That's the key Bro. Putting is all about confidence (I know you already know that).

I need to find my book from Dr. Bob Rotella "Putting out of your Mind"



At one point during my practice round on Wed., I made 4 birdies in a row...then I don't make a single birdie in 36 holes during the tournament. It's just maddening...but I know it will come around.

You might want to try putting with your eyes closed, or while looking at the hole. I think Johnny Miller did both of these things, before giving up the game completely:rolleyes:

Just go lose a grand at the track..it will make your short game seem better;)

Never should have switched from those ProV's

I went back to them when Titleist sent me 6 free dozen a week ago.:D

I can feel your pain with the putter. I am ok with long putts and even 6-10 footers, but I must be the worst putter in the world when it comes to putts that your supposed to make. I can't go one round without missing 2 or 3 putts inside of three feet. Drives me nuts, I know it's all in my head:eek:

trick I use if putting gets off, to get it back..... during practice, line up the put, visualize it, then make the stroke with your eyes closed (tip from pro I learned putting from). will show you any tendencies you are making (push, pull, etc). then get 2 blocks of wood and set on ground with minimal clearance to putter (tip from Nicklaus's Golf My Way). make a ton of putting strokes without touching the blocks. that will get your consistancy back and give you a ton of confidence, as you should basically make every single putt with the blocks (putt has to be on line every single time).

Works too. Missed winning best putter award on high school golf team by 1 shot (avg'd about 28 for the year). Don't play enough to keep it there now (would like to be able to play more and get it back to there), but that drill always gets me straightened out for a short period of time still, use it if tournament comes up that I'm playing in.
