Jack Nicklaus, one of the all-time best putters, used to say he would think about the palm of his right hand traveling down his intended line. This is one of the reasons I like my students to practice putting with the right hand only (left). It reminds you how to release the putterhead properly and helps you regain your hand-eye coordination. By using one hand, you tend to forget about the mechanics of the stroke and simply roll the ball to the hole. That's a great mind-set for the course.—Rick Smith / Golf Digest Teaching Professional
