At L.A.B. Golf, we’re all about removing variables. That’s exactly what ArmLock putting does. By resting the putter grip against the lead forearm, the ArmLock putting style helps golfers eliminate wrist movement during the stroke that can cause them to push or pull their putts. ArmLocking can also help with inconsistent speed control for golfers that either flip their wrists or don’t always release the putter on schedule. It doesn’t really matter how you hold an ArmLock putter, but most golfers use a conventional or claw grip where the lead wrist and forearm rest flat against the grip. As a result, the trailing wrist is set at a fairly significant angle. With the wrists out of play, the stroke must either be driven by the shoulders or by the lead arm. Either way, removing the variable of wrist bend during the stroke is a huge lever in improving consistency.
