Re: What's your stroke technique with the putter?

I believe that the "hitters" with the putter are more into mechanics, and the "strokers" are more feel putters. This is just a personal perception. I have a long putting stroke.
I definitely take a longer stroke at the ball. I've never felt as accurate with a poppier motion.
