100% on this video. The KEY is getting on a roll board or in front of slow motion video to see how YOU personally deliver the club at impact because the static loft is nothing more than a starting point as well deliver differently. Another thing of note is ball position. Finding out where you put the ball in your stance and doing it consistently is key to maintaining good effective loft. Great video!

Trottie, you have done it again ... Have the spider been struggling lately like at the weekend 6 X 3 putts !! Last night played few holes with forward press and no 3 putts even drained a 20ft putt for birdie.... Genius !!

Trottie …my pro recommended this yesterday has made my stroke feel so much more stable and distance control is better already. I have a slant neck spider ex. Thanks for the great content as always 👍🏼 🏴

This is the first time I have ever heard to lead with the left wrist if you use a standard putting grip....I had always wondered about that, but this is the first time....amazing!

I had a putter fitting at one of the major brands facilities and found that my existing putter had 5 degrees of loft, which combined with my delivery explained why I sometimes had longer putts bounce before rolling. The fitter recommended the right degree of loft (2 degrees) and toe-hang for my stroke. They built the putter for me and I've enjoyed two years of excellent putting. Can't emphasize enough how important a putter fitting was for me. Great video Chris.

Love it trottie, so would that further back the argument of armlock putters? Because I feel that stroke promotes a forward press and it’s something I’m looking at hard 👍🏽
@trottiegolf3 жыл бұрын
The armlock would certainly lock in a forward press motion, I can see that being a positive if that’s the route you want to go 🚛💨

Hmm, forward press at address doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll lower delivered loft at impact though right? I’ve always used it more as a mechanism for taking the club back easier. Great point about weight further back. Interesting that it has an affect on launch even when putting.

@trottiegolf I’m lefty and right eye dominant, so everything looks right when the ball is pretty far forward in my stance, but a forward press from that position looks misaligned. What should I do? Change putter loft?
@trottiegolf4 ай бұрын
I would only change loft based on the drill in this vid. Lefty , right eye dominant should be useful
@TheTimmychan3 жыл бұрын
So what could be the downside to having too little loft? And all stock spider x is 3deg. Loft. Would that mean players who putt well without the forward press all need loft adjustments to keep using the spider?

My misses are 90% left, would you recommend a more lofted putter?
@trottiegolf24 күн бұрын
I'd recommend going through this process, I don't think you'll need more loft

Never used one but I don’t hate the concept. The press is also to reduce tension so it’s not just about setting the loft

Which hosel type of the three would you recommend for a forward press putter? And which approximate loft would you recommend? Thank you.

Depends on the stroke & the press but without seeing you. Plumbers & at least 3°

Hello, i have a question. I now use a taylormade ghost tour ma-81. And i am rolling it quite good i think. As my alignment line on my ball rolls over and over. But i would like to go to something newer. Would a spider fcg slant neck give me the same thing? Or is there another option in taylormade putters?

Big Toe hand right? The Maranello / TPA 18 looking putter? If so then yes FCG short neck is a good option
