Which hand leads in putting?
1
If you tend to push putts right, you may want to feel a touch more right-hand release. Watch for how the butt of the grip works as you go through. If you’re a little bit right-hand dominant, the butt will point more at the belt buckle going through and that means the putter is releasing.

If you tend to pull putts left, you may want to feel like you lead a bit more with your left hand to keep the putter face squarer through impact. Keep your left hand a bit firmer. When this hand leads more, you’ll see the butt point more at the left hip with the face being held more square. 3
A simple gate drill, as above, will show you if your ball is hitting the right-hand or left-hand tee, indicating a tendency to push or pull your putts respectively. Depending on your tendencies, you can then try using either a more dominant right hand or more dominant left hand.
