The Best Putting Tip Ever! (No Joke - Try It)

If you're looking for the best putting tip ever you've found it. This is no joke. I used to be a phenomenal putter. This was from practicing my putting a minimum 1 hour at the course and up to another 3 hours at home on indoors on the carpet into an indoor putting cup I called the Puttacup.
Everyone loses their putting at one time or another. If you're not making putts, you start thinking about your stroke. Thinking about your stroke is the worst thing you can possibly do. In order to become a great putter, you need to be target oriented. This is the best putting tip that's going to allow you to do just that. Don't believe me? Try it.
I know it can be frustrating when you aren't putting your best but don't worry. Now that you've found the best putting tip ever, you can watch it and go back to it in the future if you ever lose it again.
I thought of this putting drill many years ago and it has been tested on many golfers with them all saying it works great and helped them start putting great again. So give what I call the best putting tip a try. Once you do, leave your comment below so I can prove that becoming target oriented is the way to become a great putter.

Thanks a lot, Paul, for this craziest putting tips that has never been since. I will practice at my golf club this Saturday and I am sure my golf mates will be surprised of the result, which will be sure I will make total putting of less than 36 uit in total ...

Paul, I often missed (30%) short putts when I concentrated and tried to do everything right, but about 4 years ago I noticed that I always made (100%ish) short putts when I did not care. I would walk up to a four to five foot putt and not even set myself (maybe still walking) and putt the ball into the center of the hole. I realized then that I should try this mentality with long putts too. Unbelievable. It worked except I did set myself briefly and would simply tell myself I don't give a crap if the ball goes in or not. It really freed up my head and stroke. It works. I think it is the same principle that you are talking about in this video.

I like the imitation of the frustrated golfers! This is great. I stumbled onto something years ago and never realised why it worked so well until this video. I would imagine myself simply attempting to roll the ball in the hole similar to lawn bowling and then take the put, the improvement was the quickest and longest lasting change I'd ever had. It still works a charm, and thanks to you I realised its because I am not thinking thru the shot but simply making the shot. My method is different but I think essentially the same. Thanks!! I also applied a similar principle to my Irons, I basically imagine I'm chopping into a tree with an axe, this also had great results, even though I thought I would be slicing the ball a lot I didn't. Just had a simple, relatable, image in my head instead of a bunch of confused instructions!! Thanks again.

This is great Paul. I am a retired teacher of Golf for over 16 years, and I would tell my students to stop trying to take the putter straight back and through or ride the arc - mind and muscle kill your swing - even when you putt. Their putting grip pressure went from 5 to 10 trying to be perfect. LOL. I would tell them to loosen the grip to a 3 and then focus on the hole at impact - NOT the ball. Awesome tip! Excellent!

@mntlblok 2 ай бұрын

@@paulwilsongolf That makes me now wonder if the "why" of this move I've found (lucked into) to cause far better contact on long putts is merely a version of this. Would make sense, as I've made no effort to "quantify" it. For my chipping practice, I take my putter to the scattered results and experiment with ways of getting such long distances done via putts back to my chipping area. Had settled on just stroking through a spot a couple of inches in front of the ball on my "target line", but the backswing had to be "inside" the target line - my idea of an "arc" - but no "particular" arc. Initially thought it only worked if it was used with a "wristy" stroke, but eventually found that that *wasn't* the common denominator. And, solid contact nor great distance control were *not* the prime goal, but they quickly became rather amazing "side effects", especially considering what a *horrendous* putter I've always been. Thanks to this tip, further experimentation is most certainly in order. 🙂 Thank you! Now can't get Billy Mayfair out of my mind. . .

@paulwilsongolf 2 ай бұрын

Yes, don't over analyze it. Just keep doing it so you become target oriented not stroke oriented. Just remember that you are no wiggling it when you play (you can if you want) but I typically have people do their normal stroke on the course.

the wiggle part helped me, but it also helped me realize that I focus too much on lining up correctly and getting the path right that I just push or pull all my putts. This just helps me pick my line, get up to the ball, and just putt. This will take some time to adjust on the course, but during practice I definitely see and feel a difference.

Listen as a new golfer who has played basketball for 35 years, all I can say is YES!!! IM NOT CRAZY.... when I first started putting I didn't worry about anything other than the cup. (Aka the target) I was sinking 10 footers like free throws. Then, as I played more and started watching other people and listening to guys give me tips putting became the hardest part of the game. For me putting is so much easier when I take the jump shooter mentality. Focus on the target and simply follow through.

Paul this is a putting version of David Lee's old proprioception drills! I did this for three straight days and yesterday and today I played in our state's super senior AM tournament and I putted great in tournament conditions on greens that were running over 13. I only 3-putted twice, and anyone who plays in tournaments can tell you it's a totally different deal than playing with your buddies. I think what this does is it makes you instinctively feel the weight of the putter. Pretty amazing.

Interesting. I know Danny Lee quite well. Met him at our course one day. He came over to me and shook my hand and said David said that I was the closest teacher to what he taught.

Good tip Paul. Years ago I did the no look at the ball drill after setting up and deciding on my line, and it ended up becoming a regular routine for me. This is right in line with that because focus is on the target. I find that getting hypnotized staring at your ball/putter/line is just too static and rigid, and more often than not on putts of 4' or longer you're offline when you come through.

@paulwilsongolf 9 ай бұрын

Yes, there have a been a lot of people who benefitted from looking at t he hole. This would be target oriented too but I think most people don't like doing it.

Paul, you did a putting tip video awhile back where you showed to take some practice swings while looking at the target to gauge speed. I took that to the course the next day and putted the best I ever had, every long putt ended up within 4 feet of the hole, and even made some birds too! This drill seems awesome and can't wait to try it. Please keep the short game tips coming!

Thanks Paul, your overall tips helped me so much last season! (e.g. the last 36 holes I played I hit driver some 28 times almost dead straight, only one slight fade maybe 12 yds off straight!). For a 18 HC ...wow. SO I have a I think a unique putting tip, after maybe watching some literally 1000 YT videos last 4 yrs, NO ONE has mentioned this method. But hope you like this one and use it as advice. Works fairly well to read greens. So, usual advice is stand in line with your shot to hole with feet spread apart (90 Degrees to the line) and "feel" any slope L or R. Well, my feet are not that calibrated unless its a BIG slope. What I come up with is to plumb bob my putter, holding it say waist height, after standing with both feet evenly apart 90 degrees to the line. Then hold my putter, lightly with two fingers so putter can swing freely L or R. The putter head is down near the green & my feet. I now stand straight, balanced; so now IF the slope is say R to L, the putter will be slightly closer to my LEFT FOOT. Right side is higher. Proves the ball will run slightly R - L. Further, but a well known tip is to check if the lip of the hole is worn say on that left side, maybe even brown blades of grass bent down on that side; If so, Left side is lower. Hope you like this idea re using the putter plumb bobbing between the feet, to verify what your feet should feel? Thanks again and take care, hope you have a great 2024 season. Ron K

@paulwilsongolf Ай бұрын

Yes, wow. That's great. So glad you found me and are doing well. I am not big on feeling it in my feet. Can't seem to feel any difference. Plumb bobbing has been around forever but they hold it up at eye level. Waist high is different and may actually work. I think some of it would be dependent on leg length. If one leg was shorter you would have to take that into consideration. I will try it and see how it works. If so, I may do a tip on it in the future. Thanks for sending it. Keep up the good work.

Interesting timing of this tip. I had a rough round putting recently due to playing on a course with crazy fast greens. I went to the driving range/putting area at my local course (East Potomac for those who know) to meet with my wife after her lesson to play a quick 9 on the par 3 course and she was talking about the "pause to gather" in the backswing concept. For some reason I thought to try an ever so slight pause with mu back stroke while putting...and all of a sudden I was the master of putting! Moral of the story is I think the pause in my back stroke forced me to send the putter forward towards the target. I kept the pause during my round and am going to try it this weekend, but if that starts to falter, I'll use this wiggle drill to get my mind focused on the target.

I even have had an even par round with 36 putts. I usually have 3-4 three putts. So I went out this morning before my round and did your drill. I wiggled like you said(as my friends laughed) and the results were pretty instant. By the 25th practice putt, I started noticing them going in. During the round I made 6 birdies, no three putts and a total of 26 putts, a personal best. I did miss 3 putts within 6 feet, so still a little yippie, but man what a difference! Thank you

@zanierrules 9 ай бұрын

This is a refocusing technique. Most people are thinking too much about their stance, the path of the putter, the arc, etc. When really, we all know how to hit the ball to the target but we're not focusing on that. This relaxes that swing-centric focus and reprioritizes it to the hole itself. Knowing you're refocused means you don't need to do the wiggle on the course itself. You COULD, of course, but like a lot of training exercises, they're not meant for the game itself.

@wreckim 9 ай бұрын

My guess....Gary Player putts incredibly well with an outside in stroke, ala Bobby Locke. He never putts like that on the golf course; I imagine he still makes more putts with his stroke, but has used Locke's method to better understand what is really important about putting: getting the ball started at the target.

Maybe we should analyze what the best putters of all time were doing.

This is a great idea and it works. Seems like why some pros look at the hole on short puts so they don't focus on the back swing. You will never be a great putter watching the back stroke because when you see a back stroke you don't like you will monipulate the foward stroke. Paul this was the start of correcting my poor putting. Now I am a pretty solidb putter and par saver. Learning how to pitch much better doesn't hurt either.

Yes, the looking at the hold is basically what they are trying to do. If you are looking at the hole you aren't watching your stroke.

@accridelich7369 9 ай бұрын

Works well ! I like the part where it forces you to keep the grip's end cap directly over the putter head throughout the swing (ie the shaft remains vertical). Rocking (ie pendulum) the shoulders causes you to decelerate off-line just before impact. This is one of the reasons Dave Stockton was so good at rarely 3 putting in the early 1970s. An informal record of 970 putts between 3 putts. The record was broken in his 1976 PGA Championship while playing with ArnoldP on Sunday.

He said that when I play catch with a baseball or football, my mind does the same thing. We don't think about how far to pull our arm back or the exact moment to release the ball. His advice was to stand behind the ball, looking at the hole (or a target before or after the hole depending on the slope we are putting on), and practice my stroke as I focus on the target. Then all I had to do at address is trust that my brain had calibrated that putt correctly. I never looked back from there. I've always been a well above average player on the greens as a result.

I gave this a try and surprisingly sunk the first two putts from about 10 feet. I did a few more putts from different lengths and struggled with getting the speed right. I will keep experimenting but this is introducing more moving parts instead of simply rocking your shoulders back and forth.

Glad you tried it. Not sure how you think this is introducing more moving parts you are doing YOUR normal stroke after you do this drill.

My bad... I missed the caption on your video where you say to use your normal stroke on the course. Been following you for years and always look forward to your videos.

Its crazy amazing how good this was. I practice putting alot. I have been on a slump for the past month on putting. So ive been putting in more work and it was not improving. I saw this video and tried it on my pre round putting practice. Its just crazy how much it fixed my putting and more than anything i think it helped me mentally. I have been over thinking my stroke and totally did not realize that it took away from trying to make the putt. I had 7 1putts. Mostly long putts. And the putts i missed were mostly easy tap in putts. Amazing tip. All my flight mates asked for the link to this video.

So glad you tried it. Overthinking your stroke is not good. Think about your stroke and you will be a terrible putter. You have already been a great putter. Now trust it and think target not stroke. If so, you will have it forever. Thanks for sharing it to others. Funny I get people who bash me or are disbelievers. You are further proof it works. Just need to think outside the box.

@paulwilsongolf flightmates were thinking i was crazy when i was telling them about it till i kept sinking super long par save putts or seeing most of my 2nd putts were tap ins, a long birdie putt and even a long engle putt! This is now gonna be part of my pre round routine. Perfect time too thay i saw this. Big tournament at my home course next week. Keep up the great tips!! 🔥💥💯

@@paulwilsongolf This just freed me up! I was so focused on the take away that my transition to the actual putt was late, early or jerky - randomly messing up pace and line. After doing your drill, I now take a few air puts looking at the hole to get the pace and then magically and consistently put a smooth stroke on the ball. This really helped me out in what was the weakest area of my game. Thank you!
