Frank Hannigan dissects the USGA's pathetic distance failures

As far the OP question? The anchor rule will not harm my game. I have owned many a putter in my time, including two belly putters. What I found was that when I was going through the dreaded 'yips', the belly putter would help for a short time, but eventually my brain would case me to miss again

If they ever rule out 'swing oil' then I would be in trouble!

Thanks for posting the link to Frank Hannigan's letter. It pretty well sums up the USGA'S pathetic failures.
