I used to lay my cigar on the ground like an alignment stick. Took the guys I played with a surprisingly long time to catch on

I have been using this line on my ball as a putting alignment aid for years, I cannot wait to hit the course and the range and try these tips. I have a whole folder on KZread just for golf tips that I can review and you are a lot of them. Thank you!

this guy loves the lines, not just on the golfball

I have always marked my ball with a large “T” for several reasons. 1. My first initial, 2. Putting alignment, direction and square up the club face with the top of the “T”. 3. On the tee box, I use the “T” for spine and shoulder alignment, a slightly tilted T to the rear, makes sure I give a slight angle to my spine, and keep my shoulders aligned for a good turn. Thanks for the great video Matt!!!

Best Tip Ever! I just came back from the Driving Range and tried this. It worked! I was hitting much more straighter in my intended directions, with much longer distances, and most of all, with much more ease. Many Thanks, from Brunei.

What a great tip!! Now I know why I hit my driver not on line!! Thanks for the great tip!!! We only had placing in winter and I could never understood why in winter I reach for the ball, cause of the line!! ⛳️🏌🏻‍♀️🇿🇦

Great tip. I tried it today and it helped. I felt more comfortable with my alignment and hit much better shots. Thank you.

Hammer the nail into the back off the ball was the best tip I've got from your channel.... good tips today I'll give them a go next time out

Mr. Fisher, I stumbled upon one of your videos and have to admit, it was the best golf instruction to date for me. Not insulting the other p RT os, it was just that YOUR'S, was fun to watch, informational, made so much more sense, and easy to understand. Thoroughly enjoyed it and have subscribed and seen at least 15-20 more, with more to come Thank you very much, keep up the outstanding work.

Matt I have watched your channel for ages and as always the content is good , I really like your strategy vlogs , you are always understandable and full of enthusiasm , it’s nice to see , thanks mate

There's something satisfying about watching someone pure their clubs ... The sound alone...

Love your high energy. Great tip, never heard that before. I'll have to try that.

Thanks for the tips - I have actually got away from putting a line on my ball but now I am going to try this!

when I watched this a while back I started using it and it does help... thanks... recently I have found I put and got better with no line... I put the blank part of the ball up...

new to golfing and wasn't even aware of using that line on the ball to line up your putt! can't wait to try this out

Interesting. I must try this. I put line on the top all the time.

Love it , so simple yet brilliant! Keep the videos coming 👍

Very interesting. I never considered the line of sight for my golf ball line on a tee or wedge shot.

I'll give it a try... Greatly appreciated! Also, love the alignment stick cover. They were buried in the trunk, now back in the bag :-)

Great tip Matt... I’ve always used the line for putting but not for driving. Trying this on my next round. Thx Ivan

Wow! Things I did not know ! Legal help to make me hit it better ! I am implementing this IMMEDIATELY !

Great vid! It was great seeing you at The Golfholics Tourney 🤙

Great info!!! I dig your videos every time. Keep up the good work!

Got to say never thought of the line on the ball for anything other than putting. Tried this at the driving range today and worked really well. Helped me a lot with correcting my usual fade shot 🏌️‍♂️

You are always full of good tips that are practical for the everyday player. No nonsense. Love your sense of humor as well!

Thanks for the tips, looking forward to trying them out.

Another great tip from Mr. Shortgame....thanks from Nova Scotia!

I always use the line on my balls for putting and I will try these tips as you sugest. I'm sure they will work ⛳😘 .Thanks Matt. You are awesome!!!

Good one. Really good. I've used the line differently with my driver for setting the height of te ball on the tee so the upper part of ball is above top of driver. Could easily do both!!

OMG, Mr. Short Game has given us the best long game tip too :). Thank you!!

Makes perfect sense. Thanks Matt.

Great video your really helping my short game 👍👍👍👍

This guys great, doesn’t talk down to ya like some of the other video guys. He comes on genuine !

I've been watching plenty of golf instruction videos and have never seen this kind of line advice. Will give it a try, though the "short distance in front of you reference point" seems more appealing: the swing pane might still be off even when using an alignment line on the ball.

will try this out next time I play, thanks!

Using a line on the ball has totally transformed my putting. Today I used this on the driving range and it was incredible. Using the line tilted to the side as described allowed me to much more easlily swing along the correct path. Was able to hit it straight, little fads, and draws.

Great tips! Thanks

Brilliant observation, thanks

Thanks for this great tip.

Doing this. Thanks!!!!

That's great info. Thanks pal.

Very very useful, it’s appreciated ！

I've been using the arrows on the ball oriented to the right, I'm a right handed player, to remind/encourage me to seeing from the inside out due to my slice. I think this helps... Sometimes. What I haven't done is rotate the ball towards me after alignment. I'll do that from now on.

Brilliant advice

Good tip. Will try that

Makes a whole lot of sense. Thanks

Nice tip I'll give it a try next time out.

Good stuff here, thanks!

Sweet tip Matt!

Excellent tip!

Keep thm/tips coming.

Love the channel. Just got a Question? Do you check your golf balls for mass center prior to putting on the line? And do balls still have seams? Keep up the good work!!!

Love this!

Great video thanks

Great tip.

Wow.... Great Video.... Thank You

Note too self! Don't use line, it jack's me up too much, that's how I was looking at it but this might work for me. Sometimes all you need is a new perspective, Thank you for the tip.

Good one, I'll give it a try.

You are the man! Thanks again.

Genius tip. Another thing I would have never thought of. I have an older putter.

I use a Check Go when putting my line on the ball. It spins the ball at high revolutions so the ball is balanced when applying your line. I highly recommend it.

Good tips

Really good tip. I line up all my balls (golf) and aim towards the hole. Works every time! Fore Right!!

Glad to see your back is feeling better.

Good tip

Love it!

Wish you would've shown your theory on the line up for the draw with the driver. Great video.

Hey Matt... what is your opion about the triple track system Callaway has

I use a Check N Go. It aligns the cores perfectly and I follow the rules for use off the tee, whether they be for a driver or iron.🐈

Great video!

This guy is probably the best out there for us weekend Warriors

Wow great tip

Brilliant.

I’be been using a line for driving for about 6 months, massive improvement, I hit 90% of fairways. I’m going to try the line on the side to see how it works also, great video👍

On tee shots I put the Sharpie line on my ball at the back side (club side) center of the ball vertically. The line transfers onto the club face so I try to see if I am hitting center on the face. Somedays I tend to be a bit of a toe hitter. Within a couple of shots I can see if it's going to be one of those days and adjust.

Great video and tip! I use line on my ball and had been using it for setup the wrong way as you say it! However I put the line on the ball to mark the sweet spot using a CheckGoPro. My understanding was you line it up when hitting a driver or iron of the tee to maximize the distance and as such alignment on tee needs to be straight! Can you let me know what are your thoughts on this and if I need to align it straight or align it as you have shown? I will definitely try both methods at the course if I find it empty!! Thanks

this video uses a line anywhere on the ball to help align with aiming - just like an alignment stick and no more. The "CheckGo" puts the line in an exact place on the ball - around the circumference of any mis balance centre in the ball. your Q of how to align this balance centre with the aiming is not even considered.

Awesome!! Sir, would it be possible to find a specific phrase in the golf rule book, we are debating on this using line on tee ground issue.

Interesting video.

Matt, do you see any benefit in spinning balls to balance them? Some say it helps make them fly straight.

I like that tip😎‼️

So, regarding the lines what do you think about the new Callaway Triple Track golf balls? Secondly, when hitting your balls in your video, how do you get the red tracking line that shows the path of your ball to appear in the video?

Good morning- great video & tip using the line on the golf ball - awesome - sometimes I use the name of the golf ball as a line- hope that makes sense - all the best - Keith lucero from San Francisco -

Good Idea !!!

That was a good tip...thanks. Which course?

Love it and keeping drinking eXpresso!

At around 3:20 you mentioned that improper focus upon the ball can encourage a coming over the top when striking the ball. This is the second viewing of your video but the first time that I’m truly hearing what you are saying. The other day I realized that with my driver I was not hitting to the sweet spot of the driver. I looked down at the little indicator on top of my TaylorMade M1 and when I focused upon how it truly lined up to the sweet spot I saw that I was hitting more towards the heel by maybe 3/8” inch. I think people believe that the sweet spot on today’s golf club is much larger. But I think the sweet spot is still the size of a dime. Only when we start hitting the true sweet spot can we feel truly balanced in the contact position.

The plastic ball marking stencils give you the opportunity to add a perfectly perpendicular second line. You use one line to aim your putt, you use the second perpendicular line to align your putter face parallel to. Parallel lines are easier for your eye to confirm than the perpendicular putter face to line.

Starting back in the 1930s golfer would always tee the ball with the ball name facing the clubface -- you tried to hit the ball square on the "Titleist." That was because the name was stamped on the ball and players believed that the cover was slightly thinner there and would compress better. On the other hand, the cover was made of two pieces and fused together to make a round ball. Along the line where the cover was fused was the "seam." When you set your ball down you placed it so that the ball would roll on the seam -- and roll straighter. I got this from my grandfather, Grant Halstead who was a life member of the PGA -- (Played in the 1927 Open at Oakmont, etc.) Whether a ball really performed that way, I don't know. I only know that's was golfers believed going forward to the 1970s. Regards.

I believe your grandfather is correct, however the difference is so minuscule the average player would get more out of just practicing more often.

Clever. Personally, I have never used the line.

I always use it putting, never tried it on tee shots. Will try this morning

Put a color dot on ball. It gives you a “single” focal point. And it eliminates your inadvertent miss alignment. Was told this by golf instructor who was told by sports psychologist.

감사합니다.

Love your channel. Not sure why you think the line on the ball should be illegal. Should lines on putters be illegal as well? As the rule say you can mark your ball ball as you wish right....
