How do you stop putts lipping out. All of my 5-10 foot putts are lipping out.

8/14/2009 11:29:02 AM A lip out is usually caused by a putt that is slightly off center and has too much pace. Its forward momentum causes it to follow around the upper edge of the cup and it stays up instead of dropping in toward the center of the cup. The pace of your putt is too strong for gravity to help you with the putt dropping. Gravity is actually very weak in reality. The same principle applies to the ride at the state fair where the floor drops out as you are spinning around and around in the thing, the faster it goes the more likely you are to stay up. If the floor did not come back up after it slows down you would fall through the floor, not a fun ride. Slow the pace down on your putt and it falls into the cup instead of staying up and out. Or hit it dead center, you can hit them harder if they are dead in the heart of the cup.in toward the center of the cup.
