Lefties Only Golf Tip: Here is five simple checkpoints that can MOT your putting game, to make you hole more putts out in the golf course. The first thing I would like to see you do when you get to the putting green, is just make you are relaxed. Tension is a bit of a killer, when you are putting and tension would normally manifest itself in grip pressure. So when you are standing over the putt, just make sure you have got nice relaxed hands that will help the club move nicely and smoothly, anything you feel grip pressures seeping into your game, you know you are going to struggle with your putting.
