First off I look at the hole and not the ball from short range. This was because all I was ever doing was feeling tension in my hands before I did this.
I also go left hand low, as I always found it uncomfortable to square my arms and shoulders when I used the conventional putting grip.
I started using my unconventional putting grip and style when I started playing golf when I was around 13-14 years old.
When I looked at the ball instead of the hole, I found I was getting too technical at shorter range putts, and my ball speed was very inconsistent.
Reversing this to look at the hole instead of the ball worked well on putts of 4-5 feet where speed is not that important.
Being a Scotsman, I have a natural love of golf. I've not seen many golf posts on Steemit so far, so if you wish to see more golf posts, please drop me a comment.
I'd love to see the #steem-golf tag tee-off!
Happy short game my fellow Steemians!

I have scottish genes....but the golf genes didn't arrive..... I do think it would be fun for all the golf fans to have a steem-golf tage tee off.

I learnt golf backwards. First I learnt my short game then I learnt my long game.
