Tuesday Putting Tip Number 2

Following on from yesterdays putting tip of developing feel & distance control. The tip below is designed to enhance both.

Drill:

Put the golf ball from various distances with the goal of making the ball kiss the fringe at the edge of the green. Try this drill from various distances. When doing this drill you receive immediate feedback regarding whether you are too long, short or just right. The emphasis here is on touch & feel & not holing putts, this inturn creates positive imagery in your minds eye ie that you have distance control & touch down to a tee.

Monday Putting Tip

This is a good drill to develop feel & distance control .

1: First hit 2-3 putts to no specific target making a stroke.
2: Then hit 2-3 putts to no specific target again but calling the distance you thin the ball has gone without looking up.
3: Hit 2-3 putts again & call the distance out when the putter strikes the ball.

This drill will develop distance & feel awareness going by touch alone. When you can feel & trust a stroke that correlates with your perception your percentages & statistics will improve.

ENJOY.
