DEAR SIR:
DO YOU HAVE ANY GOOD TIPS FOR PUTTING WITH A BELLY PUTTER?
THANKS
MIKE k.
SPRINGFIELD, MO

I've been playing golf now for about 20+ years. My handicap ranges between 9 and 12 depending on how much I play. The more the better! However in the past few years a shank has entered into my swing that comes and goes without knowing what the cause is. I'm not hitting the hosel or end of the clubface. it appears that when I strike the ball the face is completely open and the ball shoots out to the right. Late last year it appeared again and now I can't stop it. I've spent hours on the practice range to correct the problem but it just won't go away! It's taken the fun out of the game and I've stopped playing.
