Sometimes putting can get too mechanical. Worrying about putter head path or putter face angle can make us forget why we're there. To get the ball into the hole!
The Drill.
Put 12 balls in a circle using the 12 points of the clock. The goal here is to work around the clock sinking putts without doing too much thinking. Allow your instinct to take over and feel the slope with your feet as you work your way around. Feel the uphill, downhill, and sidehill slope and make your adjustment accordingly. Don't worry if you miss some putts in the beginning. After two or three sessions of this drill, you will be amazed at how you will start putting on the course.
By working on how you Develop your Putting Instinct, this drill will actually help you read greens a lot better in the future. Your body will start to learn to notice the slope with your feet, and you will instinctively know when you have an uphill putt on the course, and your subconscious will make the adjustment automatically.
