Photo this: You just hit a laser on the flag and your ball is placed 15 meters beyond the cup. Is the best look at birds you had all day and you are ampered. You stalk around the cup, take your reading and place it on the ball. You bring the putterhead back and through and wait with prediction as the ball rotates towards the cup. it JUST Burns the edge and rolls the cup. Then he continues to roll … and roll … and roll.
By the time it stops, it is 10 meters in front of the hole and you have a heck of a return just to save money. What was once a great look in Birdie quickly turns into a three -putt trunk. You walk from the steam green that comes out of your ears as you disturb the mental mistake and the lost opportunity.
If you are something like me, this is a familiar scene. When you take a good look at Birdie, it is natural to get excited and feel your adrenaline growth. But when this happens, it becomes very easy to take LOT The liquid up and hit the ball with a lot of rhythm.
Fortunately, there is an old school trick that you can use to make sure you have perfect speed in those descending bird views so as not to turn a possible bird into a frustrating noise.
Hit in the downhill hits the toe
When you have a slippery discount stroke, it is absolutely essential to hit the ball at the right pace. Hit very hard and the ball will soon leave you. Hit him very soft and you are seeing another slippery discounts.
Of course in this situation it is much more common to hit the ball very hard. To save against this, take a page from the old school book and line up with the ball outside the center in Putterhead.
“We’ll put this ball from your toe,” instructor Kelan McDonaugh told me Top 100 Golf teacher Summit last fall in Cabot Citrus Farms. “What will do this is that it will reduce the speed of the ball and the ball will turn out a little more dead and with a slower roll (face)”
Like with a full blow, when you hit the ball from your toe – and away from the sweet spot – the ball speed will be slower. Normally, you wouldn’t want this, but when you have a slippery stroke that can easily get away from you, keeping the ball down can be quite useful.
