I have been watching some videos on putting, and one of them noted that every good putter immobilizes the elbow and uses the shoulder and legs to impart the momentum to the disc, whether it's climo's straight arm or todd's "terydactyl" arm. It appeared that immobilizing or minimizing wrist movement was part of the message, and that we should just try to focus on using leg movement with shoulder lift and/or rotation to putt.
However, I noticed from Jay and Des Reading's videos that they seem to incorprate quite a bit of elbow movement when putting, and they are great putters, no doubt. So I don't know if I should focus on eliminating the elbow movement or not.
What do you guys think? Is elbow movement generally something to be avoided? What about wrist?
