I've been trying to work a lot on pitch/push putt with a little bit of spin whenever I'm in the circle. I've been doing this for most of this season so far, with mixed results. When it's on it's very good, and very forgiving if I hit right of center (lefty putt). With not a lot of spits, it's tempting to keep doing this.
However, it requires a lot of consistency with my form that has been hard to develop. I tried spin putting today briefly and it was working very well. Few misses, very few spits. i had the confidence to fire it right at the basket and not worry about blowing by. It seems like a lot of high level pros have eschewed the spin putt though- I know Feldberg in particular is pretty outspoken about it. Is it really all that bad? I'm tempted to keep working on it just because E-Mac hits some absolutely unbelievable putts from 60+.
