Tom Stickney – A Top 100 Golf Teacher

In this week's tip I'd like to talk to you about how to fine tune your feel. You know a lot of times on the greens people tend to lose their way they lose their feel and they don't really know what to do. So when you go back to the putting green here's how you're going to work on your feel. I have about a 10, 15 foot putt here it's got a low speed little down hill. What I'm going to do is I'm a set up to my putter and I'm going to close my eyes. When I close my eyes what I'm going to do is I'm hit the spot and I'm going to kind of guess where that ball hit up.

So I think that ball was short and on the left side of the hole and you can see that ball was short on the right side of the hole. If I continue to repeat this drill over and over it gives me a good way to feel what is going through the putter into my hands and into my brain. This fine tuning of the feel will help you to get better on the greens and to be able to put your putts where you want to be at the speed you want to and then you'll make more putts in the end.
