The foolproof 'Pencil Grip' putting technique that is taking the golf world by storm

Championships are won and lost on the putting green, and one of the most repeated phrases after a disappointing round of golf is 'If only I'd holed my putts'. But there is a simple way to dramatically improve your 'pressure putt' performance: the Trevillion Pencil Grip, which has taken off in 2017.

Renowned sports artist Paul Trevillion is the inventor of this uniquely effective split-hand technique. He describes the pencil grip, which he spent four decades refining, as the 'art' of putting: you aim at the hole and draw a straight line. As he explains: 'Too often on TV you hear, "He pushed the putt". . . but an artist never pushes a pencil.'

In The Art of Putting, Paul Trevillion discusses the evolution of putting methods and reveals the secret of his technique with honesty and humour. Instructive, entertaining, practical, unique and effective, this book is one of the soundest investments any golfer can make to ensure that they never miss a 4-foot putt.
