Working out of my sixth , this was a point that I missed, got stuck on as I froze the whole shebang. I locked the Pivot and Shoulders up, no Shoulder motion. Something I didnt like at all. Something that set me back a ways, induced Quitting even , ouch.
An Arm (left or right), Zone 2 only, Push or Pull Minor Basic Stroke will have some Shoulder Motion! As if the ARm pushes and pulls the shoulders a tad. My Pull Basic Putting Stroke can look very Shoulder Stroke like as the shoulders do move but it isnt a Paw Minor Basic Stroke!
Ive always wondered about Tiger's putting stroke, though it looks like a shoulder stroke -Paw Minor Basic, could it really be a Push Minor Basic Stroke (Right Arm Only) with Shoulder Motion as opposed to Shoulder Work. Thats something Id ask him given the chance. He practices, trains with just his right arm attached when chipping and putting. More of a fanning right forearm than an inline Push Basic deal....
Any of you guys know for sure? Having displayed the best putting of all time in my opinion his old pattern would be nice to decipher.
