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 />
