Deaden fast downhill putts off the toe

For really quick putts, use the same stroke but intentionally hit the ball out of the toe. Toe contact should come off dead and a little slow, and it deadens the shot.

Try it

  1. Make your same stroke.
  2. Hit it out of the toe on purpose.

Why this context matters

Used on a quick downhill putt to take pace off without changing the stroke.
