Gripping your putter and the ruler, get in your natural putting stance. When you are in the correct stance, your hands should hang from under your shoulders with a gentle bend in the lower back. Maintaining your stance adjust your distance from the golf ball so that your eyes are directly over the golf ball. Once you are in your putting stance, slide the ruler up into your belly and note how many inches must be added to your putter to get the correct belly putter length. My putter is 35" long and the extended ruler length is 8" so the belly putter should be 35" + 8" or 43" long.
