In this episode of AimPoint University, Mark, Jamie, and Gareth explore the critical concept of ideal capture speed and how it directly impacts your putting performance. They emphasize that the hole is a circle, and any misalignment or off-center approach means the ball simply won't have enough time to fall in. As the ball speeds up, the effective width of the hole becomes smaller, making it more challenging for the ball to find its way in. To ensure a successful putt, the ball needs to move at a speed that allows it the time to drop into the hole. The faster the ball is traveling when it reaches the hole, the more precise your line and read need to be to account for that reduced margin for error. This episode breaks down how to balance speed, accuracy, and precision to give your putts the best chance of being holed.
