Struggling to roll it pure? Try a method used by PGA Tour players, including Cameron Smith and Sungjae Im. 

Draw a line on your ball, but rather than aligning it at the target, set it parallel to the ground, so it acts as your ball’s equator. With this visual in place, your goal is to strike the ball below this equator and stroke up. 

That’s what gets the ball rolling pure, with more topspin and less skid. If it works for the pros, it’ll work for you.
