I have read alot of threads in here now and I have seen a pattern emerging.
I'm really pleased to see lots of people having lessons and enjoying their golf more as a result.
It's great to go down to the range and hit 100 balls every day, but if you dont know what to practice, are you going to get better?
There are a few who still think the nice new shiny bats are going to cure the slice, hook, duff or give an extra 20 yds, or the new putter is going to hole everything, however lots have a different attitude.
KenA spoke of having a putting lesson and lost 8-10 shots per round.
Who else wants to knock 8-10 shots off their score?
Harrymonk confessed to being unable to putt with anything.
Is it the putters fault or the puttee?
I'd like to ask the forumers if you practice youre putting and if so, what do you practice?
What are the basic fundamentals of putting?
Hopefully one or all of the below
Distance
direction
quiet wrists
still lower half
good tempo
tick tock
gentle acceleration
shoulders tilting, not turning
soft grip
no peeking
relaxed arms
pre-shot routine
head still
Enough yet?
For those of you who think you cant improve your putting, good luck.
For the humans out there, please take putting seriously, after all, it is half of the score
