I stopped missing right with a simple change, why?

I changed my pull down angle on my putt to a natural hyzer instead of forcing it flat.

This is the only change i made to the putt.

Why does it work like that, anyone know?

I added 2 pictures of the different examples.

Anyone else with the same experience?

My guess.....you were missing right when you threw level....now you are releasing on a slight hyzer which will cause the disc to fade left...correcting for the miss to the right.

There is no fade, very little if so. I tested from edge of circle.

I think there is something mechanicly that benefits me from comming upp with more releaxed hyzer angle then a forced flat angle when i push the disc forward. Its like mcbeth/robinson/ellis putting stroke, its that small hyzer that you see them have at the bottom of the stroke.

But im no expert, im just a guy with a dream that have tons of putting reps everyday.

Assuming the changes in your form mechanics are more like "shoveling" now, when I wind up a putt from that "hyzer" angle in the backswing, the wrist action uncoils such that the disc is better leveraged behind my wrist, and the pop & force are more naturally directly at the target with less missing to the right. The angle the disc exits on appears "flatter" than the initial "hyzer" angle in the cradle.

Same principle as backhand mechanics!

I think you are into something, i do not push the disc as directly out as with the flat angle.

When i have the hyzer i can visualize and feel a shoveling motion.

The direct push has not been as healthy as the shoveling motion when im putting, that is for sure and i will continue to keep the hyzer angle.
