Hello! On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Bryan Pemberton from the Reserve at
Spanos Park and we've talked about some putting drills today and some things we can do to
improve our putting. You will fine next time you are practicing you are going to find that
it is very tough to actually practice the putting sometimes. It's kind of boring and
you don't get to see the long drive but a lot of players don't practice their putting
as much as they need to and again that's one of the things you are going to find that saves
more strokes in adding 30 yards or 15 yards to your drives. Again next time you go out
and play on a golf course, take a look at your stats and look at how many putts you
had on your score guard and kind of total those up and see if we can get somewhere around
30. Your average tour player will have somewhere around 30 or 29 and again if your putts are
over 36, then you are definitely not spending enough time in the putting green. Again keep
practicing, keep practicing. Have some of the things that determine your scores and
we can actually come out here and have little games with yourself and actually have a goal
when you are actually practicing. If I am actually going to putt and practice, I am
going to try and make 10, 15 footers or a 100 3 footers or something where you can actually
have a goal to where you have something that you are actually trying to do when you are
practicing. Again practicing your putting is not one of the more exciting things to
do but you are going to find you are going to save a lot more strokes practicing your
putting than you will with any other club. This club right here you are going to use
more times than any other club in your bag, more than the driver. So again this is going
to be very important to use this and make sure we get the putts down around 30. Your
average tour player has around 29. Again if you have a chance to see your PGA professional,
stop by and take some lessons. It will be worth it. For all the beginners out there,
I can't tell you how important it is to get the good sound basics. We don't have to work
out any bad habits.
