Hey Ranchers! Ready to take your putting game to the next level? Let’s dive into two of the most crucial aspects of putting: distance control and starting your ball on your intended line. With just a few tools and a bit of practice, you can sharpen these skills and start sinking more putts. Here’s how!
When it comes to putting, distance control and your ball’s starting line are everything. Nail these two elements, and you’ll see a dramatic improvement in your game. This drill focuses on both, making it a double whammy of golf greatness.
Distance control is all about consistently finding the sweet spot on your putter. To practice this, set up a “putter gate” using two tees. Place them just wider than your putter head, so you have a narrow path to swing through. The goal? Swing your putter through this gate without hitting the tees. This will help you find that sweet spot every time.
Next, to ensure you’re starting your ball on your intended line, you need to return the putter face to square at impact. Create a “ball gate” with the other two tees, just wider than the ball. Roll your putt through this gate. If you can do this consistently, you’re hitting your intended line perfectly.
1. Practice these steps regularly. By focusing on your putter gate for sweet spot consistency and your ball gate for line accuracy, you’ll gain better control over your putts.
2. With a bit of dedication and some time spent with this drill, you’ll see improvements in no time. So grab those tees, a Sharpie, and hit the putting green!
3. Keep practicing, Ranchers, and watch your scores drop!
4. There you have it! A quick, easy drill to master the art of putting. Remember, practice makes perfect, and with this drill, you’ll be well on your way to becoming a putting pro.
