There’s a problem today with most putting instruction. Putting for hours on end is not only tedious for most golfers, but they rarely have a clear direction to their putting practice.
Putting is an art and a science. You should be learning and developing your skills from people who’s methods have a proven track record.
Without clear goals in mind for your putting, you can spend hours upon hours working on it, and not really see any improvement.
Instead of going to for quantity of time spent on the range, go for quality.
If the flatstick is your friend, you can always be competetive. Without it, there is little chance your handicap will go down over the long run.
Spend an hour with Steve Elkington and Geoff Mangum to learn the keys to good putting and how to conquer that all-important part of the game. “Drive for show, putt for dough” as the saying goes.
