Unusual "PutterWheel" Training Aid Being Employed By Team Europe At Ryder Cup
My guys have been out and about today on the putting green at Gleneagles and noticed several of the European players trying out an unusual training aid which appears to be two thirds of a golf ball with the edges removed.
After a bit of googling I think I've located the device. It's called the PutterWheel. Here's the description on the breakingpar.ie website where the device is sold online.
The PutterWheel system is comprised of a highly engineered PutterWheel and its corresponding alignment template.The PutterWheel is not simply a ball with the sides cut off. It is is designed to replicate the size, weight and feel of an actual golf ball.
The PutterWheel is uniquely engineered to be highly sensitive to mis-hits, resulting in wobbling and curving off the intended line. Multiple engineering, manufacturing and testing cycles were deployed over 2 years to get the perfect combination of outer material hardness, internal weighting and other factors to provide the right amount of feedback. The red beveled edges make getting your eyes directly over the ball fool-proof. The corresponding alignment template is also an important part of the PutterWheel system.
Once you have trained yourself to roll the PutterWheel smoothly on line, you can deploy that mental visualization on the course by drawing 2 parallel lines on your game ball with the alignment tool.
Breakingpar.ie are selling a 3 ball pack for â¬39.95 + P&P. Hey, I pay twice that if it meant I got a few more putts. Hope it works for Team Europe!
