Putting on different greens
Ever go to a golf course and hit the ball great but maybe your putting was not so good. Most of the times, before play, golfers rush to the putting green and start working on their 4 to 5 foot putts. However, when playing a new course you must first get a feel for the speed of the greens. Next time instead of working on those short putts, make some putts on the practice green that will help you control your distance. Often times called the ladder drill, send one putt on its way about 40 feet. Then hit another putt and try to stop the ball 3 feet from the previous one. Continue this process with at least 10 golf balls, each time stopping the ball approximately 3 feet from the previous. You will be better able to gauge the speed of the greens, which will help you on the golf course!
