Essential Putting Tips

Putting is a very important moment on every golf hole. It signals the end of the hole and subsequently it will signal whether it was a good hole or a hole to forget.

Some people prefer a smaller green on which to make their putt, but others like the longer greens so that they can really try their luck at securing a twenty-five yard putt.

Putts that are between 4 and 6 feet in length are the ones that we expect to sink all the time. But even pros have not made those putts before, which means the average golfer shouldn't be bothered if he misses that 5 foot putt. But of course your success rate will increase with practice--and with it, your score for each hole will shrink, making more and more competitive as you train.

It is important to practice putting; and one best ways to do this is to start small. Start with straight putts because they will teach you the basics of putting. For instance, you will soon learn that if you focus on the putting, it will help you get more of a feel for the putter.

Try getting about 10 golf balls lined up about four feet from the hole; and just try putting them. You will probably miss a few initially, but continue putting until you can get every golf ball in the hole every single time.

When you can do this easily, start trying longer putts.

The other benefit about learning to putt is that you will build confidence with each putt and consequently will have less fear about putting from that distance. You may even want to price putting in your own home, where you feel most comfortable. This might be a good idea if you feel you need to build confidence.
