Let me know in the comments below what you think are the most useful tips!
Thanks Pagraig, another great video and timely for me as putting is my current area of focus to improve further. High side tip, awesome! I've also never really thought about posting more weight on my left or right side at address for putting. Trying it now in the living room it feels like i'm not square up through my posture? Doing it wrong clearly.
Love the high side tip! Now to work on the grip.. Most legit CZcams golf instructor in the world! :)
My tip would be ankle length fairway rough in Rome...
Anything you share with us is the most useful!! Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to share your knowledge
Great stuff again..love the short game stuff.. Struggle with 20-40 yard pitch shots. More please 😂
Padrig: I watched ur video on putting and how a putt missed low ends up 3x further away than one missed high. I used that thought on every putt today and played a little more break on every putt. I am 71 and I shot my age for the first time. Made 132’ of putts. Great lesson. Thank you.
Missing the longer range putts on the high side … pure gold tip, thanks Paddy !
Guys a coaching genius for us amateurs. Thanks so much Paddy!
For a golfer, this is where the rainbow ends. Pure gold! We have access to real, hardearned experience, and at the same time we can sense how much scientific research has added to the presentation.
This guy is a natural instructor. A gift.
Your advice about going on the high side is gold dust.Great tips from someone who has done it all and just wants to give something back: wonderful!
The stopping at impact has transformed my putting....this is pure gold.
Loved the tip on long putts, always go high. BTW was concerned you might take a break from your vids. You were hugely respected as a classy Ryder Cup captain, and really appreciate your infectious enthusiasm for teaching us handicap golfers how to improve. Big thank you.
Have always heard of missing on the high side "the pro side" but this video demonstrates what thst actually means visually and from a world class golfer and TEACHER. Thanks Paddy!
throwing a golf ball 6ft in front of you makes you realise what you haven't been doing all these years. Great tip. Thank you Padriag.
I've watched a lot of Padraig's tip over the last few weeks, and my game has gotten a lot more solid. That putting high trick on longer putts really works.
The "tap" thought is great, gives a positive image to the stroke.
Paddy I can't thank you enough for taking the time to do these videos, they are so helpful and from a man as experienced as yourself they are invaluable. Personally I would like a weight transfer tip from top of my backswing to finish
Your tips are always valuable and much appreciated, Paddy! And, speaking as an American, I can say that you led your team with grace and dignity over the weekend. There wasn't much you could've done differently against that buzzsaw. Nothing to hang your heads about, just prepare for next time. Cheers, Mate!
Great post, couldn't have said it better
Thanks again Padraig.
Putting way high and trying to stop at impact have just worked wonders for me.
God bless, Captain.
For the sequel, please kindly share your experiences, skills, and techniques in green reading. 🙏
Very soon!
Missing on the high side to keep it closer is something I've never heard before that is pure gold.
Fascinating and insightful as always!
Love the tip on placing the ball 1 inch forward of the sternum to promote the slight upward stroke and get a roll. Also love the tip on missing long putts on the high side to shorten the distance of a 2nd putt.
Common sense tips as always but explained in such a way that we can learn to do things right without too many swing thoughts, or technical changes.
Keep up the great work Padraig.
You are making the technical side of the game far easier to understand by showing us great technique that is achievable for everyone!
After you have another 5 wins on the European and PGA tour over the next 2 years, you could definetely have a future as a coach!
Absolute legend!!!
I’ve never heard the missing on the high side tip contextual used this way. I think it’s a game changer. If I’m not making those putts, I just try to lag them up. Always miss on the low side trying to be precise and not being able to execute. This reframed my intentions. Thx Paddy.
Also, well done to you and your Ryder Cup team. Pure Class.
My putting game is absolutely killing my score!! I need to work on this hardcore this year. Thank you for the video!!
Always love your videos Padraig. I hope you're relaxing after the marathon of being a Ryder Cup Captain. You're one of the good-guys Padraig and one of the most respected human beings in the World of Golf. You will be remembered as being a fantastic Captain, much loved and respected by players and fans. It was simply a watershed year for the Ryder Cup in terms of the strength of the USA team and the lopsided fan-base. All outwith your control, you did it right Padraig.
Watched for the third time just now.., always a good idea to refresh the lessons by Paddy. This is gold.
Amazing, in a few minutes Paddy has identified all of my putting flaws and explained how to sort them! Top bloke!
Watched this before my round this morning. I have never, ever putted this well. The tap.
I appreciate the way you tell us ie 1” in front of the sternum and that’s how it is “ no what if’s or what about…thanks again
Brilliant! I've never heard thar bit about missing on the high side on long puts. Thank you, Paddy!
Downhill putts are the trickiest for me. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks very much for these tips of gold , I played 9 holes at a new course yesterday and shot 2 over with only 13 putts . My usual playing partners couldn’t believe how good I putted . I told them to watch your channel. Now on to watching your driving tips. I can’t Thank you enough for taking time to make these videos.
Brilliant as always. Never heard the missing on the high side tip. Makes so much sense.
I’m a scratch golfer and that’s an extremely valuable tip (miss extra high)! It’s something I instinctively do but I have never seen it put into words/tip before.
Thank you for clarifying the grip in this video.
Very useful to see the differences between it and a more orthodox "in the fingers" grip for the rest of the game.
This is seriously the best putting instructional video I have ever watched. Thanks Padraig!
Would love to hear your advise on any of the below please Captain Harrington.
1) Long putts - in particular reading the green and speed.
2) Deciding between chipping or putting when just off the green.
3) Short chips from rough when about 15 feet away from hole (sometimes struggle to accelerate through the ball which results in duffing the chip).
Great tips as always, love trying to put them into practice. Go raibh maith agat!
Excellent lesson. Just what I needed. I’ve changed my full swing and pitching/chipping swing, and I’m hitting it better. But I’m missing the putts. You’ve convinced me to go back to “left hand low” putting. I tried it 20 years ago but couldn’t get the pacing right. Always long and felt my stance felt open. Even when I putt left handed, I’m lead hand low. But your lesson here I think just gave me the grip I need for “left hand low” putting. Thanks Paddie, and great job in the Ryder Cup. Your boys came to play and played well. 🥂
Padraig ! That was brilliant - thanks
These are the best instructional videos out there. I miss Paddy on tour
On todays video, the 3-1 ratio of break for amateurs and the high-low side of long turning puts were really useful tips. Thank you!
A great series of tips Padraig, presented in an understandable and simple fashion. Please keep up the good work. Hitting longer range putts high on the high side is the one stand out tip for me.
You have always putted left hand low with great success as others like Jordan Speith, Jim Furyk and many very successful golfers. Would you consider producing a video with your thoughts on why you use this method, advantages, how you place your hands, which hand delivers the hit, effect in controlling wrist break-down, view on arm lock or long putter methods by comparison, etc.
Can I also add to the the many other contributors in praise of your captaincy of the European Ryder Cup team and what a great job you did away on American soil especially with very limited European support due to travel restrictions.
Priceless advice. Your chipping technique became a fundamental for me. I’ll try your putting technique. Thanks a lot PH.
I’ve been playing over 30 years and have heard countless times that amateur golfers borrow too little break. This is the very first time explaining that the higher borrow gets the lag putts closer! Brilliant.
Thank you so much Paddy. I never really thought about Ball positions in putting. I guess that’s why I’m watching this great lesson. The worst part of my game. Cheers 🥃🇨🇦. I’ll put this to work.
Brilliant about the break on a long putt, I never thought about that
that tip on higher putts finishing closer is great, never even thought of that x
P this is the best instructional video I have seen in years, thanks. My putting was never bad but now vastly improved..
Glad it helped
First time watching your channel, and although I have heard many times that we should always miss high, I thought the only reason was the hole is "bigger" on the high side. Never heard about the shorter miss on the high side. Thanks Paddy, you are a top class player and having
Great tip about putting on the high side. I always end up with the 6ft plus putt but not anymore...hopefully!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the tips. People always say confidence is the key to putting, but in my experience, if you don't have good technique, you will not succeed, no matter how high your confidence. I liked the tips on hitting up on it slightly, and on giving it a tap. Both valuable bits of advice.
Love the simplicity and logic of the lessons Padraig.
What a great video. Thanks Paddy!
The factor of 3 tip is a goodie. Love those 2 ball putters! Thanks for the great content presented simply and clearly :-)
That was really helpful advise regarding how much to approach a putt with lots of break.
Great stuff! 👍
Putting masterclass!
I changed to a similar style of cack handed putting to reduce shoulder tension. Golf is one-sided and half the time your putting. ThIs tension release has improved both my putting and long game...additional bonus of mental switch/reset between long and short game due to significantly diifferent grips for each...
I had no idea about the factor of 3 with the miss high vs the miss low, but it does explain a lot of my 3 putts. Such a really useful tip.
Everything you say is worth listening!!
Thank you for helping people play good golf, your a good person.
Thank you, sir, again. I changed my putting grip from right hand down to left hand down, and since that my put bern more stable. You explained why it did. ✌️. Thank you 🙏
Thankyou very much padraig ,great advice ,I found the always keep the ball on the high side the most useful tip
I want to thank you , I’ve use your putting Style and technique , and I’m great putter now 👍
Brilliant, aiming on the high side is a great tip. I'll try all your tips. Thanks
Thanks! I really needed this!
Missing on the high side. Didn’t realise that ended up closer. Golden, thanks.👍🏻
Thanks for the brilliant demonstration and tutorial!
Answered every question I have on putting. Thanks very much Padraig
Some useful tips I've not seen in other videos. One missing for me is how to get your forearms and putter shaft in a straight line - which most pros seem to do but few amateurs achieve.
Well done Padraig! Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It was full of great information.
Thanks Paddy, some great tips here. I like what you say about keeping putting simple. The best putters have very a basic technique.
Absolutely brilliant Padraig..the amount of videos I've seen and there was no mention of some of your extremely important points. In particular the high and low. Thank you
Thanks Paddy. Love the long put tip.
Brilliant video yet again, thank you very much. What I would give to have you go through my game. You explain things so well and are so aware of the challenges that handicap (and professional) golfers have, it is incredible. Thank you again. 👍
Researched to the point of breaking the internet and have concluded that PH's putter is not available to Joe Public. Odyssey 2ball with a plumbers neck - Ark of the Covenant is easier to find!!!! Loving your work Padraig, keep it up please.
I love your videos Paddy, extremely helpful and I will put this putting one into practice. your enthusiasm for the game is very infectious!
Great tips, cant wait to change my putting, thanks Padraig
Thank you Paddy, for spending time sharing your insight, great stuff!!
I've always been quite a good putter but have been missing a lot lately and have been playing about and trying allsorts. This was a masterclass Paddy. Thank-you very much. I play with the passion of you and your opens wins inspire me.
Great explanation for why to go high on the putts, I never considered the extra run after missing low side
Better to miss putts on the high side for a closer 2nd putt. Now THAT'S and excellent golf tip that I haven't though of! Thanks for the great putting lesson Padraig! 👍⛳
Paddy,
Thanks for the tips! I missed the cut at my provincial amateur this year simply because I had the yips. I was missing tap ins and I even had a 4 putt.
Your thoughts on the “tap feel” really sits with me. I spent all year trying to smooth it out, but clearly that didn’t work!
This is gold info coming from a multiple major champion.
I can’t thank you enough for freely sharing this information.
Thanks so much!
love this video - great tips
Great tips, my favorites are the thought about closed/open shoulders and the eye-opener on low misses.
Thanks padraig enjoyed it you’re the best
It's amazing how everything makes so much sense when you're being taught by a professional so thank you padraig for the tips and guidance now all I have to do is remember them when practicing one tip at a time 👌, best of luck for the rest of season and thanks again for sharing your knowledge, Joe in court own GC.
Padraig, congratulations on winning the Senior US Open! It was truly a pleasure watching you tackle Sauron Valley CC, I had a few good friends playing in the tournament and know how difficult the wet rough was on Thursday, you played amazing golf.
Great lesson! Covered all the key elements all great putters use. Would love to see more on reading greens and developing feel for distance putts. Thank you and please keep these lessons coming.
Many many good tips here - dropping the left arm instead of the right arm, hold the club in the palm not the fingers, miss on the high side... fantastic help, again! (ps. the garden looks so much bigger than last year :)
Everything has been helping me 👍👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Mr. Harrington, thank you so much for this channel!
Fantastic lesson,
As always, super informative. So sick to get such detailed advice from a multi major champion!
Thank you so much for your priceless tips.
Absolutely brilliant
This is great, Padraig. The things I found most helpful were looking for the tap (prevents me tending to push it, which I'm prone to do) and aiming to miss wide on the high side. I nearly always under-compensate for breaks/slopes. Thanks very much.
Great lesson Paddy.. Congratulations on yet, another win!
Paddy pure genius tips, thanks
Good stuff!
All of your tips and lessons have been fantastic! For your question on most useful, Always felt like I had a neutral grip but am working to make sure I have it deep enough in my fingers. 2nd, was use of hands and chest in the golf swing, spot on! Darn near put a ball through my apartment wall when chipping the compression was so much better and the last tip was putting left hand low to improve shoulder alignment. It will take time to be comfortable but I see the benefits you explained. Thank you for all of your videos! Jeff
Love the miss high tip on long putts never thought of it but so true they go further away when I miss low!
The reinforcement of the technique through the video is great and it’s a great tip to err on the high side.
Brilliant info!!!
