Lower your Golf ScoreTips on How to Lower your Golf Score

There is a way to lower your golf score, and the most efficient and quick way to do so is by putting. Although there are those golfers who put the blame on the putter thus the reason for their bad putt, it also helps if the grip of the putter is on a surface that is flat.

Shaft Length

It is advisable for the shaft to be at the appropriate length for the golfer to have a posture that allows the arms to hang down straight from the shoulders to ease the
swing of the arm.

The head of the putter should as much as possible be heavy especially if the golfer plays on slow-greens. But if the golfer plays on fast-greens, the putter should be light.

Grip it good

When engaging in an actual play, the putter should be gripped in a way that is comfortable to the golfer. The thumbs must be on a surface of the putter grip that is flat.

The face of the putter should be perpendicular to the line of the target. You would be able to know if the putter is correctly aimed if you look at the direction of the ball from behind. You can try this exercise: on your ball, make a distinguishing mark. Then, pick up the ball and replace the ball. Point the writing you made on the ball towards the line of the target.

After which, place the head of the putter behind the golf ball and put the head of the putter in a direction perpendicular to the mark put on the ball. By doing so, you were able to aim the face of the putter towards the line of the target.

Wasn't it easy? Now you can stand in a relaxed manner as you direct your eyes over the golf ball. Your shoulders should be in a position that is parallel to the line of the target. Notice that if your shoulders are correctly aimed, it is sure that the golf ball is on the correct path.

Distance and direction

A good golf putter must be able to have a sense of direction as well as distance.

If you have a sense of direction, chances are you will have a great putting set-up. As much as possible, try to use the method of the Triangle. This method makes use of your shoulders and both your right and left arms. These three parts must work together as a single component especially when the putter is moved back and moved forth with a pressure grip that is light. Doing so enables you a chance to sense the correct distance.
