Coralpro; you completely miss the point of using a line on the ball. When you get over your ball, you have to look at your intended line, then align the club to that line, then make a correct length stroke to roll the ball the correct distance. That makes for 3 things you have to do when you get over your ball. By aligning my ball with my intended line before I step up to the ball. I only have 2 things left to do. Align the face of my putter to the line one the ball. then make the correct length stroke. Seems pretty simple to me. If you have 3 things to do, and I only have 2 things to do only over the ball. YOU have 1 more thing to get wrong than I do. Odds are in my favor I'd say. And YES, I still have to make a good stroke if I want the ball to go in the cup. BUT YOU CAN SAY THAT ABOUT EVERY STROKE YOU EVER MAKE IN GOLF. So why mention it now? If you want to throw in all the possible things that can go wrong with every shot and use is as a reason not to aim your ball, or setup up correctly at address, WHY do you bother play golf ? We all know that we all miss more often then we make a perfect swing or shot. so why aim at all? Why do you align your feet for each shot? Why bother if you KNOW so many things can go wrong and you have to make a good stroke?
I can't speak for anyone else, but I believe in setting up correctly every time, and then trying to make a good swing or stroke every time. Doesn't happen every time, but I still aim, and I still do everything I can to succeed. It sounds like you're all ready to fail, not succeed. Talk about NEGATIVE thinking. Some of you guys are perfect examples of negative thinking. All ready to fail. Feel free to continue with that if you want, but don't tell me or anyone else to go down the same negative road.
