| good start to 2007 hi all got the year off to a good start!  playing a par 71 championship standard course in the howling wind and rain managed a 91! it doesnt sound that good but considering i couldnt stand still on the putting green most of the time im very pleased. tee to green i played probably the best ever. too many 3 putts or i could have had a low 80's score hope to carry this form throughout the year and practise the putting and short game more  |

| Re: good start to 2007 Well done mate - always nice to come off feeling you've played well. What's up with the putting? Missing the six-footers? Por lag? Both? Anyway a while ago I found this site http://puttingzone.com/ its all a bit technical for me as I like to "feel" the putt but have a look.... When I do (not enough) practice putting my favourite drill is The Putting Square... Find a hole that has an uphill, downhill, left to right and right to left putt. Place a tee 3` from the hole for each of the above putts. You need to make 3-putts in a row from each tee. Every time you miss, add 1-point to your score, but you must make 3 in a row to move to the next tee. Once you get around the Putting Square, move each tee 1` back and continue around at 4` and 5`. According to the site I picked this up from the scores below are the actual average scores from golfers in their respective categories. US PGA Tour Pro: 0 to 3 misses US Nationwide Tour Pro: 4 to 6 misses US College Player 8 to 15 misses 10 Handicap 18 to 25 misses I normally hover around the 28 mark but one glorious summer day I finished the square in 10. To me the third putt from each position is the nearest thing to real life putting pressure. Anyone else got any favourite drills?
