If you have completed the drill from the previous video where we talked about having 50 balls from one putters length away from the hole. We talked about trying to hole balls more than 80 percent so 40 balls or more is going to be okay less than 40 or 80 percent is going to serve up as a problem. Cause they're on the golf course isn't going to be good enough to keep your skills ticking along the problems are you could be looking up too early or having too long a back Strike and let me explain both of those things individually to looking up too early as a kind of classic nervous 3 foot. So you've got this little 3 foot putt from here and I golfer that tends to look up and follow through will often pull the ball down the left hand side. So eventually in the body and look to see whether it went in all in one go instead of making a smooth stroke into the middle and then looking up or actually listening for the ball to go and really from this. So the 3 foot distance we could be making a stroke and then listening for the ball to plop in rather than looking up as we go on the other issue that we often see with people who suffer with these little 3 forces is making too big a back stroke.
Now the problem there is if you make too big a back stroke either you're going to hit the ball too far too hard which might have the ball going in but it's certainly going to go in it's a lot of speed or it might even hit the rim and spin out of this one that. Now that ball should have got in but the pace took it wide of the hole. So if the back swing is too long the down swing will be too long the ball goes too fast all probably worse we decelerate So we have a big back swing and then decelerate into it and that's going to cause problems with the missing as well. So we want to make sure that as was stroking these in from 3 feet that we have. A relatively short back swing and a more positive more extended push through this concept of thirds back 2 thirds through to accelerate into the ball to make sure we keep the ball on line. So keep an eye there are not so sure along through a not looking up that should help improve those short pause and if you then repeat the exercise with the 50 balls from a putts length away from the hole see where the now. You will improve your scores from 40 increasing the percentages opens of 80 percent.
