    Hey TT community I was wondering how many of you use the alignment aid on the ball when putting? And Why!!! I myself do not use it, I prefer to use something small like the "i" in titleist .

    Let me know below\/

    I do not use the line. If I take the time to line it up I then feel beholden to it and just concentrate too much on the line rather than just making the putt.

    Exactly this Lance. It gets too technical trying to align putts with a small line on the ball to the line of the hole.. completely over complicates the situation.

    I just play the ball as it lies, or if I'm marking, I replace with the blank side of the ball facing up.

    No aid used on the ball. Like the nice clean white side.

    No lines or markings for me...they are a distraction when I'm focusing on my putt.

    I prefer no alignment marks. Yes I maybe old school,but give me a white ProV1X.

    I don't add any marking with a sharpie or pen but I often use the alignment aid markings on the ball to line up the putt. The new TT logo on the ProV1x is really sharp!

    I use a single line over the side stamp. After lining up the ball from behind, if it doesn't look right over the ball, I back off. It's usually me misaligned to my target line.

    Never use the line. I am a line/sight putter. At address I trace the line from the hole back to the ball then I pick a spot to hit the ball too & putt. If I am standing over the ball the line always looked off from what my eyes were seeing.

    No lines. Just get steady over the ball, focus on the back of the ball, straight back and straight thru.

    I feel the same way. If I use the line I feel like that’s the line I HAVE to use.

    I like to see nothing; I've tried different lines, etc and its not for me.

    I use the arrows and line it up from behind the ball, then when I stand over my putt, I ignore the line and just go with feel, yes I'm six ways of back azzwards haha

    I use it the opposite way sometimes if I'm struggling to get the face square to the target.

    I draw a line over the PRO V1 stamp, but only use it inside 10'. Although I practice with 3 of those Dave Pelz balls with the 3 stripes to make sure I'm making solid contact.

    I like to use the prov1x logo to long up my put so that I can change my focus to the speed of the pit and not have to think about the line.
