My friends damnable ability to hole out from anywhere on any surface has made me wonder about negative loft. He positions the ball at or near low point id say, hits it above the equator, his putter head somewhat hovered at address, his left hand fully un cocked so it looks high , arched, his wedges set, his right shoulder powers it all but on a very flat plane. He gathers up the lag in his #3 and sustains it all the way through. He doest think about weight at all ahead of time, he just steps up to it, hangs his wedges, takes a little practice swing to feel some lag collect, not even the right amount of lag, and then away he goes. An intuitive application of lag pressure. He likens it to tossing paper balls into a waste paper basket. It seems more horizontal hinging than angled. Ill have to look more closely. A hook faced old Ping Anser, a ton of deloft and a little chuckle to himself.
We play in a local muny club championship every year. I'm normally in total shock on the super slow and bumpy greens. He on the other hand is just chuckling to himself. Draino. "Yes, sir! Chuckle chuckle"
