Brandt Snedeker: Putting Made Easy

Rolling that little white ball into that little white hole isn't as hard as you think. The trick is to strike the ball in the same place with the center of the putterface every time. I do it with a pop-style stroke, an old technique that's helped me

I never leave comments on videos but this time I have to. this changed my putting immediately from the first put, I started dropping the ball in the hole like I knew what I was doing, long, short, breaking whatever it just went in, if it missed it was by centimeters. I never had any lesson or tip that delivered what it promised right from get go like this. THANK YOU

Tried this method and holed a lot of putts and was tapping in the rest, great video and a keeper technique.

Brandt, I just tried your putting stroke for 18 and I was amazed! Thank you. You are now my favorite Pro Golfer!

Putting is so personal. There are hundreds of people telling you how to do it but this is one of the better ones. Learn from your own experience.

I like the brisk nature of everything Brandt does. If you watch his full swing, he shuffles into position, takes a look at his target and then goes. A lot of amateurs could benefit from this approach-- less thinking, less chance you'll get stuck over a putt, pitch, or full swing.

I have been putting with one hand for a while and had good success but then I would start to doubt it. Now I realize that I was doing the pop stroke with the one hand. Brandt showed that one hand practice at the end of this video. Now I understand that what I like about the one hand stroke is the feel and the pop. Now I will try and integrate my left hand and make same stroke. But I will continue to practice some with the one hand as I do have great feel for putting that way. Thanks Brandt. Nashville rocks. Win a major in 2019!

I’ve been practicing this technique. I have to admit, there really may be something to this. Everything he said is what I’ve been experiencing. The ball rolls so true and straight.

Super Tip!!! It really makes putting so much more easy. I wish I would have done this 30 years ago!

[cliffdiver]

Impressive, most impressive, and he blows the modern approach to putting out of the water, cheers.

[mikefixac]

Thanks Brandt. You're a good guy. Now go out there and get that 1st major. Thanks for the tip.

[BEBETTERGOLF]

I have been to a few PGA tour events in the last few years and this guy practice's putting a lot!!! He really takes pride in it

[brucedong]

Thank you, this is great for us "muni" players, who have to deal with foot prints and volcano holes.

[kevinhiggler]

Past month, been putting 31 putt's per round, with this pop stroke, good for me. Compared to 38 strokes. Distance is better. Thanks for the tips Brandt.

the trick is learning the feel of pressure in the left hand I love it for my age 67 very short stroke and can hit it 70 feet easily once you get the PRESSURE feeling

[gmoney]

Tried this today and there was a dramatic improvement, will def use this from now on.!

Been struggling with my putting saw this video putting was so much better great help

[TeddyCavachon]

The significant difference between putting and all other golf shots is the direction the ball spins: top spin with putts and backspin with all the others. With Driver, irons and wedges using the left arm as the lever arm rotating around the left shoulder creates the ideal biomechanics to create a downward strike on the ball which if on the ground will compress it into the turf, spin it up the face to the degree the loft of the club allows with irons and wedges ( desirable for creating spin lift). But in the putting stoke an upward strike creates the ideal biomechanics and the back right arm with rotation around a stable right shoulder joint being the more effective technique as employed by Brandt and no doubt one of the reasons he puts so well.

I love the way this guy putts, works better for me than the slow deliberate back and through the ball method.

[johndaws]

brilliant - and getting some feel back into the putt- it's surely more natural this way

[pjackowspa]

This putting stroke is better suited to the average, amateur player because they rely more on feel and natural hand eye coordination.
You only develop feel in the modern putting stroke through the practice and repetition that only tour pros and top amateurs can give.
I’ve switched to the pop stroke after watching Gary Player on the putting green at ST Andrews this year and my putting has improved immensely
