Okay, so I’ve been messing around with my putting lately, trying to find something that just clicks, you know? I saw Patrick Cantlay’s putting stroke, and it looked so smooth, so I figured I’d try to mimic his putter setup and see what happened.
Experimenting with Cantlay’s Putter Style
First, I spent some time just watching videos of Cantlay putting. I noticed how deliberate and controlled his entire process is. He doesn’t rush anything. It’s all very methodical.
- I started by trying to copy his stance. He seems pretty relaxed, not too stiff.
- Then I focused on the grip. I don’t know exactly how he grips it, but I played around until it felt somewhat similar.
- Next,I observed that Cantlay takes his * I tried to do that.
Honestly, the first few putts were… rough. I’m used to a quicker, maybe sloppier, routine. It felt weird slowing everything down. I kept at it, though, trying to really internalize that smooth, pendulum-like motion he has. I wasn’t thinking about making putts, just about getting the feel right. I started to get the feel of * but surely the putts is going better.
After a while, things started to feel a bit more natural. I wasn’t sinking every putt, but my consistency definitely improved. I felt like I had more control over the putter head, and my distance control got a lot better. It’s like by slowing down, I actually gained more control. Who knew?
I’m definitely going to keep working on this. It’s not a magic fix, and I don’t expect to putt like Cantlay overnight. But it’s given me a new perspective on my putting stroke, and I think it’s going to help me in the long run. It’s all about that smooth, controlled motion. I can feel it!
