I sometimes have trouble squaring the face on impact as well as judging pace. I have a slight arcing stroke.

My usual putting stroke involves equal length backswing and follow through but a friend suggested to me that I could shorten my backswing and then accelerate and have a longer follow through. It was argued this technique would make it easier to square the face at impact and hopefully judge pace better.

I am interested in what others have to say about both techniques and maybe tips to help.

Thanks!
