    Do any members here putt without utilizing the aim triangle?  What I mean is leaving the aim triangle where it is, right above the cup, and use the power bar (draw/fade) either left or right of the ding to compensate for the breaks?  I have been using this method because I started playing the game incorrectly, without using the triangle to aim.  Except for very long putts, I find myself leaving the triangle alone.  I know it's wrong, but I can't seem to break the habit.

    Thanks Lump.  I'm not sure you need to duplicate my beauty though, as you have a better average than I do!

    It's called whatever works for you GC-like marioh says, sometimes it works best that way. Knowing your putter and what you can get away with is the key so if you're getting them in it really can't be wrong. Whatever works.   :-)

    I use this method for putting 99% of the time. It's effective for me, but I would advise newer users to use caution when using this method.

    The nivlac (a.k.a. WGTniv) putting method is a solid, and effective way to posting lower scores.
