Similar concept as Playing Lessons with the Pros. At one point Couples stated he would rather miss a putt with a good stroke than to make a putt with a bad stroke. By missing a putt with a good stroke he knew either the line or speed was a bit off. Making a putt with a bad stroke gives you a false sense of security. Once you begin to miss putts it is hard to pin point why, is it speed, line, or stroke related? This reminds me of a interview I watched in the late 80′s early 90′s with Freddy Couples.
