As Putt Potential doesn't use cameras to aid in the analysis process there is only so much that it can detect. However, it will be to detect the Putting Arc, Tempo, Stroke length (back and through), Stroke speed, and launch direction of the golf ball.
Examples of some of measurable metrics putting
Putting arc refers to the direction in which the putter moves to create a putting stroke. The two fundamental putting styles are the arc stroke and the straight-through stroke. There can be slight variations in these styles of stroke, but this is usually down to what each player prefers to do with the putter.
For this style of putting, if you set up a putting line, the sweet spot on the head should follow the line and hit the ball at a 90-degree angle. Your follow-through should also move along a straight course.
This method is very common and often the easiest style to replicate as it follows just a straight line
This style is slightly more difficult to master and is often used by pros such as Tiger Woods. They say that this style gives golfers greater control. As the putter moves back the face is slight open and then closes again through the stroke creating this slight arc.
The objective of any putting tempo is to maintain an even back and forth rhythm. Meaning that the putter moves at a consistent pace.
Irrespective of the length of your backstroke, the total time of your putting stroke should remain the same.
Stroke length is the distance the putter moves back and through the shot. This will vary depending on the distance that the ball has to travel
The length of time it takes for the putter to make a back and through stroke
When a putter strikes the ball, it doesn’t necessarily move in a straight line. The ball can diverge off its intended start line because the putter is either opened or closed to the path. This can be the difference between a golfer holing a putt or missing it.
