Tips to improve your putting skills




By Earl W. Morris

Sometimes you get on the golf course and everything feels great and you are sinking putts like a pro. Other times you feel like you would do just as well kicking the ball across the green and into the hole.

The last time you played, you felt the same way as you do now but nothing seems to be going as well for you, like it did the last time. What do you think happened?

Are you having a bad day or can you just blame it on having bad luck?

Putting is not a game of chance. Sometimes it feels like it is but for you're putting problems you can sum it up with one word.


Tension

You must keep your muscles relaxed while you are putting. If you do this then your shots will become more and more accurate.

Having stiff muscles makes it harder to put and have a smooth follow through. If you are tensing up, this will just make it harder to putt. Having your muscles relaxed will give you a smooth movement and help to sink those putts. Trying to tense up will only cause you problems.

You will notice that when you are having a good day putting, you are confident and will have a smooth, free movement. When you miss an easy putt, you become tense and you try much harder to sink that putt. The tenser you are the more freedom you lose and there goes your putting game.

Making a good shot when you are tense is pretty much near impossible. If you start stiffing up your whole body, you will lose the freedom of being completely relaxed to make a good shot. Yes, you will make some shots but it will not be consistent. You need to stay relaxed.

You can try to copy your favorite Professional golfer but in the end it all boils down to, you need to just relax your muscles and loosen up.

My one word of advice to you is to stay relaxed and everything else will fall into place or should I say into the hole. This will improve your game and you will soon be putting with confidence and enjoy your whole day on the golf course.
