What is a typical advantage of the left-hand low putting grip?

A typical advantage of the left-hand low putting grip is that it helps prevent the left wrist from collapsing during the forward stroke. This grip position stabilizes the wrists and encourages a more consistent and controlled stroke, which can result in improved accuracy and distance control. By keeping the left wrist in a more neutral position throughout the stroke, the golfer can maintain better alignment and reduce the risk of mis-hits caused by inconsistent wrist motion. This stability is particularly beneficial for maintaining a smooth, pendulum-like stroke, which is essential for effective putting.

In contrast, while faster clubhead speed, a specific angle of approach, or longer stroke size might be desirable in certain contexts, they do not directly relate to the primary benefits associated with the left-hand low grip style.
