Unfortunately it is only around 20% of the mishits that are towards the heel and 22% - with the alternative setup - that is towards the toe. If all mishits were 100 % on the toe or heel I would probably favor the heel tendency too, and perhaps use the "toe setup" on downhill putts. Obviously the mishits are not on the heel or the toe, just a few mm towards either. My initial reaction was that it might not matter with todays high MOI putters with face balance and whatnot. If that was the case the toe mishits might be preferable since I hit that a tad more consistently than the heel mishits, the idea being that a consistent mishit is easier to predict. The longer the putt the more likely I am to mishit it. Thus a 20 footer would be aimed a little long to the left of the hole, if I hit it sweet I would end up two feet long and to the left, and if I mishit it towards the toe - a 22% possibility - I might end up a foot short and slightly to the left. In either case it ought to be a safe two putt. Now if my statistical analysis holds under actual playing conditions, I would be hitting 8% of those putts towards the heel and would probably end up three feet to the left, put perhaps at the intended length, although a little more difficult second putt I should be able to make nine of those. The end result should be 1 % three putts and maybe a few one-putts. All in all it would result in fewer putts. My ambitions is simply to be a better putter anyway I can.
Obviously I would prefer to have a stroke that resultet in 95% hits on the sweet-spot, realistically that is unfortunately not going to happen. Thus I aim to get the best result with what I've got. And when I discovered the tendencies towards heel and toe mishits with the different setups I got curious as to how that may be usable information in my putting strategy.
