Ken’s Tip of the Month:
Controlling the speed of your putts.
Putting looks so simple, but once you are on a real-life golf course the putting greens take on a whole new dimension. The cup looks smaller and the target a lot farther away. There is no magic tip that will get you stroking every putt just right, but practicing and playing regularly will help you develop feel in relatively short order. Every time you practice, set aside at least tent to fifteen minutes for putting. Start from close range to long range, getting each putt within 2 or 3 feet should be your primary goal. Don’t worry about making putts from this distance. Practice putting uphill, downhill, and side hill. You will quickly learn to trust your mind to gauge the effect of slopes on the speed of your putts.
Good Luck and remember, the purpose of this game is to have fun!
