Coachingolf’s rules of Putting

• Aim is the first fundamental of Putting
• On short breaking put, hit it firm enough to take the slope out of it
• The best putters have three things in common: good green reading, starting the ball on line and speed control
• Face angle determines 83% of the starting line while putter path direction determines 17%. In other words, a square face angle is more important to starting putts on line than putter path
• The putting stroke should be executed in one piece so that the putter is nothing more than an extension of the arms
• The putting system should be built into a repetitive routine to maximize consistency and help block out negative thoughts
