\nTom’s Bonus Tip: 6 Putting Tips<\/p>\n
For the sake of simplicity, all advice on swings and drills is provided from a right handed perspective; lefties …. well, you know what to do!<\/p>\n
Here are a 6 short but sweet putting tips to work into your game.
\nAdopt a firm, comfortable stance that allows your stroke to start your putts on your aimline every time. <\/p>\n
Once your wrists are set, freeze them. I teach a setup that includes a flat left wrist, because most untrained players actually have a tiny left wrist flip at impact in their putting stroke. This will make your distance control very erratic on long putts. If you prefer to set up with a cupped left wrist, make sure it stays firm through the stroke – but I’m going on record saying that the flat left wrist is better for the average golfer.<\/p>\n
Keep your head absolutely still from the start through the finish of your stroke.<\/p>\n
Power the stroke with your shoulders only, a pendulum motion is best.<\/p>\n
For lag putts, utilize your natural stroke, whether it’s arcing or straight back and straight through.<\/p>\n
For very short putts, utilize a straight back and straight through stroke, no exceptions. Crouch a little more over the ball, grip lower on the putter, straight back and straight through stroke, and listen for the ball to drop – don’t watch it drop.
\nLove your practice, enjoy your golf,<\/p>\n
