Matt Baker on the "M-System" for Building a Better Golf-Swing

Dan Landman is the founder of Spoiler Golf and the inventor of the Spoiler OG Putter.
 The idea for Spoiler Golf came from putting with a wedge and, by extension, learning how pure the ball rolled from the leading edge of a Wedge vs the traditional “flat face” of a putter. Dan and Spoiler Golf believe a better roll of the golf ball unlocks a better putting experience, and so they set out to change the face of putting for everybody.
 Dan's suspicion of a purer roll of the ball coming off the leading edge of a club vs the face of a putter was confirmed with research measuring the skid and roll of golf ball.  He and his engineer/designer doubled down on their efforts and built a number of "Leading Edge" putters.  Eventually after much trial and error they settled on the Spoiler OG - a putter where form truly met function.
 Dan explains the Leading Edge technology as he introduces the Spoiler Putter.  He also addresses:
  
The importance of putting and the role it plays in lowering scores
 How the Leading Edge technology works
 How Leading Edge technology enhances focus and concentration on the process of excecution on the greens
 Impact location for success in distance control and accuracy 
 Mitigating the yips with Leading Edge technology, and
 How the Spoiler gives instant feedback for quicker, more purpose-driven learning.

The folks at L.A.B. Golf believe that most golfers are using putters that aren’t helping them putt better. In fact, they believe that their putter styles are working against them.
 Sam Hahn, the founder of L.A.B. Golf joins #OntheMark to talk with Mark Immelman about the L.A.B. Golf putters and how their Lie Angle Balance technology can help golfers improve their putting strokes and make more putts.

 He also talks about:
  
The hallmark of great putting - returning the putter face to “square” at impact, or perpendicular to the target line and how LAB putters make that easier.
 The research showing that 83% of a putt’s starting direction is influenced by the direction of the putter face at impact.
 What is Lie Angle Balance Technology and the design of LAB putters with elements like Weighting, Shaft design and angle, Grip alignment and style.
 The influence of Torque in the putting stroke, and on the putter face, and the elements in the LAB putters that reduce torque for more control.
 "Torque Hangover" in putting and grip pressure for putter face control.
 How Lie Angle Balance (L.A.B.) Technology makes it effortless for golfers to deliver a square putter face at impact.
 How Lie Angle Balance allows a golfer to make a natural stroke with less mechanical effort to keep maintain an accurate Swing Path.

Briston Peterson is the founder of On Point Golf.  On Point manufactures the revolutionary 3D domed Golf Ball Marker.
 The On Point Marker is designed to improve your Spatial Acuity which in turn leads to improvements in green-reading, aim and alignment, and eventually more holed putts.
 The reason for the success of the marker is that human being are 3D creatures, living in a 3D world, but our eyes can show us only two dimensions.  The On Point 3D Marker bridges that gap and allows a golfer to dial-in his/her focus and intensely concentrate, creating the effect of "tunnel vision" which enhances the golfer's confidence on the greens.
  Briston joins #OntheMark to introduce the marker, illustrate how it works, and dive into the mechanics of how it helps a golfer to improve his/her stereoscopic vision for better alignment and the commensurate marginal gains that promotes.
 He also shares a putting tip from On Point Ambassador, US Open champion Jim Furyk. 
 Other putting improvement concepts include:
  
Improvements in Putting Speed and Lines
 Charting Marginal Gains for Confidence
 The Value of Instinct and the "First Impression" in Green Reading, and
