Golf Putting Stroke – Now You Can Cut Down Your Golf Putting Stroke
Golf Putting Stroke – Now You Can Cut Down Your Putting Stroke
To reduce the chances of 3 putts on a hole and missing very short putts under two feet in length, simply practice these putting stroke steps:
If you may be missing the hole to the right or left, opening or closing the face of the putter head at impact, you need to get the putter swinging straight back and forth on short putts. Pick a flat spot on your practice green and line up some quarters or other coins on either side of the hole for about 12 inches, just like runway lights at an airport.
The coins should be about ¼ of an inch wider than the width of your putter head, on either side. It would look something like this photograph: Now, with your ball just outside this one-foot runway,
your goal is to putt the ball through the line of quarters without touching any.
When you can do this ten times in a row, you’re doing well. In all likelihood, they will all go in the hole but, if they don’t, it’s okay. This exercise is just to stroke the ball purely so that you do not hit any of the coins. You can also practice this putting stroke at home on your carpet and putt into a glass, or a plastic (or aluminum) putting cup, available at any store.
I’ll bet you’re saying, "why practice this putting stroke at all?" The reason for the coins (or tees if you prefer) is to let your eyes see more of a tunnel or line to the hole. Do it enough times and your mind will start seeing this line when you're really playing on the course. Crazy, but true!
