Improving your putting skills in golf requires practice and consistency. To help you become a more confident and accurate putter, here are some effective putting drills you can incorporate into your practice routine:
Gate Drill:
- Set up two tees about the width of your putter head apart, creating a "gate" just in front of the hole.
- Practice putting through the gate to ensure your putter is on the correct path. This drill helps improve your aim and alignment.
Distance Control Drill:
- Place three to five balls at different distances from the hole, starting with short putts and gradually moving farther away.
- Focus on distance control and try to get each putt to stop within a small target area around the hole. This drill helps develop a feel for various distances.
Clock Drill:
- Position three to six balls around the hole, evenly spaced like the numbers on a clock (e.g., 3 feet, 6 feet, 9 feet, 12 feet).
- Putt from each position, aiming to sink all putts consecutively. This drill helps you practice putts from different angles and distances.
