A couple of questions regarding the Directional Read:
1. Does directional read automatically give you the correct slope number for uphill/downhill putts so you no longer have to adjust arm bend? Or do you still bend your arm more for downhill putts, for example?
2. Where do you stand when making a directional read on lag putts? In the middle third where you feel the biggest slope?
Love the content, thank you!
The directional read will give you the correct slope number, however when dealing with severe uphill or downhill putts you will still slightly adjust arm bend to account for the decrease or increase of time it takes the ball to reach the hole.
With lag putts we are always looking for the biggest slope in the middle third, so yes, that is where you make your directional read.
Thanks,
