The average golfer will spend 66% of their time within 75 to 100 yards of the green. The bulk of this percentage is spent in and around the putting surface. With that in mind, the average golfer limits their practice of this important task to less than 15 minutes before each round with little or no practice after they leave the golf course.
Most golfers complain that putting at home on the carpet gets old real fast since they cannot mimic what it is like to putt on a real green. With that being said, what is key to improving the art of putting (some will argue it is a science), is to take what you have at home or in some cases at the office and make the best of it. Making the best of it is were the PUTTING PYRAMID comes in.
The PUTTING PYRAMID serves as a training aide. By design it helps the golfer not only train what they see when the putt, but also how they feel and hear. Yes, what they see, what they feel and what they hear. Nothing like a good piece of carefully crafted wood to accomplish all three at once.
Consider the following:
1. To improve your PUTT COUNTS you must improve the SPEED of your putts. Getting it to the hole trumps where it stops near the hole. On average you want your putts to land within two feet or less on most putts. Your goal is to two-putt at least half your greens.
2. To improve your putting you must improve your feel around the green. That is, your confidence level standing over a putt, not to mention your ability to see the proper line and judge the proper speed to get it there. With the PUTTING PYRAMID your learn to see a bigger hole and improve the speed of your putts by seeing and hearing where the ball lands each time.
3. Putting is something that most golfers can improve on almost immediately with a little practice, plenty of patience, and improved confidence. The adage drive for show and putt for dough applies.
The PUTTING PYRAMID works on three areas: SPEED, SIGHT, and FEEL. The cost is $50.00 and comes with 15 page booklet that explains not only the basics of putting, but also ways in which to improve the above mentioned areas.
