Putter Fitting - Lie Angle

Among the Putter fitting characteristics most over-looked is the "lie angle". Many times I will look at Player at putt set-up and see the toe off the ground or the heel off the ground. Both are not good and can cause the toe or heel to hit the ground first and deflect the putter left or right.

Here is a simple way to check your Putter Lie-angle. Set up as if you were ready to put. Have a friend slide a 3 x5 card under the toe and heel until they just touch the putter sole. If they are not equal distance from the center of the putter you have a bad Lie and need to get the Putter adjusted.
