I was messing around on the practice green, waiting for the rest of my group to show up last Monday. For no particular reason, I tried gripping the putter left hand low and realized I was hitting the ball more on line. Distance control was kind of questionable, specially on longer putts, but when we played, I kept using it. I made some short putts, 10 feet or so, but the main thing was, I was missing long or shot, not side to side.I'm thinking about continuing with it, but it raises some questions.
The putter i was using has a larger grip that wasn't comfortable in the fingers on my right hand, so when I got home, I held a putter with a more normal grip and it solved that problem. That just happened to be a Mizuno Axix putter Hursty helped find for me. Still though, I'm curious, do any of you putt left hand low with a big grip and maybe turn your hands in some way to feel a better grip with the right hand?
I tried interlocking and that was really uncomfortable, so I discounted that way. When I tried 10 finger, overlapping and reverse overlapping, none were immediately comfortable, but I couldn't figure out which felt like I was best connected to the putter.
Who uses left hand low and how do you find it easiest to grip the club?
