Putting: Extending the Lead Arm
There are quite a few different right hand putting grips on tour but the way they use the left arm is the key to consistent putting.
Staying on the left
The Stack and Tilt swing is completely opposite to The Right Sided Swing. The shoulder and arm direction are completely different. In this video Gary talks about staying on the left side, and why people think that is the biggest attribute of the Right Sided technique.
Left Side in the way
Can you explain the differences between Right and Left sided swings in terms of the direction of the arms after impact? should I hit out to the target ?

Gary explains the wrist angles and radius, how to get them before you get into the ball and how they effect what the body does. He talks about the role of the right and left arm, and how the arms pull the body into a turn.
Elbow Bend in the follow through
Hi, One of the main concepts is the radius and how it is established early and then maintained or re-established in the follow through. When following through from impact does the early stage allow both arms to go straight (with some extension) or do you want the left elbow to fold quite soon […]
