Geoff Mangum (IG: @geoffmangum , FB: @geoff.mangum , YT: @geoffmangum ) is the world leader when it comes to all things putting. He has spent more than 35 years reading and researching anything and everything that has to do with putting. In this episode, Geoff delves into the intricacies of putting, critiquing various theories and methods, particularly the Aim Point system. He also discusses the limitations of human perception in reading slopes, the importance of instinctive learning in golf, and the effectiveness of distance control techniques. This episode also touches on the zero-torque putter phenomenon, emphasizing the need for golfers to understand the physics behind their equipment and techniques rather than relying on gimmicks.
