Indoor Practice Series – Keep Your Stroke On Line



What you need:
  • ·         Putter
  • ·         One other club or yard stick or broom etc.
Lay a club on the ground as seen in the picture and set up your putter on the shaft of the club, then make your stroke. Immediately you will be able to tell if your stroke gets off line. Spend a few minutes each day working on maintaining a stroke that stays on the club you’ve laid down.

It won’t be long and you’ll soon start making more putts!


Note :::: There are 2 basic types of putting strokes, the “Straight back/Straight Through” stroke & the “Arc” stroke. Both can be effective but getting the most out of your stroke will usually depend on your posture. The drill mentioned here is for golfers who subscribe to a straight back/straight through philosophy. If you’re standing too upright and trying to putt straight back/through or if your posture is more tilted and you’re trying to use the arc method you may want to re-adjust your posture to be more conducive to the style you’re trying to use. It could be the difference in making more putts! Good Luck!
