"Make Your Putting a Game"

Here is a putting game for all golfers.......

On the practice putting area take one ball and try to two putt to every hole.  If you three putt at any point, go back to the starting point and challenge yourself to stay the course until you complete this drill.  Every hole in two or less putts or back to the start.

You will develop speed and lagging ability, learn that line is important but not as important as speed, plus making that last putt after going all the way around will feel like putting at "The Masters" for the win.

Pressure is self induced but real and hard to teach unless experienced.  This is one of a few games that helps teach pressure, plus you will learn to try and make putts that keep it within that three foot lagging circle.

When one ball becomes easy, step it up to two, three, four, etc.  This added bonus will teach you self discipline.
