Putting stroke in Golf

Reviewer Short and to the point, and it's genuinely good advice.

Moderator A core stroke-mechanics principle from a top-tier coach - keep the same tempo regardless of putt length and vary the stroke length instead. Squarely on topic.

Reviewer Corrects a real misconception and backs it up with a usable drill -- excellent.

Moderator Directly and entirely about putting stroke mechanics -- what should move (upper spine rotation, wrist softening), what shouldn't (lower body, head), and why.

Reviewer Efficient, accurate, and gives you a drill you can set up in two minutes.

Moderator Squarely about putter path and face relationship in the stroke -- exactly the named skill.

Reviewer Real coaching detail here - the elbow-and-hand relationship, plus a mirror drill to actually train it.

Moderator This is entirely about putting stroke mechanics - specifically how the hands and elbows should move together to create the arc at the bottom of the stroke. No tangents, no product talk, all technique.

Reviewer 36% back, 64% through — has the tour data to back it up and a drill to feel it. Kills the 'even pendulum' myth for good reason.

Moderator Entirely about stroke tempo and the back-to-through ratio — textbook on-topic, backed by actual SAM PuttLab tour data.

Reviewer A coach openly correcting his own old advice, backed by data -- that's rare and worth trusting.

Moderator Entirely about the putting stroke -- specifically the accelerate-vs-coast myth at impact.

Reviewer Both drills are genuinely useful, and the wrist-action point pushes back on outdated advice with real reasoning.

Moderator Two drills, both squarely stroke mechanics -- strike quality and putter release/feel.

Reviewer The most detail-dense lesson in this batch - real fixes for real, common faults.

Moderator Entirely dedicated to hand position and grip mechanics in the stroke - where the hands hang, how they check shoulder alignment, where the grip sits in the hand, grip pressure. On topic throughout.

Moderator Squarely about building the stroke itself - minimizing hand manipulation, generating movement from the body instead, with two specific drills to isolate that feeling.

Reviewer Clear reasoning and drills that actually target the two most common faults.

Reviewer Explains the mechanism, not just the tip -- and gives you a way to self-check it.

Moderator Two specific putting stroke mechanics (hand height for face control, starting back with the heel) -- squarely about the stroke.

Reviewer Accurate detail on three real alternative grips, plus the right advice to get fitted.

Moderator Fully on-topic - covers three legitimate, named alternative putting grip and stroke methods (cross-hand or left-hand-low, claw, arm-lock) specifically for left-side-dominant putting strokes. This is putting stroke technique through and through.

Moderator A drill for putting with the shoulders and chest instead of flicking the hands: an alignment stick held in the back of the putter with its top touching your chest or belly button, keeping stick and shaft aligned through the stroke. Squarely on the putting stroke.

Reviewer Excellent drill: you know the moment your hands flick, and the explanation of what to watch for is spot on.

Moderator Real diagnostic coaching on stroke path and face control - using tee gates and 'marbles' to show exactly how losing your axis point shows up as a specific miss. Squarely on topic and genuinely technical.

Reviewer Sharp diagnostic coaching, if a little hard to follow as a straight lesson.

Moderator Three specific drills on setup and stroke mechanics - forearm/shaft alignment, grip effects on the wrists, and a towel drill for a passive-hands, body-driven stroke.

Reviewer Solid technical detail, especially the towel drill for feeling where the motion should come from.

Reviewer The ball-position eye-drop trick alone is worth the watch — simple, and you can check yourself with it.

Moderator Grip, stance, elbow position, ball position — this is putting stroke fundamentals from the ground up, exactly what the skill tag calls for.

Reviewer Solves a specific real problem with three concrete options, not just one generic fix.

Moderator Three specific named techniques (forward press, hover, tap) for initiating the putting stroke smoothly -- squarely about stroke mechanics.

Reviewer Clear cause-and-effect on why a bad grip actually costs you putts, not just 'this looks wrong.'

Moderator Single focused topic -- putter grip and its effect on face angle at address -- all putting stroke.

Reviewer Same strong two-principle lesson, same minor channel-plug padding.

Moderator Same content and delivery as the other Bazalgette upload in this batch - origin of motion from the core, constant putter-to-body distance. On topic throughout.

Reviewer Two solid, well-explained fundamentals - light on the padding, heavy on substance.

Moderator Entire video is two core putting-stroke principles - where the motion originates, and keeping club-to-body distance constant. On topic throughout, with some channel self-promotion around the edges.

Reviewer Specific fix for a wobbling putter head, a palms-up setup and a two-club drill you can try on the carpet tonight.

Moderator Putting-stroke connection: tuck the elbows so arms and body move as one unit, with a palms-up/palms-over setup and a two-club drill to feel the rocking motion. Directly about the putting stroke.

Reviewer Deep detail, but you'll want the video for the hand mechanics -- words alone are a stretch.

Moderator A specific named stroke technique (piston stroke, left/right hand role split) -- squarely about stroke mechanics, quite technical.

Reviewer Real coaching, not a script — shows you how to read your own tendencies instead of copying a textbook stroke.

Moderator This is a real lesson zeroed in on putting stroke setup — eye line, distance from ball, how that changes the arc. Every minute is about the stroke, nothing generic.

Reviewer Solid, specific grip fix -- just skip past the subscribe/comment asks.

Moderator Entirely about putter grip as the foundation of the stroke -- on topic throughout.

Reviewer Good mechanism-based explanation and a real drill, just wade through the plugs.

Moderator Fully dedicated to stroke path - challenges the straight-back-straight-through idea, explains the alternative, gives a drill. On topic throughout despite some plugs for his book and a training aid.

Reviewer Simple, useful experiment from a top-tier source - light on detail.

Moderator Entirely a stroke-style drill - wristy vs. stiff-wristed vs. blended, with tour-player reference points for each. On topic throughout, short and to the point.

Reviewer Short, but it's a legit tour secret from one of the best putters ever — worth the 60 seconds.

Moderator Single, specific tip about the backswing/follow-through length ratio — squarely stroke mechanics, just very short.

Reviewer Less about hot tips, more about how to actually diagnose your own miss pattern — start line, then speed, then reading. Useful process.

Moderator Real 1-on-1 lesson breaking down what actually controls start line — face angle, body alignment — with a circle drill to test it. Squarely stroke-mechanics.

Reviewer Ignore the title, the ladder drill and the coasting-through-impact point are both genuinely good.

Moderator Pace/tempo and the coasting-through-impact point are both stroke mechanics; it doesn't touch grip or face control, so it's a slice of the stroke rather than the whole thing.

Reviewer Good single idea, well shown - just know it's a piece of a bigger lesson, not the whole thing.

Moderator Squarely about what should physically move in the putting stroke - the sternum drives the shoulder pendulum while everything else stays quiet. On topic, just a short clip.

Reviewer Good foundation for new golfers: tucked elbows, eyes over the ball, rock the shoulders; the tee drill is a nice add.

Moderator Putting stroke fundamentals for newer golfers: elbows tucked under the ribcage, hands together, lean forward with eyes over the ball, then a rocking action from the shoulders with hips, knees and legs still, the same rock for a short or long putt. The caption adds a stroke-length drill using tees: a 3-foot putt takes about four inches back and through. Squarely on the putting stroke.

Moderator Three ways to feel your arms and body working together in the putting stroke: alignment sticks crossed under the armpits, a towel under the arms, and a no-putter hands-together posture drill. Squarely on stroke connection.

Reviewer Three practical ways to feel arms and body moving as one, each in a sentence or two. Easy to try tonight.

Reviewer Clear, correct explanations of what each grip actually changes.

Moderator A clear survey of putting grips - standard, reverse overlap, prayer, claw - and how each one actually changes the stroke. Grip is foundational to the stroke, so this is squarely relevant.

Reviewer Concrete, repeatable drills from someone who's played at a high level.

Moderator A mix of real stroke-mechanics work (the gate drill for a center strike) and practice drills for speed and focus. Squarely within putting, if broader than pure stroke motion.

Moderator Michael Breed on wrist control in the putting stroke: keep the wrists quiet, and a forward press is fine as long as you hold that setup (a little bend in the trail wrist, a little bow in the lead) through the stroke, which gives consistent putterhead speed, loft delivery and ball speed, the basis of distance control. Squarely on putting stroke mechanics.

Reviewer Clear principle with the reason behind it: quiet wrists mean consistent speed and loft, which means distance control. A drill would have made it better.

Reviewer Shows you exactly what a good roll looks like, though it's light on how to build that stroke.

Moderator Squarely about putting stroke quality - specifically center-face contact and the resulting end-over-end roll versus a wobbly roll from an off-center hit or a stabbing motion. This is a core stroke-quality concept, not a tangent.

Moderator How to start the putting stroke: two triggers, a small forward press (forward shaft lean) or a hover-and-tap, so the handle stays quiet and the putter head swings freely for a clean end-over-end roll. Squarely a putting-stroke video, though it focuses on starting the stroke rather than the whole motion.

Reviewer Two practical ways to start the stroke (forward press or tap) with a clear reason why: it frees the putter head and keeps the handle quiet. Doesn't cover path, face or tempo.

Moderator Explains why trying to move the putter dead straight back and through is a mistake, with an alignment-rod awareness drill where the putter toe stays against the rod. About stroke path, squarely on the putting stroke.

Reviewer Memorable awareness drill that shows why straight-back-straight-through feels wrong. It's the what-not-to-do half, and the fix is left for later.

Reviewer Solid fix for the yips-adjacent jab stroke, though you'll sit through some channel plugging to get it.

Moderator Shoulder-driven stroke vs. jabby hands, holding the finish, eye position — squarely stroke mechanics, just a bit padded with channel promo.

Reviewer Great framework for figuring out what to actually practice instead of just hitting putts at random.

Moderator Strike and start line are pure stroke mechanics, pace is a direct product of the stroke, but green reading -- one of the four 'skills' -- isn't stroke at all, so this is a broader putting framework rather than a stroke-only lesson.

Moderator Covers the specific stroke mechanics for a broomstick/long putter - anchoring, the arm staying in a fixed 'pane', letting the shoulders and club weight do the work. A real, if narrower, putting-stroke topic.

Reviewer A useful overview, though it stops short of a full lesson.

Moderator A quick coaching exchange on the putting stroke: treat the putt as an arms-only back-and-forth, keep the head still, no weight shift, weight 50-50 on the feet. Squarely about the stroke.

Reviewer Sound fundamentals (still head, 50-50 weight, no lunging), but it stops right before it explains why.

Reviewer Handy test, but it tells you what you have, not what to do about it.

Moderator The entire clip is a self-test for identifying your stroke type (straight vs. arc) using alignment sticks. On topic, just diagnostic rather than instructional about the stroke itself.

Reviewer Good grip-stability tip buried in a pretty muddled, repetitive explanation.

Moderator Covers two related things - identifying putter type (face-balanced vs toe-hang, which maps to straight-back vs arc stroke) and then a grip technique to stabilize the putter face through the stroke. Both are legitimately part of putting stroke technique, even though it opens with an equipment-diagnosis detour.

Moderator A putting lesson clip about keeping the arms connected and the wrists quiet: a foam ball pinned against the arm gives pressure feedback (the pressure should stay constant, and flicking the putter head makes it spike), with shaft lean set at address rather than a forward press, plus a before-and-after comparison showing drifty arms becoming connected. On the putting stroke, from the middle of a coaching session.

Reviewer Good feedback drill for connected arms and quiet wrists, but it's cut from the middle of a lesson, so you'll have to work out the setup yourself.

Moderator A player walks through a putting warm-up: a mirror and string line to check aim and eye position, a slight inside arc, then a spiral drill from 3 to 8 feet before heading to the range. More about putting practice and setup checks than stroke mechanics.

Reviewer Useful practice structure: mirror for eye line, hole everything from 3 to 8 feet before moving on. Some of it is personal preference.

Reviewer Accurate but shallow -- a list of tips, not a lesson.

Moderator Every tip listed is a putting stroke tip -- alignment aids, eye position, stability, ball position.

Reviewer Good practical advice, especially on reading break and course management.

Moderator This is mostly about putting strategy and mindset - reading break, practice structure, avoiding negative self-talk - rather than the stroke motion itself, though it's all still squarely part of putting.

Reviewer The stability drill is worth stealing; just know it's only half the video.

Moderator The strike/stability section is squarely putting stroke, but the video pivots into green reading partway through, which is a different skill from stroke mechanics.

Reviewer Decent tip on keeping your eyes on the target instead of babysitting the ball, but you have to dig for it.

Moderator More about visual focus/target awareness and routine consistency than the physical stroke itself — head movement gets a mention, putter path gets a mention, but most of the airtime is 'look at the target, not the ball' mental work. Adjacent to stroke, not squarely it.

Moderator A player's putting practice setup: string line and mirror to check eye position and aim, athletic posture with hands hanging to find grip position, then lag-speed work from 15 to 25 feet. Mostly setup and practice approach with little on stroke mechanics.

Reviewer Sensible: same eye position every time, hands hanging naturally, lag speed over short putts. The 'perfect putting stroke' title oversells it.

Reviewer Genuinely advanced-level insight from a top coach, just not really about the stroke itself — more about where you point your focus.

Moderator David Orr's real expertise here, but 'target preferences' is a visualization/aim skill, not the stroke mechanic itself — plus a chunk of this is a plug for the golf school and online community. Tangential to 'putting stroke' specifically.
