ELIMINATE STROKES BY PUTTING BETTER
ELIMINATE STROKES BY PUTTING BETTER
Chuck Evans – Executive Director of Instruction – Medicus Golf Institute
How important is putting? If you HIT every green in regulation then you are allowed 2 putts per hole. On a par 72 course that’s 36 putts and that’s 50% of your strokes!
In putting there are only two critical factors, path and face angle. Of these two face angle is the most important. Think of it this way, if you have a 30 footer what’s most important – distance or direction? What about a 3 footer? In the 30 footer DISTANCE is more important, not many people stroke a 30 foot putt and hit it 10 feet off line BUT they DO leave it 10 long or short,in the 3 footer DIRECTION is critical.
Reduce The Number Of Putts & Lower Your Scores
Great putters look at a putt, select their starting line then focus on PACE. Bad putters think about direction almost exclusively. Get out of the direction mode and really concentrate on the pace of the putt and you’ll make more of them.
