Focus Your Eyes
If you want a sure way to miss a putt, look up or peek to see if the
ball goes into the hole before it does.
Don't do it.
Resist the temptation to watch the ball.
The best thing to do is keep your head still over the ball and just
stare down at the empty spot the ball he used to occupy long before
you hit the putt.
Use your ears instead. Listen to hear if the putt falls....
Don't allow your eyes to follow the putterhead during the stroke.
To help focus, pick a small, noticeable mark on the ball to focus
upon. Keep your eyes fixated on the brand name, printed logo, a
simple dimple, or an identification mark throughout your stroke.
If you are still having trouble, try to put your putterhead on the ball,
stare at a spot on the ball, & then stand perfectly still for five
seconds....
During these five seconds, let the gaze of your eyes slowly go out of
focus. Your eyes will still be fixated on the spot of the ball you were
staring at, but everything else will become fuzzy and soft.
Go ahead and putt with your eyes and mind in this blurry, meditative
state. Slip into an altered state & just let it happen.
Putt Better by Fixing Your Alignment
Are you seeing too many angles when you stand over a putt?
Have you checked to ensure that you are lined up correctly? Your
conscious alignment may be at war with your subconscious'. And
your putt might be caught in the conflict between them both....
Sounds funny, doesn't it? Not really if you think about it...
Try this:
Pick a hole on a flat spot on the practice green and drop your ball a
few feet from the hole. Stand behind the ball and line up the putt.
You are going to use the printed brand name on the ball as a guide,
so make sure you can see it.
Position the ball so that the name is pointing straight toward the
hole. When you get over the ball with your putter, match the line on
top of your putter to the line on the ball's logo.
Put the putterhead flush behind the ball on this line. Now take notice
of your feet. Are they perpendicular to the line created by the logo?
How about your shoulders?
Finally, are you taking the putter head straight back and straight
through during the stroke?
This will give you a very good indicator on how to adjust your
alignment.
Buying Golf Putters
It's time to invest in a new putter. If you are in this game for the long
haul, it should go without saying that you should keep an eye out for
the latest designs & technology offered by the big name golf
equipment manufacturers.
Here are a couple for you to check out:
Tiger Shark
Most golf putter manufacturers extend their alignment aids behind
the golf ball. But, the Tiger Shark Optix golf putter maintains its
alignment on top of it. Their Optix putter is precision milled of
aluminum that provides an even density along with a well-balanced
feel.
This new golf putter works best when used in conjunction with the
"Line M Up" ball marking tool, which is a device that marks golf
balls with a straight line.
The Tiger Shark Optix golf putter features the newest version of the
company's signature jumbo sized grip. This new, over-sized grip
model, is called the UltraTac. It's worth considering...
The Rife Putters company, formerly titled Guerin Rife, has created a
brand-new golf putter called the "
golf putter.
This club has an elegant mallet design which is shaped to the
preference of the pros, while at the same time offering plenty of
alignment aids.
And like all golf putters designed by Rife, the
complete with a RollGroove face. This face has small grooves that
protrude instead of recess.
This design helps the new
skidding that may occur while inducing a faster end-over-end roll.
This new golf putter also comes with LieAlign technology. Take a
look at it yourself.
