TRIAL, ERROR AND SUCCESS
Simple drills utilizing the process of trial and error will help you to improve the accuracy of your choice of spot.
Suppose you guess wrong? Use that information to hit another practice putt.
Let’s say you made a great stroke but just chose the wrong “spot” to putt at. How far left or right did you miss? How far past or short of the cup the putt finished will help you choose a better spot to aim at. For instance, if the putt finished past the cup five feet you would move your imaginary spot three feet closer to you (Five feet minus two feet equals 3 feet)
Utilizing the following drills, along with practice with a “Putting Arc” to groove your stroke, you will be ready to putt consistently and score well.
Why the putting arc? It is an extremely efficient use of time to groove your stroke. Simply use the arc two or three minutes two or three times per week. Using an “Anser” shaped putter, where the heel of the putter is perpendicular to the face, will ensure the face stays square to the target during your stroke. I use my arc on the carpet at home. Using the arc will improve your contact, the length of your stroke, and your clubface control.
