2.8 Putter Path - Side View<br />

This graph shows a horizontal side view of the putter path during back<br />

swing (dotted lines) and forward swing (solid lines). The different putts are<br />

indicated by different colors, with the first putt at the top.<br />

The small black point/ball represents the starting point of the movement.<br />

The putter is slightly lifted at the beginning of the backswing and is then<br />

moving to the right. Backswing in Tour players is generally flat which allows<br />

the forward swing to come up through impact.<br />

For this player the forward swing path is leading 2.2 degrees upwards<br />

through the ball. The putter path curves run very parallel. The third putt is a<br />

little bit pulled up at end of forward swing. Again a shorter backswing and a<br />

longer follow through can be seen. More explanations on consistency of the<br />

putter path length are found in chapter 2.5.<br />
