I think this is going to be the right approach for me to start working on. I’ve been trying the straight back approach and make a mess of short putts. Yours is a great explanation of having to manipulate hands to get back to the ball square when attempting that. Thank you sir.
If people would just record themselves it would save a world of time. I mean even looking at the club when you loosely hold it in the hands..and rock back and forth... you can tell it wants to follow an arc. Angles are the most important concept to understand imo! People make it way too complicated ... when they could just sit back... and learn from their body motions via camera...or mirror. Great video. Cheers.
Great explanation Cody! I actually use that same plane board to practice my putting stroke. It works really well to help me groove a swing that has no manipulation with my hands and is much more consistent!
Great vid and explain. It finally clicked for me! To be effective, does the swing plane board need to be adjustable to match the putter angle and stance? Where do you find the board you use?
Great video. I think at least 95% of my strokes are what Cody describes but can definitely sense when my stroke is off and can feel the manipulation to compensate for it.
Fantastic video. I definitely manipulate the putter a bit on the backswing. I'll be looking to practice what he's demonstrated here. I may have to rig myself a putting board. We'll see. 😅
I think I get mixed up trying to force myself into a SBST stroke, I find more success trying to keep the putter square to the plane. Is that pretty much what he's getting at here? Great video, I love all the SeeMore content you're putting out!
Very informative video! I think 🤔 I’m a natural arch like you. Always thought I was a SBST putter. So most of us are naturally small arc putters. Now should I get a Scotty phantom 12 or 12.5? The 12 is face balance whereas 12.5 has a little toe hang for arc putter. They both look good
Which one did you pick? I did a head to head comparison in 2018, between a 2016 Select Newport 2.5 and a 2018 S N 2.5 (both 34") during a Putter Fitting. The 2018 won out for a few reasons, primarily for Set Up and Impact Feel. I walked out of the store with the '18 and I still happily use it.
Great video, but i agree with you and i dont. People who do straight back straight through are often more above the ball. They are leaning over the ball more, which allows you to do a straight back straight through much easier without manipulation. But for someone who isnt leaning over the ball, this is absolutely accurate.
Great video and an excellent analysis. Doesn’t the style of putter make a difference though? For example, I just moved to a face balanced mallet and after initial struggles, realized how much more upright the putter is. As I adjust to the lean of the putter and stand closer to the ball, the pendulum is much more vertical, but, as you suggested, likely still arcs slightly as it moves back and through.
Like all of the rest of the so-called TH-cam experts you miss the main point. The critical thing is that the blade remain PERPENDICULAR to your shown tilted movement plane. Almost no one except touring pros know to do that. In fact is is mandatory. Newer training devices like you show actually incorporate that into their training devices. They block the putter shaft from rotating thus keeping it PERPENDICULAR to the tilted plane. The people who sell "the Putting Arc" sell a clip-on device for the shaft to show the same thing. It stopa the putter shaft from rotating. Without doing that you will always remain a putting hack arc or SBST. Remember. There is a difference between the blade opening and closing RELATIVE TO THE TARGET while on the ARC, and remaining PERPENDICULAR to the tilted plane it moves on. This is where 99.99 percent of the amateurs go wrong. It is why they cannot get the ball started on line consistiently. They rotate it ever so little as you quickly allude to. BUT THAT IS ACTUALLY YOUR MOST IMPORTANT POINT. This is over most people's head Get the Putting Arc's clip on device and redo your video. Then you have the best video out there.
only time that would be key of having to manipulate would be doing a 60 ft putt on a medium speed green. No decent player for a 10 ft putt would take anywhere near that far back
Exactly what I was looking for, great vid, no intro bs just solid information. Much appreciated.
Thats our goal with the entire channel. Real information, real tests.

I have a putting arc and SeeMore putter. I like the taller walls of your plane board, would you know where I could get one of those?
Thanks
Great explanation of a putting stroke!
I don't think I force anything but this really has me interested in finding out what kind of stroke I have.
Where can I buy one of these putting plane boards?
Great video, but i agree with you and i dont.
People who do straight back straight through are often more above the ball. They are leaning over the ball more, which allows you to do a straight back straight through much easier without manipulation. But for someone who isnt leaning over the ball, this is absolutely accurate.
For this kind of stroke would you recommend a face balance or toe hang putter ?
The one being discussed, most likely face balanced. Although a full fitting would best determine how the head is coming through at impact.
Great video and an excellent analysis. Doesn’t the style of putter make a difference though?

Yes it does...To an extent. SBST still from a technical sense doesn't really exist. Arc vs less arc.
After watching that, do you think you manipulate the putter to fit one or the other?

I found that by using a gallon of water in a pail and smoothly rocking my shoulders
in front of a mirror helps me the most.
Str8 back and thru - sneds / stricker / stenson
Good information

Different shafts complement each stroke. The putter in this video isn’t reall a straight back straight through shaft to my understanding
The shaft by itself has little to do with type of stroke.
