Bi-Moto Putting Technique

[maniak]

Has anyone tried this? If so, do you like it? It sure looks silly.

That is some wild looking stuff. I get it, but I don't know about the feel. I'd have to try it, but this looks like one of those things I will have to see it live first before hand....looks a bit gimmicky.

A few of the videos showing short putts, he appears to break the guidlines of maintaing balance by stepping or shifting after release.

[Nickwells]

Looks legit to me.

[maniak]

I'm going to try it, but only if no one's looking.

Looks like a turbo putt, but with your off hand helping out more.

That's what I thought too when I saw this.

[gcoghill]

Weird! Looks like it works for him though.

TURBO PUTTING FOR DUMMIES? I can' take advice from a Rec player who is unranked........Good imagination though!!!!!!!!!

[BigSkyState]

can't take advice from a Rec player who is unranked..

Russell, the dude recently joined the pdga. His first ranked tourney was 902.

[BigSkyState]

Correction: meant to say, the dude in the video recently joined the pdga...

[bikedoctor]

I'm unranked. I meant to get rank, but I didn't.

I will one day though. I will by golly, you wait and see.

[Evil_Poizon]

It's just like the turbo putt, acept it sucks. Cus the best part about the Turbo is the you can lean out from behind something, with your foot behind your lie, and putt with one hand out to the side. For this putt you need two hands. So it's basically useless.:cool:

[XxInnovaxX]

SUCKS!! no d whatsoever.... the putts i would do this on i usually just reach out and touch the chains myself

[jesus]

It's all the same on the scorecard.

[t i m]

I'll have to try it for fun later. thanks for the vids. I'm always willing to try goofy shots. never know when they will come in handy.

(Yo Russell!) I was looking at round ratings on PDGA MT State Championships for '09, and noticed the dude in the bi-moto video, laid down 950 and 962 rated rounds. I've played in leagues with him, and never see him do anything but bi-moto putts. Kinda odd to see at first, but if it ain't broke..

See 'pro master #2' on link below..

Funny you bumped this, cause I was out turbo putting for the hell of it, then I see this and might give it a shot.

Has anyone tried it much since this was posted?

[craftsman]

Just saw this thread. Stood up, grabbed three putters, walked to the 12ft mark and nailed em. Interesting

[Technohic]

I tried it and couldnt do it, but my Turbo Putt is coming along at a suprising pace.

[ChainMan]

A free style champ taught me this in the early 80s. There are situations on wooded courses where the turbo will not work but the bi-moto will. If you are right handed you want your right index finger to follow through just left of the pole. Get a nice smooth rotation going and follow through smoothly. I agree it's kind of a gimmick shot but it can come in handy.

[Fender088]

don't really dig it

[sirflicksalot]

to many ways to putt think i will stick with the way i do it

[captain jack]

Ok, so it's not good for 100 footers, but , after reading it last night, I thought it did have some merits.
Basketball free throw shooters use two hands, with training this could help with alignment.
The idea of having the disc at eye level, and " flashing" the flight plate for aligning the verticle plane with the basket I also think has merit, its works for throwing darts.


I am much more interested in the putting style described here:

But thrown as a Whittler, is what it is best for. And a Whittler is thrown from the hip like a horseshoe. And MAN! does it work. It`s straight as an arrow. So, definately, if you are good at horseshoes, you`ll want to try a Whittler. It does exactly what it`s designed to do. Very easy to control

What the ............. ?

I used to play horseshoes.
Does this mean you flip the disc like a coin, with the rim tumbling, but with an underhand toss ?
Anybody use this ?
Bueller ?

[NothinButChing]

T Stack putts like money with this technique ... dude putts like he's shooting a basketball n is very accurate from out to 30 feet with it

[Rockyraccoon]

I'm a turbo putter from way back....Well ten years or so anyway.

At least that's what I think it's called. For me, its a one handed hold over my shoulder and a free throw kind of release that sends the disc humming to the chains (or in my case....past the chains).

I don't see a lot of people doing it. I have great accuracy with it within 15 feet or so. After that distance can be tough with slow disc fade at the end.

I tried to Bi-moto method a few times and couldn't get it to work. Go Figure!
