I Always Hit My Putts Too Hard..
Question:
One of my main problems in my golf game is in my putting distance control, I am always hitting it too hard. How can I fix this? Alec M., Orting, Wash.
Answer:
If you look at all great putters they have a few things in common. They all have repeatable, rhythmical swings, and they all can control distance and direction. Distance control is a major factor in all short-game shots and especially putting.
The distance a putt travels is governed by two major factors:
1) Solidness of contact and
2) Clubhead speed.
All putters have a sweet spot near the center of the face.When the ball is struck on the sweet spot you get a consistent roll with no twist in the putter face. Any off-center shots (that is, not on the sweet spot) deaden the blow.
So the first thing to do is find the sweet spot on your putter. Take your putter and lightly hold the grip with your thumb and forefinger of your left hand and extend your left arm to about shoulder height. With the club hanging take a golf ball and start tapping the center of the putter's face with the ball. Keep tapping the face until you find a spot that has no vibration or twist in the face. That's the sweet spot. If your putter has an alignment aid and it does not match the sweet spot -- or if there is no line on your putter -- add a line or dot on the top edge of the putter with a Sharpie.
Most modern putting strokes have one power source: the shoulders. When you move the putter with your shoulders, your arms and wrists maintain their angles and your stroke becomes a pendulum motion. The big muscles of your shoulders move more slowly than the small muscles of your hands, wrist and arms, which means a shoulder-powered stroke is easier to repeat. Distance control is achieved by having a stroke that is the same length back as through, with a constant beat. Imagine you have a metronome with you. Then take the putter in your right hand only and start making practice swings that are the same length back as through and match the beats of the metronome in your head. For shorter putts, make a shorter back-and-through motion with the same beat. For longer putts longer strokes back and through with the same beat.
Now set up to a ball and putt to a target retaining the beat and same back-and-through technique. If you can hit the ball on the sweet spot with a rhythmic stroke you are well on your way to becoming a first-rate putter.

Gale
