Get the right speed on the putting green
By SwingFix.com staff
There's an old saying in golf: If the ball doesn't get to the hole, it can't go in. Often you hear this wisdom stated more sarcastically as, "Short putts almost never drop."
Almost nothing in the game is more frustrating than having the line of a putt nailed, but coming up short.
In this swing tip video, SwingFix instructor Justin Bruton offers up a simple but effective pre-round drill for finding the right speed for your putts. Place a club a couple feet behind the hole and roll your putts past the hole but not as far as the club.
Simple. Easy. And a sure-fire way to lower your frustration level on the greens.
