Putting mirrors.

Anyone tried one of these?, I've heard they help with clubface alignment etc.
Thinking about grabbing one of these.

Got one at home if you want to have a run with it. They are a great training aid. The fella that runs that eBay business is the guy who set myself and the bride up on a blind date.

Ray Cook did a great Mirror putting system.

I've used YES & Callaway one's before, certainly helps with alignment over the ball/head position.

I couldn't believe how far off i was when i first used one...

I hope I didn't chop you out Gaz as I pulled the trigger as soon as I saw it.

[Yossarian]

Do they show you how good you look at the same time?

[MegaWatty]

I have the same one in the OP, and the painted lines have peeled off the top of it after very little use! Careful I say.

I've had mine for 6 months and haven't had any issues. Do you leave yours in the boot of your car?

You can do a similar thing with the left hand after you set yourself up at address. Let go of the putter with your left hand and form the hand and forearm into a straight line. Bring the thumb and fingers to almost eye level so that it lines the ball and target vertically, with your eyes just seeing over the outside of the finger line. The beauty of this exercise is that you can carry it on to the course to spot check your alignment and eye position.:)

Sounds complicated - so it should work.
However, I require pictures for my feeble mind to understand the instructions.

That sounds familiar.;)
Try again it is a left handed salute action in the putting stance where the thumb side of the fingers are brought up to the bridge of the nose so that the eyes can just see over the outside edge of the top finger. If you can't see the ball in your stance then your eyes are on the outside of the ball. If you can just see the full ball your eyes are directly over the ball. This drill has the added benefit of getting your face parallel with the putting surface, which is a real plus to seeing the correct line.

[sms316]

Just drop a ball from your eyes and see where it lands.

Just make sure you do it after finishing the hole.
