Stockton is a huge promoter of the forward press, a slight move forward with the hands, once the putter face has addressed the ball. This de-lofts the putter face just a bit, most putters come with 4 degrees of loft. * * * Dave's putter has 7 degrees of loft! If you have ever tried using a forward press, you may notice that you tend to hit more solid putts when using it. It just seems as though you are far less likely to blade putts off the bottom of the putter face. If you are addressing the putt correctly and keeping the back of the left hand aimed at the target, it may not be necessary. Many of Stockton’s students do not use it, this is because they are addressing the ball correctly each time. Try it out for yourself and see if it works for you. Mickelson is a notorious forward presser and it hasn’t worked out very well for him in recent years. You want to make the ball roll as soon as possible, OK? If I take a club with no loft, my hands have to sit back. If I forward press, (the putter) is going to press into the ground and (the ball will) bounce. So I need some kind of loft, to keep my hands ahead. Matt Kuchar had a putter with 2.5° loft and now he’s close to 7°, if not more. Loft is the key. If your hands are back, you have to manipulate them to get the ball to roll sooner. You’re making it a stroke dominated by your right hand. That fits a lot of people, but it sure doesn’t fit me. Your left is the hand that will guide you to the target. There are two shots you lead with your left – the low chip and the putt. On those shots you can’t break down the left hand. The average person lets their left wrist break down and they wonder why they can’t putt.
