GOLF Top 100 Teacher Stephen Sweeney gave me a simple putting drill that immediately improved my putting. Here's how it works.
Zephyr Melton details how a putting lesson from PGA Tour putting consultant and GOLF Top 100 Teacher Stephen Sweeney improved his stroke. After struggling with inconsistent putting early in the season, Melton received instruction on his setup, green reading, and stroke mechanics. Sweeney introduced a simple drill requiring golfers to set up a submerged tee marker on a straight putt and build a tee gate one foot ahead.
Melton explains that rolling the ball repeatedly through the gate provides a clear visual starting target. According to Melton, adopting this target-focused strategy on the golf course resolved his putting slump and helped him hole more putts.
