Soren Hansen, the danish Ryder Cup player, couldn't figure out what Scotty Cameron should stamp on the face of his putter. He ended up with G. I. T. F. H..........get it??

These are all great but I need to keep it to 3 words or less. Leaning toward "Sustain The Lag". I'm sure the guys I play with will not understand the meaning of "Lag", they'll probably think I'm trying to 2-putt.
Im with Bagger on Lag Pressure, whatever the expression may be.
The other thought that serves me well is: "Address, Top, Finish". Hand stamped with dancing letters like a Cameron would be nice.
The Three Stations. The implication being that there is no provision of any kind for Impact and therefor no Throwaway or Hacking at the ball.
Tiger takes three quick continuous practice strokes beside the ball feeling/seeing/memorizing the Top, Finish as well as the associated Lag Pressure. Moves over to the ball, takes a mental "picture" of the hole and then "puts to the picture" with no provision for impact. Just Address, Top, Finish............applause, hug Stevie etc.
Its a great method that is almost like cheating when it comes to distance control, Pressure point #3 awareness monitoring the required Lag Pressure.
My personal method is a little Extensor Action and a Right Shoulder that does most of the work. Makes for a solid strike and puts the Brain in the Hands and Pressure Points.
