Hi everyone, I'm Aimee When it comes to scoring, putting is what you need to be good at. So today I'm going to show you how to putter properly and share some tips to help you improve your putting skills. So let's start with the club grip. When you look at the putter, the grip of a putter is different compared to the other clubs in the bag it is obvious that it has a flat part at the top so I will try to use this flat to explain When you stretch out your left hand, you will see that there is a lifeline here. You have to put the lifeline on the left edge of the flat part like this, the lifeline is on the edge, and the left thumb is straight down on the flat part of the handle.
On the top left let's say there's an edge here on the left thumb, that's where the lifeline is, the right thumb is straight down and also on the grip so it makes us feel in control. When using the irons to swing up, you either use The overlapping grip, or the interlocking grip, right? But actually we'll have the index finger of the left hand up like this and then we'll cover the two fingers of the right hand here like this so we'll feel in control and because of what we're doing we're not going to use the wrist to Putting so when you use the palm, you use less of the wrist so it also gives a little more consistent energy so you understand the grip.
I would also like to give you three tips for hitting the ball. Well, this first point is: When you position the clubhead forward, I'll show you from the side that your clubhead should be flat on the ground. I see a lot of people grip the club like this: It's not good to have the toe up because… a lot of times, the heel of the clubhead will be driven down or even if you're good at keeping the heel off the ground and under the influence of the force, you'll have a lot of Less chance of hitting the center of the ball because the head is up so usually you see a lot of pros, most pros have their clubs flat on the ground and if you do that, you will feel The wrist on the left hand will bend outward a little.
Do you see that? You know it despite the iron stance : there's a slight angle at your wrist, on the left wrist for this putt, you're going to bend your left wrist so when you bend your left wrist, and The clubhead is also flat on the ground and you can see that: the forearm and the shaft form a straight line Most position players are like this in the league, body stance on their putt because aiming for a straight line will actually help you Reduce the back and forth use of your wrist, ok that's it.
However, if you're standing like an iron, your forearm and the bar will be at an angle. What we want so remember to lay the clubhead flat on the ground with the left wrist out and your forearm and the club in a straight line The second point is: the position of the ball I will show you from the side Like the body stance when using the irons, like this so the eye field is actually looking at the center of the ball, but when you tap into the hole, you want your left eye field to be directly over the golf ball Because if you stand like this. Your eye field is about to be in there and what happens next is: when you start hitting the ball your clubhead has an arc like you do with irons so in the force position it's hard to send A big arc so I think you guys can try it too, I'm sure you've seen it before but you're going to fall into a golf ball from your left eye field of view you've got a good stance so you'll have a little knee Bending your hips will bend more, just make sure your eye field is over the golf ball, ok that's it , so the golf ball is directly under my left eye field of view, and this method like this makes You hit the ball straighter back and forth, well, that's straight back and forth.
So you have more parallel power positions which also gives you less side spin and more putts. The third point is actually very important that you will have: the feeling that your elbows are going in a little bit so what I'm trying to say is this: a lot of times people say: come on like this: hold your elbows and then You can hit the ball back and forth and it's dangerous because your armpits aren't clamped so you might be a little wobbly or sometimes you stop using your wrists and your shoulders to pull it back and putt a goal , like this so you make sure your elbows are clamped, like this so your armpits are clamped and then you know a lot of times, they'll say: ok, pretend like a pendulum you can only go back and forth with your shoulders Hit the ball but actually I want to recommend it to everyone hitting the ball back and forth with your abs with core strength.
This may be difficult to understand but let's try it together. You'll understand this method better after you try it. Let's put the palm forward. We put the little fingers of the hands together, the palms of the hands together, like this when you feel this position, you feel the elbows are a little clamped and the armpits are also clamped.
This is to: give you in your shot More stability and better rhythm. Let's move on. I don't want your palms to move away from you, palms all the way forward. So please do one and two hits back and forth and back and forth and then you will feel your belly control the whole shot Next let's try it with a golf ball Let's say contact like your pinky so in the palm of your hand more, you Will pull your elbows a bit so you see the clamping and you will use your core strength to find the rhythm The way you hit the ball will be calmer and more consistent and have a good sense of rhythm So make sure you all remember: hold the club in your hand, don't use your wrist with the clubhead level on the ground, the ball is directly under the left eye so the stance is slightly left to center Make sure you pinch your elbows and Don't rock side to side to give a very solid and smooth shot Remember these points and you'll hit the hole like a pro with no effort.
