great advice

This is great advice. I use this in ALL shots, including putting. I would add: this intermediate target should be as close to the ball as you can get it. It's always easier to aim at a blade of grass within 6 inches of the ball, rather than at a hole that's 40 feet away.

Seemingly, the better putters aim precisely and use a close intermediate target. The worst putters aim in a general area that's too far away from the ball.

Looks like an interesting fitting system---too bad it's mostly west coast locations. Guess I'll continue to base my putter selection on feel.

Don't rely on feel...she will lie to you just to get in your pockets...Just because she looks good and feeels good doesn't mean she's someone you should be married to....I had a Napa by Scotty Cameron... given to me by PGA Tour Player, Neal Lancaster...beautiful putter..best feeling of all of them...from 6 ft on a laser I aimed approx. 2 cups to the left then proceded to ruin my stroke by downstroke loading and blocking them right into the hole occasionally....now putting with a "Fax Day"...Circle T..Not hte purttiest girl at the dance ....feels good in my arms and I can split her in the middle!!! with a laser ..she's lookin where I'm lookin!! So it's not a sale for edelgolf..just the best putter fitting you can get!!!!!No matter what the brand!!!!

Sounds real good(Edel)!!!

Mike Shannon does something similar, but this sounds very good.

If the putter is actually aimed where you think it is... you have a better chance.
