Tip No.8 Putting/ Putter Face

When putting it s important to remember that we want to hit every putt like a straight putt. This means that we should first of all work out what is the intended starting line and have a clear picture of it. Once we have done so we should set up to hit the putt along the intended starting line ignoring the hole. Your putters need to stay square to the starting line you have chosen and not drift open or closed towards the hole. For right handed players ask yourself how many times you come up short and on the low side when hitting a left to right breaking putt? This is because the putter face has opened up towards the hole therefore losing power and direction. Try placing two shafts on either side of the ball with room for your outer to swing through. Aim the shafts at your starting point and practice hitting putts through keeping the face square to the starting point.

Tip No.7 Clubface

Surprisingly the clubface is an often overlooked aspect of our golf games. Learning how to aim the clubface correctly and have it return to square at impact are two of the most important factors of a good shot. When next lining up make sure you use the clubface (leading edge) first to ensure your clubface aim is not affected by the way your body is facing. Use the clubface to then help aim your body. To test if you can square the clubface at impact swing the club nice and easy to waist high in your backswing and through to waist high in your forward swing and see if you can get a soft straight ball flight, if not the flight of the ball will tell you if the face is open or closed.

Tip No.6 Black and White balls

So many of us now use a line on the ball in particular for lining up putts. Try making a line all of the way around the equator of the ball with a marker pen and then colour in one side black to produce a black and white ball. Use this ball to practice your putting, chipping, pitching and bunker shots lining up the ball with the line around the ball facing the target meaning the black and white sections will be upright on either side of the ball facing the target. When hitting any of the above shots try to keep the black and white sides of the ball looking the same throughout the shot. If you can’t achieve this you are putting too much sidespin on the ball and need to keep practicing until you can keep the black and white sides the same.
