That stroke on Geoff's site is about 3 years old...much better now. Davidmac has it right, it is not just the stroke that maketh the putter. I work with a 16 year old whose Sam Puttlab numbers were better than Loren Roberts, and is nowhere near as good. Why? Cos you must control your speed FIRST! Then your stroke, then your reading and aim.
bcoak, how did you come up with 30 inches as your length?
What are you trying to do with your stroke?

Tom, maybe we could get the clubs out at the Manziposium!
I used the equation that Geoff has on his site to determine length. It is at 31" now, and I may keep that for the time being to try it out.
My stroke: where to begin!
1.I use primarily an arc type stroke, but find it inconsistent, esp. under the gun. I would liketo get the manipulation out of my stroke and lett it go.
2. I am trying to get more consistent with my stroke, esp. getting the ball started on line.
I really like his thoughts on gaze, vertical motion of the shoulders, and putting straight. He has so much stuff it is hard to digest/remember it all!
I putt with the claw/paintbrush grip which I would like to get rid of, but Geoff stated not to sweat it so we shall see.
My home course is an old New England Donald Ross with smallish, undualating, and fast greens. It would be nice to get the "hit" out of the stroke and start rolling it truer.
First step is to practice the core putt, but still a little fuzzy on what it is exactly.
