After the ball on the green, it's time to seal the deal. Get down in two putts, again, if you're really close. Easier said than done, one might say. Simply done, I say, if you take the right approach.
There are two types of putts recreational golfers need to pay attention to in order not to leave strokes on the green. One of them is very short putt - four legs and book another approach putt - twenty to forty feet. Get the first and the second one close, and you'll have a good day on the green.
very short putts are the ones that are left over after the chip or putt approach. They make it a question of getting your top-down, or your two putt green. As much as we like to have a 9-inch Tap-ins, we must be honest with yourself. The next few times to play, to monitor how long putts after the chips are, and how long your second putts when the first of over twenty feet. You will see how important these little ones are.
be a reliable short putter is mostly a matter of mechanics. In most cases, will not be enough to break around the hole that you can not play the putt to go straight in. you can still play the ball slightly to the left or right, but still be aiming somewhere in the hole.
Step behind the putt putt and imagine going to see him in. In his mind the image to direct everything you do. Choose a place, about three inches in front of the ball on the line that goes into the hole. Step around to the ball and the line to square the three-inch line.
Now, forget the hole and putt the ball along the line. Do not be afraid to putt a little pace. Babying putt into the hole is a good way to leave it short or see drift off to one side or the other.
long approach putts are all a matter of speed. If you have an unusual undulating between the ball and the hole, all you need to do to get the line to see whether the ball will turn to the right or left. Get more complicated than that. Getting the right gear that will keep the ball close.
Knowing how difficult it is to hit a long putt is a matter of practice and feel. In the practice green, take a stroke that you think, long putt, somewhere in the 20 - to 40-foot range. Hit five putts with the same stroke, not paying attention to how the ball rolling. When you are finished, all putts must be near the same distance. Now step away from, and you have calibrated at a certain distance putt on the green with a stroke that makes physical sense for you. You now know how to hit the putt to go to X feet each time.
Let's say your comfort stroke the ball 30 feet. Now learn how to change a stroke to hit the ball 20 yards and hit 40 feet. Remember the feeling of these three actions, in terms of what your body feels like when you hit them.
In order that the calibrated moves to work for you on the trail, do not think about sinking a long putt. Consider leaving it near the hole. Just that. If you do, you will have pins left over, and if your approach putts are always around the hole, sometimes they will go in!
