Putting stroke

Golf / Popular

Build a repeatable stroke with steady tempo, face control and solid contact.

What coaches agree on

  • Hold the putter high in your palms so your forearms form a straight line with the shaft.
  • Keep your lower body and torso still and stable throughout the stroke.

Common mistakes

  • Letting the hands and wrists steer the putter instead of swinging from the shoulders, which makes the stroke jabby and inconsistent.
  • Jabbing or hitting hard at the ball, often from too short a backswing, instead of keeping the stroke smooth.
