short putts that seem meaningless. However, when you have to make them you will be more likely to
(817) 927-4221 TO SIGN UP. stay focused and keep your concentration on the next shot. Second, don’t aim outside the hole. From
“gimmie” length you rarely have to aim your putter outside the edges of the hole. This helps you know
where to aim and should give you confidence in where to hit the ball. From this close distance you will
also be more accurate with your putter aim. Go ahead and aim in the center. Lastly, make a confident
stroke. Keep your stroke short and sweet. You don’t need a long or slow stroke on the short putts. Hit
the ball firm enough so it rolls in the hole. A good idea is to say “Sink it” in your head during your stroke.
“Sink” for the backswing and “it” when you make impact with the ball. This will give you a consistent
tempo to your putting stroke.

If you need more help please don’t hesitate to call your golf professionals here at the club. We are
here to help you with your game.
