Green reading is arguably the most crucial skill in lowering your golf scores, yet many golfers rely on guesswork and outdated methods. Enter Aimpoint Putting, a revolutionary system utilized by professionals worldwide. The video we are featuring today promises to demystify this technique: “Aimpoint Putting Finally Explained Properly – How Aimpoint Express Works”. If you want to take the guesswork out of reading greens and consistently start your putts on the correct line, this is the essential guide you’ve been waiting for.
What is Aimpoint Putting?
Aimpoint is a systematic method for determining the precise line of a putt based on the slope of the green. It is not just a visual guess; it’s a quantifiable method based on physics and geometry.
- The Sensation of Slope: The technique involves holding up your fingers to gauge the slope’s angle. This is done by ‘feeling’ the incline of the green beneath your feet, translating that feel into a number, and using your fingers to find the corresponding break point.
- Pro-Level Consistency: Top players on the PGA Tour and LPGA Tour rely on Aimpoint to gain a significant advantage, especially on fast, complex greens.
Aimpoint Express: Simplified and Fast
While the original Aimpoint system was comprehensive, Aimpoint Express offers a streamlined, faster approach perfect for amateur golfers and competitive play with limited time. The video will teach you the simplified steps:
- Stance and Feel: Place your feet perpendicular to the fall line (the line directly downhill) and feel the percentage of the slope.
- Finger Calibration: Translate the perceived slope (e.g., 1%, 2%, 3%) into a certain number of fingers held up in front of you.
- Find the Aim Point: Align the outside edge of your finger(s) with the center of the hole to identify the exact spot on the green where you need to aim.
Why Aimpoint Works (When Other Methods Fail)
The power of Aimpoint lies in its ability to filter out visual illusions. On the golf course, optics can deceive you, making greens look flatter or steeper than they are. Aimpoint forces you to rely on the sensation of gravity, which provides a more accurate assessment of the slope.
- Perfect Speed Control: Once you have the correct line, your mind is free to focus solely on hitting the putt with the right speed.
