Three Tips to Help You Read the Green – Putting Tips

Are you the type of golfer that always has a wedge or a putter in your hands when you are around the green? Did you know that there is a much better way to get onto the green and closer to the hole?

Short Game, Short Game, Short Game One of the things that most higher handicap golfers forget about is their short game. They go to the driving range and hit a few iron shots, a few wedges, and as soon as they feel loose it is onto the driver. Sure it is very important to get off the tee and get into the fairway or at least keep the ball in play, but the place that allows you to score is form 40 yards and in. If you can get up and down for pars and bogies more often you will drop your scores considerably. You should spend about 75% of your practice time on the short game.

The first tip has to do with your set up. The most important part of hitting a good chip shot around the green is setting up correctly. Now just like you would in your full swing set up you want to align the clubface with your target line.

This is just like an extension of a putt so take the time to read it and pick out the correct line. Then, you want your weight about 60% on your forward leg and you want to use more body and less hands in the chip shot.

Last, you also need to take into account the ball flight that you play. If you are playing a fade into your target it would not make sense to line the clubface up with your target exactly.

You want to compensate for how much you think you are going to fade the ball. The same goes with a draw. This will allow you to move the ball into the target and if you can get aligned correctly you will hit your target more often. You will also have better missed shots, which can drop your handicap considerably.
