Long Putting need wrists


A big mistake made by alot of golfer when hitting long putts is to use the same stroke that they would use on a short putt. A wrist less putting stroke is great for being accurate on short putts but simply wont do it for distance control on long putts where pace is more important than line. If you look at this picture and the two below you will see how at set up my putter shaft points between my arms, in the backswing it lines up with my left arm and in the follow through it lines up with my right arm. practice this and your long putting will improve.

Long Putting needs wrist action

notice how in the backsswing my wrist have hinged so now the shaft lines up with my left arm

The Tee Shot 17th St Andrews

About the most famous Blind tee shot in the world is the 17th at the Old Course St Andrews. This is Peter Fowler in a practice round before the Dunhill Links 2008 his line was over the L in Hotel. Sometimes hard to do but the key is to pick a line and trust it. So if you are lucky enough to play the old course rip it over the L.
