When it comes to Putting we need to be realistic in our expectations; even the Professionals on Tour only make 50% from 6 feet… That said, think – or even better, record – how many putts do you make from 6 feet.   Now imagine how many more you’d make if the cup was 50% bigger,  because that’s the margin you’re giving away if you aren’t aligning yourself properly over your putts.

It’s incredible, but true; and a test conducted recently by a PGA Professional backs this up. Using just a laser pointer and some duct tape, he challenged the golfers who walked off the 18th green on one fateful competition day to aim at a hole from ten feet away. Over 70% of those tested couldn’t do it!!!

Bottom line, reality is not what the TV cameras show.  They show players dropping in putts from all over the green.  It’s like a highlight reel!!!  Find  a grip and putting stroke you are comfortable with, then practice, practice, practice!!!

Enjoy
