5 Golf Putting Tips

These golf putting Tips could help overcome the frustration of consistently wasting shots on the green and restore a confidence in your golf to see your score tumble.

Isn't it amazing that you can easily take 2-3 shots to get to the green on a par 4 yet still take more than 3 shots to sink the ball. Overshooting your pars is a sure-fire way to sky rocket your score and leave you feeling like you don't want to play another game!

Next time you are going for a game of golf, consider incorporating these golf putting tips into your game:

1. Arrive at the golf course 10 minutes early. Use this extra time to sink some puts on the practice green. You will then have an idea what conditions the greens will be in for that time of day. golf greens perform very differently under different conditions.
2. Relax. The hard part is over. You have made it to the green. Take you time to look over the green and create a putting plan to get your ball in the hole. Think about how you are going to make your '2 puts'.
3. Treat every put the same. Unlike your other clubs, virtually every put will be taken with the same stance. Practice your stance until you don't need to think about it. Use the same stance and set up for every shot.
4. Create a putting procedure. This extends from the last point. Create a mental list of what you do when you arrive at the green and how you address the ball for every shot. Do you take your glove off. Where do you put the rest of your clubs. Do you squat down to asses the slope of the green. Don't create surprises for yourself. Make every green the same as the last.
5. Slow down. There is no need to hurry on the green. Remember to go through your putting sequence on each shot.

Remember that for such a seemingly simple part of the game, putting can be many golfers biggest problem. Maybe because is should be simple and golfers are too relaxed about paying specific attention to this part of their game.

If you work hard at your putting, there is no reason why you could not shave 7-10 stroke off your game easily.
