A Simple Drill to Improve Your Putting Get serious about improving your putting. After all, its close to 40%

of your score. Here's a simple, but effective drill to take your putting game to a new level.

Purchase a chalk line used by carpenters to draw long, straight lines. Find a relatively flat putt and use the chalk line to make a line from the middle of the cup out 10 or 12 feet from the hole. Place your ball so the line splits it in half. Now place your putter face exactly perpendicular to the line and directly behind the ball.

Stroke putts keeping the putter face precisely perpendicular to your chalk line on the back and forward strokes. This ensures a square, straight back and straight through stroke which is all you need to become a better putter.
