Product Description
The proven approach that guarantees results on the green by tapping the power of natural intuition based on cutting-edge research Born out of the most popular Golf Magazine cover story of 2005, Instinct Putting begins with a crucial but counterintuitive premise: You should look at the hole, not at the ball, while putting. Golf-club technology has helped amateurs drive the ball farther than ever, but no amount of technology has managed to conquer the mind-game of putting. Delivering a complete paradigm shift, Instinct Putting features a breakthrough, scientifically proven method that will have golfers defying their previous training while sinking more putts than they ever dreamed possible. Currently one of the hottest topics on the links, instinct putting combines simplicity with phenomenal results. Emphasizing the brain's instinctive ability to perform incredible tasks through unconscious information processing, rather than through active thought, the authors take readers through important but uncomplicated steps to retrain their putting protocols. From stance and grip to execution, Instinct Putting puts the keys to precision putts in the hands of golfers at all levels. Ending the frustration on the green, this revolutionary approach transforms every golfer's most maddening shots into their greatest rewards.

 Try it - it really works October 11, 2008
I'm 65 years (young) with an 8 handicap. Putting has been my biggest handicap since starting golf. I leave a large percent of my putts short; some within 1/2 to 2 inches from the hole!! Grrrrr. I've heard of this "instinct" method before reading the book but never adopted it because 'if it was so good, why weren't more golfers doing it?' Anyway, I went back to the method after reading the book and the results are fantastic. When looking at the hole from up to 50 feet away, my putts are no longer feeble and short. I may miss them but I'm making many more than I ever did. I love the effect when my friends say, "Nice birdie or nice putt," instead of "Ohhh, too bad." I haven't perfected this method with very long putts like 50 to 75 feet because I have to take the putter back too far for even instinct to work. I'll keep working at it and I'll soon do all my putting this "Instinct" way.
If it makes a scratch golfer better, it will help you!!! September 23, 2008

Let me start off with a little information on myself. I am a scratch golfer playing for a Division 1 college. I averaged 32.1 putts per round last year with a scoring average of 74.1 in 13 tournaments. I was dissatisfied with length putting and the clutch 4-10 footers for par saves. This book makes so much sense it just isn't funny. I was skeptical before buying it, but followed Eric Alpenfels with great interest as a Teaching Professional at Pinehurst Golf Academy. I started the technique explained in the book with the putting test recommended. The results were phenomenal! I am easily making 2-3 more putts per round and am so confident over 50 footers. I probably 3 putted 1-2 times per round from 30-70 feet, and still have yet to 3-putt one single time since finishing the book two and a half weeks ago! This book is truely revolutionary and Mr. Alpenfels has really got it right. I beg you to please read this book and improve your putting. I beleive in it so much I had to gt on here and write this review. Go IP!!
 Strange but true - so far September 10, 2008
I bought this book out of curiosity more than anything else as the basic tenet of what you are required to do seems so bizarre. However after reading it and then following suggested drills in the suggested order (I am up to day five at the moment) I am actually improving to the point where I am already more confident standing over a fifteen footer than I was putting conventionally. It feels very strange to start with but this disappears very (like five minutes) quickly and I haven't miss hit a ball for three days now. You really can get a solid strike fairly near the sweet spot consistently without looking at the ball. However this is only practice green stuff; I am going to try it in a round this weekend and that will be the real test.
