Blast

I Headed down to Blast Motion this week again.  A few weeks ago I went to Blast to become certified with the Blast Motion Censor. It’s a device that fits on the end of your putter or club and then paired with your phone or tablet. When you make a stroke or strike it gives the user metrics of the stroke or swing. For putting it tells us of the timing of the stroke, how much the club opens and closes back and thru, whether we add or decrease loft and lie. When one practices with this improvement happens very fast.  You could get on a Samm Putt Lab which costs 8-10 K or use this which is only 150! And it does most of the same thing. You can even make a game out of it to try to make the perfect stroke. Guys on the Champions Tour are playing games amongst themselves to see who can make the most perfect stroke. One of the key things that will help you make a better stroke is posture. I have had poor posture in the past. I tend to leave the putter open at impact. So if the club opens 2 degrees on the backstroke it may only close 1.5. This leaves the putter open and the ball to the right. My hands drop, I decrease lie and I add loft. This is a result of posture. So if I keep my spine angle in the same position those faults fix themselves. If you're in the Seattle area and you want to pick up a Blast sensor, shoot me an email and pick one up. It is the best aid for feedback that you can get for $150...
