Simple Putting Techniques
Posture is so important in putting and we want to get ourselves in the best posture, the right ball position, the right bend in our elbows, and the right distance from the ball.
So, let’s set up to the ball and lower your scores with these simple putting techniques.
What I see so many times in putting by a lot of amateur golfers, it’s they get really long in their arms and that makes the ball and the putter wobble around.
So, we want to get a nice bend in the elbows, have them close to the side, and a nice tilt over from the top. If you’re too far away from the golf ball, the putter will have a tendency to be more rounded. And if you’re too close to the golf ball, it would go straight back and straight through.
So, everybody’s pretty much different in this on-the-ball position. So, you need to go see your PGA or LPGA golf professional that you really trust that it knows what they’re doing and teaching golf a nice stroke.
Work with your PGA or LPGA professional on these simple putting techniques, get your distance from the golf ball better get the ball position better work on your stroke being constant, same back and through.
This is the best way to shave strokes off your scorecard.
