Goldilocks Putting Drill
Putt 1 ball to a hole or target. Before you look to see where the putt finishes, say out loud (or too yourself) how you think the putt will finish in relation to the hole/target:
- TOO SHORT
- TOO LONG
- JUST RIGHT
Better distance control with your putting will immediately eliminate 3 putts (without involving 3 angry bears either).
