Lagster,

The sad thing about golf instruction, especially putting instruction, is you can read ten books and come up with ten different thought processes.

THat is the great thing about TGM. There are no holes. Some might think there are holes but they haven't read enough.

NOW TO THE POINT. Most putting instrutors don't know what the hell they are talking about when it comes to alignment. Mike Shannon, Geoff Mangum, and Tony Sills all teach it very, very well. THey all have different aspects but the basics are the same. None of these guys teach it the way most instructors teach it. Alignment and using the eyes is not something that just POPS OUT OF NOWHERE. It is very similar to learning and utilizing different hinges. First you look, look, look, and then you learn the differences in feel, and finally you just think ANGLED HINGE, and it happens.

Take a piece of electrical tape 5 feet in length and stick it to the floor in your house somewhere the wife will not move it. Everyday for a month set up to the tape with your putter and walk your eyes down it (toward the hole) and back to the putter face. IT MUST TAKE AT LEAST THIRTY SECONDS. Now read all your practice putts for the next month. After thirty days you will know if you are linear or non linear.
