In recent years, thanks to the beliefs of Scotty Cameron and Stan Utley, the trend of putting instruction has been to swing the putter on an arc. The putting arc swings from inside the ball on the backstroke to inside the ball on the thru swing. The putter face will open relative to the target and stay square to the arc on the backstroke. The putter face will close relative to the target but stay square to the arc on the forward swing. Both Scotty Cameron and Stan Utley believe that the putter is designed to swing in the angle of the shaft. In addition, Scotty Cameron can prove his point with a laser pen that attaches to the shaft of the putter. When the putter is swinging in the correct arc, the laser travels on a straight line back and thru. But if the putter head swings on a straight line back and thru, the laser draws a big smiley face.
Putting Arc Facts
- The putting theory is based upon natural body movement which can be quickly learned and repeated. Results can be seen in several days and 20,000 repetitions are not required.
- The putter head travels in a perfect circle (radius R) and the projection of this circle on the ground is an ellipse in the shape of the Putting Arc
- The putter is always on the proper plane (the sweet-spot/spinal pivot plane). The intersection of this plane with the ground is a straight line, the ball/target line.
- The club face is always square to the above plane. It is only square to the ball target line at the center line of the Putting Arc. You are learning an inside to square to inside putting stroke.
- In this perfect putting stroke, there is only one moving part. The hands, arms and shoulders rotate as one unit. No manipulation of the hands or arms is required to follow the correct path with a correct clubface. It happens automatically.

In the other camp is Dave Pelz who believes that the putter should move straight back and straight through. With this being said, there are only two ways for the putter to travel straight back and straight through:
1. The pivot point (spine or shoulder joints) must be perfectly over the ball. 2. You must manipulate the club face during the stroke
Both of these moves are unnatural moves and require many moving parts. This makes them very difficult to repeat on a consistent basis. The Putting Arc Deluxe, MSIII or T3 can which Stan Utley endorses will cure the bad habits you have formed trying to make the putter go straight back and straight through.
