Golf 101 Tips – Callaway Putt Track – Create An Excellent Putting Stroke And Lower Your Score

Putting is the most overlooked part of every golfers game and really should be the most practiced part of your golf game.  Every hole allows for two parts to make par which means that the putter is the most used club in the bag.So why don’t practice this part of our game as often as the full swing?

Often the practice facilities at your local practice range or golf club are not up to standard.

Golfers find putting very boring as opposed to pulling out the driver and hitting a ball 250 yards.

A lot of golfers are not sure how to properly align and practice their putting.

Callaway have come up with their putt track training aid which helps golfers of all levels practice their putting properly.

The Callaway Putt Track helps to create a straigher putting stroke and promotes a nice smooth consistent stroke.  The Putt Track promotes this by using a rectangular frame which you rest the heel of the putter on and by simply making smooth strokes you will instantly know if your making good putts or not.

The Callaway Putt Track easily adjusts to suit putters of all shapes and sizes and is a perfect fit for any golfer that is trying to lower their putts per round.

Lowering your putts per round is the best way of lowering your golf score and putting should be practiced for twice as long as you would practice your full shots.  The Callaway Putt Track is easy to setup and easy to store away when not in use and is perfect to use in conjunction with a putting mat or an automatic return putting cup.

If you would like more information about good golf training aids or full swing techniques please visit my Premier Golf Swing website which is updated daily.

9 Tips for playing well under pressure

Get Every Putt to the Hole

Most putts come up short because the player decelerates on the through-stroke. Minimize Your Swing ThoughtsPreshot: Visualize what you want the ball to do.

Address: Align the clubface where you want the ball to go.Swing thought: Freely swing the clubhead.


Survive The First-tee Jitters

Nervousness makes you speed up your tempo, which affects consistency and accuracy. Like you want to hit it only 100 yards,  swing your driver smoothly .

Make More Tough Short Putts

Set your putterface square to the desired line, then square your feet and shoulders to that line. Not at the ball but make a smooth stroke while looking at the target .

Take More Club on Par 3s

Few amateurs hit the ball over or through the green on par 3s; most come up short. You’re on, If you hit it flush ; You still might make it to the putting surface, if you hit it less than solidly .

Score Lower on Par 5s

Make the last shot your favorite yardage into the green. Divide the difference by two when subtract that yardage . With this strategy, you're hitting lofted clubs that are easier to hit and more accurate.

Letting the sand "splash" the ball out, good greenside bunker players accelerate the clubhead through the shot . The ball slightly forward in your stance, set up with the face of your sand wedge slightly open . Finish your swing like you're hitting a full 5-iron by hit the sand behind the ball .

Chip with Your Putting Stroke

To avoid chunking or skulling your chip shots, take a lofted club like a 7-, 8- or 9-iron and grip it like your putter. For a slightly descending blow, lean the shaft and your body toward the target . Make your putting stroke, allowing the loft of the club to carry the ball over the unpredictable turf onto the green.

Get Your Irons Airborne

Most topped shots occur when you try to help the ball into the air with a scooping motion.
