PuttOUT Devil Ball Face Angle Trainer - Perfect Your Putting

Product Information

It takes a lot of time to dedicate to. You need at least an hour to practice with this and sometimes that is tough to carve out. I plan to use the PuttOut Pressure Trainer, PuttOut Gates, WellPut 1st 10' mat, and an Odyssey 2 Ball Ten Stroke Lab will be my weapon of choice. I expect my putting will be brought to reality as I think I'm a fairly decent putter. I intend to perform the well putt drills without the devil ball to create a baseline from 1, 3, 4, 6, and 10'. Then use the devil ball for those same drills, and finally use a golf ball again. My ball of choice is a ProV1 x. Pro: The final method is the pro level where you place the flat edge facing the putter. Anything less than a perfect strike will be greatly exaggerated. It’s frustrating at times but also very motivating and sure to help every practice session.

I will note that my test is not the best for this tool. It really seems to shine for helping to improve putting in the 8 foot and less range. I have been doing some smaller tests on this and have found that at 5 feet now I am able to make more like 90% of these, sometimes more. Of course this was already a strength of mine, but still a small improvement. For those who struggle with shorter putts, I think you would see bigger improvements in this area. The Putt Out Devil ball is by far the most portable of the putting training aids I have owned. The travel case provided does not take up too much space in the bag and is well-made. The alignment disc and 2 training balls have sustained several putts every day and are still holding strong! This is definitely a GO in terms of durability! Beginner: Newer golfers and high handicappers should start at this level to see how the device works. Instead of the flat edge facing the putter face, it will point toward the target. This will make it closer to rolling like a normal golf ball but still exaggerate push or pulled putts. My initial impression of the Putt Out Devil ball has remained consistent throughout testing. This is one training aid that will definitely bring you down to earth if you think you’re a decent putter. Prior to testing this, I considered my putting ability to be the weakest part of my game. I’m not going to lie, I definitely lost confidence after the first 150 putts (50 with each difficulty level) with the Devil Ball. Even though the majority of putts with the Devil Ball were all over the place, slowly but surely I started to regain confidence in my stroke. It all boils down to how determined you are to improve your putting. This training aid will definitely test your patience but if you persevere through the rough patches, I believe you’ll be better off in the long run. Like most training aids, it is difficult to actually determine their effectiveness. Do they make you a better golfer or, in this case, a better putter?

Longevity

At the PGA Show the PuttOut team member set me up for a four-foot putt using both the Devil Ball and the PuttOut Pressure Trainer. Somehow, I achieved the impossible on my first stroke and hit a perfect putt that ended up

Another reason I thought this device was one of the better ones from the PGA Show was that it works with all types of players. There are three difficulty levels to match your game and give you a great challenge on the greens. One final note is that I have not been able to test my stroke outside given where I live and I will happily update this and give credit where it is due, if I see more dramatic improvement on a real green on in my Shot Scope strokes gained numbers. I just know we can keep you all waiting that long.

While I did lose confidence in putting, the varying difficulties provided by the Devil Ball, showed me something GLARING with my putting stroke! My push miss was consistent regardless of the difficulty level. I tend to struggle with scoring putts (less than 10 ft) and even though my push miss remained, it forced me to rethink my set-up, grip, etc. It was only by making changes minor tweaks to the mechanics of my stroke I was able to see a slight improvement (better than nothing HAHA!). My putts 10 ft and less were starting to roll better and on target. I did notice that there was some translation to the course as well. When I miss putts on the course, I am now able to pinpoint where the mistake is. Off-center strikes with the Devil Ball punish you with the putter version of a slice, and when I push putts, I at least understand now what I need to dial in more. After 600 putts (200 per difficulty level) at the various drill distances recommended by Putt Out as well as the stroke change, I noticed an upward trend. Prior to using the Devil Ball, I would drop 50% of my putts from less than 10 ft. After using the Devil Ball, I am happy to see my drop percentage jump up to 65%. Though it may not seem a lot, I have definitely saved a few 3 putts in the rounds I have played because of the Devil Ball. I feel the more time I get with the Devil Ball, I can only hope I can achieve a 75 to 80 % drop rate! Given the snowy weather I will be working in the 3 to 6 foot range as suggested indoors in the coming months. My test for improvement is a 10 foot putt in my office and have been running 50 putt test lately to get my baseline. The goal will be to improve this indoor testing protocol before being able to get out and test this on the course, hopefully in March but probably April. There are three level as well to the Devil Ball that I look forward into testing more, but I will dive into that more after some testing and first impressions coming soon. I look forward to getting the test rolling (pun intended). Hey Everyone! My name is Jordan and I, like all of you, are masochists when it comes to the game we all love and hate at the same time haha! Next, it offers alignment practicing opportunities. With the simple and effective alignment design, you can train your eyes and, hopefully, improve your putting. Or, at the very least, increase your consistency by starting your putt on the intended target line. PuttOUT Devil Ball: A devilish twist on a putter face-angle training aid. YOUR PUTTOUT DEVIL BALL REVIEWER

It’s a new putting aid from PuttOut that requires you to make a nearly perfect stroke to get it rolling well. It’s nothing like their top-selling training aid, Putt Out, which we’ll also discuss as well. Devil Ball Golf Review You do have the option of dialing down the difficulty slightly. Those numbers above reflect striking a putt on the flat side of the Devil Ball. If you strike the round side (above), the Devil Ball is closer to a normal ball. With three levels of difficulty built into each ball - Beginner, Intermediate & Pro - Devil Ball is suitable for golfers with all levels of experience. The PuttOUT Devil Ball has one purpose – helping you dial in your putter’s face angle at impact. Tough but fun to use. Excellent for adding difficulty to indoor practice. I had a small meltdown with my putting confidence mid season this year, you can read that thread here.

The Putt Out Devil ball is one of the simplest training aid out there. The two balls you receive are well put together and the alignment aid is a nice touch given how important lining up your ball is for working with the aid correctly. The Putt Out logo and alignment aids look great on the ball and while the ball is plastic it does not feel cheap of thrown together. As the materials note care was taken to make sure it weighs the same as a normal ball, so that really helps the feel and look of the ball. To hold both balls you are given a pouch which is made of a fine fabric with a drawstring that easily fits both balls and the alignment tool. The only reason I have deducted a few points in that I already have a could chips in the side of the ball after only these couple months of use. While this does not affect the usefulness of the tool, I would want something like this to hold up a bit better.
