Float loading is very hard to control pace on fast greens.

Embarrassed to admit it, but I suspect my carpet has a higher Stimp than our greens But I can certainly see your point, actually that is the thing that has me worried about the stroke. Unfortunately the pop is intoxicating.

Are you saying that Inman used float loading in his putting stroke?

The likes of Palmer, Nicklaus and Player all had distinct hand action, but in those days they putted on much slower greens (around 7?) and that is sort of average here in Sweden (just ask Amen Corner). What was the speed at Augusta when Inman played?
