GOLF CHALLENGE 2012
Focusing on speed on long putts helps you assure an easy two-putt. And with better speed, you're more apt to pick the right line, so you'll hole more longer ones. From short range, prioritize read and aim. If you start the ball on the right line from "birdie" distance, odds are you'll find the cup, even with imperfect speed.
Alternating between birdie and par situations teaches patience; you take your pars in stride until a birdie chance arises. If you're patient, you're less likely to "force" a tough putt to drop, which will help you cut way down on three-putts. You're armed with a smart, actionable strategy. Now, enjoy that cold one in the clubhouse. You've earned it.
Most golfers are taught to grip the club in the fingers, to help create more clubhead speed. But research shows that your hands contribute only 10 percent to your overall swing velocity. Would you trade just a little speed for a grip that lets you hit a lot more fairways and greens? I thought so. (Don't worry—I'll show you how to get back those missing mph's a bit later).
