GOLF TIP OF THE MONTH

This month’s tip will focus your game to putting. There are several drills that you can do very easily to improve your chances at making more putts. Practice these drills and you will increase your ability to roll the ball into the hole.

Drill #1 – Find a vacant area of the green and place a tee in the ground. Move twenty feet away and place another tee. Practice putting from one tee to the other. This drill narrows your focus and allows you to concentrate on distance control and accuracy.

Drill #2 – Place a tee in the ground fifteen feet away from a hole. Place another tee one grip length past the hole. Practice putting the ball between the front edge of the hole and the tee beyond the hole. This will lead to more aggressive putting which will guarantee more made putts.

Drill #3 – Align two clubs towards a hole about ten feet away. Position the clubs apart with enough distance to fit your putter. Practice without a ball, swinging between the two clubs, without hitting the two clubs. Then put a ball between the clubs and try the same drill. You will be amazed at how consistent your stroke will become if you spend a little time with this drill.

Good luck and I hope that you will work to improve your game this winter. I have assembled an archive of tips on my blog www.bobschade.blogspot.com and of course my website www.bobschade.com is a great resource to help you play better golf. Again good luck and good golfing!
