You have probably heard the saying “drive for show and putt for dough.”  One of the quickest ways to lower your golf scores and beat your golf buddies is by improving your putting.

If you want to shave a few extra strokes from your next round of golf, you need to practice using this quick drill.

On the practice green put a marker or tee down 3 feet from the hole.  No you do not need a measuring tape, just get it close.  Put another mark down on the same line 6 feet from the hole, and a third marker down 9 feet from the hole.

Start at the three foot location with three balls.  Sink all three balls consecutively and move on to the 6 foot mark.  You can not move on until you have sank all three golf balls consecutively.  Sink all three consecutively again to move on to the 9 foot mark, but if you miss a shot at any point you must start again at the 3 foot mark.  Finish when you have made all 9 shots in a row, 3 from the 3 foot mark, 3 from the 6 foot mark, and 3 from the 9 foot mark.

Once you sink all 9 putts, you can either challenge yourself by move back 3 more feet or you can move the markers to a different line with different breaks on the putting green.

This drill will be challenging at first but progress comes faster than you would expect.

Do this drill a couple times a week and watch your putting improve dramatically.
