Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at sales@puttingalley.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Absolutely. And not just better - much better! Here's why:
- It will narrow your putter face angle through repetition
- That builds a stroke for precise control on ball starting direction
- Which builds confidence in putting
- That allows you to practice better at a putting green to concentrate on speed and break at different distances to make all putts
You MUST separate your stroke practice from your green practice. Consider getting advice from a professional who can teach stroke mechanics and putting setup.
Not as much as you think. Consider these points:
- With the embedded leveler you can easily move it anywhere in your home.
- If you want to rebuild your stroke it could take some time, so try 30-minute intervals while watching TV. Some people do it while on the phone!
- Play a game of personal best "putts in a row" to have fun that will help pass time
- As you understand your stroke small refresher bursts of 5 minutes will remind you of some feeling that works better. Many people use it just before leaving the house to play golf or before heading to a practice green.
We can remind you that about 84% of people who purchased a Putting Alley continue to use it after 5 years. It's on the floor, probably with a putter and ball close by.
Yes!! From side to side, it has to be as level as possible, because:
- If it's not level you introduce break in the putt, one of the green variables you are trying to avoid.
- By being level, you establish a consistent, repeatable process that is required to know your stroke is getting better.
- The ability to level it means you can easily move it anywhere in your home or office, even for a short period of time.
- Some people play competitive games, either in person together or by distance, of who makes the most putts in a row. Having the ability to level each device the same way eliminates argument of the playing surface.
It took a rather long time to design a level that was secure from the impact of the golf ball and could be seen on either side and then include a safe and easy way to adjust it. It's a game changer.
Good question, and begs a little history of development:
- First, there are two Alleys because we figured out a design that allowed one on either side of the same device, which allowed a wider range of challenge.
- Twenty-seven inches was picked specifically because that is a couple inches "outside the leather" or "gimme" range. It's the "knee-knocker" range that counts as much as the 300-yard drive.
- The two widths associated with 27 inches were chosen to match up to some key putting lengths. The one-inch side provides the same accuracy required to hole a 10-foot putt. The one-half inch provides the accuracy required to hole out a 20-foot putt. Just getting the starting line correct on these longer putts will improve hole out percentage.
So, while you are building confidence to make ALL small putts, you are greatly improving your odds of holing out longer putts. Now go find a green and work on speed and break.
The Original Putting Alley front end turned out to be a little unstable, particularly for novice golfers who had some issue in getting the ball to sit quickly for a putt. So, we redesigned a new front end that not only provides an easier and quicker way to load the ball but adds more stability and accuracy, so the ball is always on a pinpoint location.

The Putting Alley is an easy training aid to love: simple to use, durable, effective, inexpensive, and portable. For people who struggle with short putts, I think The Putting Alley is a good way to not only improve your stroke, but to build up your confidence. For players of all ability levels, the Putting Alley offers a chance to work on the most important part of the game when you don't have time to get to the practice green.

Starting out with the 1″ side I quickly realized that I had my putter face slightly closed because I was pulling every single putt. The Putting Alley clearly showed this to me because with each putt the ball would roll half way down the alley then fall off of the rail on the inside edge. Because there is less room for error, the Putting Alley not only improves your stroke but also your concentration since any mistake will result in the ball not reaching the end of the alley. Hence, setting up little games such as seeing how many in a row you can make will really improve your mental focus.

So here is the beauty of this training aid: the folks at the Putting Alley say rolling a pure putt on the 1″ side is equivalent of rolling a 10 foot putt and the 1/2″ side is equivalent of a 20 foot putt. The device is indestructible. Therefore, you can actually practice longer putts with just a small training aide. Moreover, rolling putts over and over again gives you great confidence when you have to face those 2 foot putts during your weekend skins game.

The Putting Alley is a terrific tool for practicing your putting stroke. It consists of a hard plastic putting surface with a narrow raised surface in the center. The raised surface on one side is a half an inch wide, and an inch on the other side. The goal of the exercise is to deliver the ball to the top area at the end without having the ball fall into the gutters on the sides. I’ve practiced with the Alley for a couple of weeks and think that I have straightened out my stroke quite a bit. I have always been a good putter, but if I continue practicing with this over the winter, I think I will be positively deadly. Grade: A

This practice aid really has improved my putting! It make you square the face at impact! You get better roll and more putts on line. I developed a new putting style (set my wrist forward and don't let the putter head past my hands on the follow through) and this has transitioned directly to the course! I made 4 birdy putts over 12' in the first round. I'm even buying one for my brother.

This is a great putting trainer!!! The pro at our club recommended it to me, and I can see why. It forces you to concentrate on small changes to your putting stroke, and then to consistently apply them. It can absolutely help you to learn to hit the ball square to the target. You get direct feedback by whether the ball stays on the raised strip in the middle of the Alley. A tip my pro gave me is to elevate the cup-end of the Alley with a block or DVD boxes so that it's about 4 inches higher than the other end, and to only hit the ball hard enough to have the ball reach the cup end. The point is that the more gently you hit the ball, the harder it is to keep it on the raised strip. I can't wait to see how this translates to real putting next season! (Putting Alley note - always make sure it's level from side to side.)

Even Mr. Breed likes the yardstick drill. How long will it take to place 5 balls on the stick? Time for a commercial!
Looks like the practice balls are 20 feet away. Most of the practice time is spent chasing balls.

Once you purchase, you probably won't tell anyone
We'll say it here, way at the bottom of the website.
When you buy a Putting Alley, we'll want to call you and find out how you heard about us (we've sold many thousands but really haven't marketed it over the last 10 years). In those cases, chances are you heard about it quietly from a golf buddy who doesn't really want to talk about it, because, well, (s)he's gotten good at putting and it's showing.
