Personalized Golf Gifts As Well As Tips On How To Get The Correct Putting Stroke

By Raymond R. Chase


The real objective of the golf is to get the ball into the cup. One can drive well and even approach well and as important as these two elements are to the game, they are nothing if one cannot get the ball into its desired destination.

Several different methods can give the energy needed to attain a putting stroke but that doesn't mean that all of it are equally effective. The best style that can give the power emanates from the body Once you've learned to use your body properly the hands will naturally fall in line that will give you a natural direction to control and guide the club. The combined power of using the body and hand for control will make drives that are long and straight and also produce accurate iron shots & resounding fairway woods.

Let us stop and examine this for a moment. If you are able to achieve control and accuracy with the technique at a range of 200 or more yards, does it not make sense that this same technique will provide even more control and greater accuracy at a range that is ten feet or less? A similar requirements of direction and distance are important on every putt. If you're able to reach that with similar control on long shots, it then only makes sense that you can be able to utilize the same approach and style in your short shots.

The truth is that the objective in putting is the same objective in any other shot. And that's the distance with the direction.

Perhaps the most important key to putting is the ability to gauge the speed of the green. Generally a putt will not be driven off the line. Most of the time trouble happens when the putt falls short by six feet and the golfer is forced to overshot the cup by few feet on the following stroke.

When you use the routine that have previously established this will not happen as it established the body control needed to attain the putting stroke.

Before moving on, it is important to note that in order to avoid any tension in the hands which would destroy this necessary control it is important to make sure your little finger is not resting on the club. It was emphasized earlier but let's get into details more.

The smallest finger should never be resting on the club. It will make too much tension. Instead, take the little finger off the club and curl it under. This position brings the hands together and make a leverage action that makes the desired body action. In most instances when a short putt is missed it winds up on the left side of the cup. It's because the player is invariably holding his body still. When the hands move past the body there's a natural inclination for the hands to turn and actually roll the putter on the left. In order to combat this problem, it is necessary to understand to pull the club across the line of the putt from the outside inward. You must draw the club across the ball just like you are attempting to produce a slice; efficiently cutting across the ball. This can actually maintain the putter square to the line of the shot. Begin by applying this to short two foot putts and then steadily apply it on longer puts. You'll be surprised at how square the putter blade will continue to be.
