The Putting Habit I Wish I Learned Years Ago
STRUGGLING WITH DISTANCE CONTROL OR MISSING SHORT PUTTS?
If your putting stroke suddenly feels unreliable, you’re three-putting too often or you’ve lost confidence over those 3–6 foot putts, this lesson will help. I’m going to show you the simple 3-step putting routine I use to improve distance control, hole more putts and get my confidence back on the greens.
Putting has always been one of the strongest parts of my game, but recently something changed. My distance control disappeared on fast greens, I started missing short putts and suddenly I was three-putting two or three times a round.
Whenever that happens, I go back to a simple system a mentor taught me many years ago.
And it works every time.
In this video, I explain:
• The simple putting setup check that allows your putter to swing naturally
• Why your head and body position can cause pulls without you realising
• How centre-face contact dramatically improves putting distance control
• A simple drill to help you consistently strike the middle of the putter
• Why I always aim the putter BEFORE setting my body
• The putting routine I use to stop thinking technically on the golf course
• How visualisation can help you develop better pace and feel
• My “guessing game” drill for learning the speed of unfamiliar greens
• How to practise short breaking putts so you become more instinctive under pressure
The goal isn’t to create a complicated putting stroke.
It’s the opposite.
I want you to build a simple setup, learn to strike the centre of the putter face and then trust your instincts when you’re standing over the ball.
Because great putting isn’t about consciously controlling how far the putter moves back and through.
Eventually it should feel as natural as throwing a ball to someone.
