Why Ball Position is Critical in a Side-Saddle Putting Stroke

In this new episode on the basics of side-saddle putting, Chase Bomar, who is part of the Bomar Putting Company, describes the importance of ball position and the golfer's stance relative to the ball when attempting a side-saddle stroke.

With a ball position too far forward or backward, alignment will be thrown off.

It's also important to stand about a putter-length away from the ball so your arms can swing freely during the stroke.
