Putting's not the easiest of task when it comes to a precision sport such as golf. .For the average lay golfer that hole is always 'so close and yet so far'. Well If you've been out of the game like I have. I've compiled some of the most useful tips on how to redevelop that old putt technique which used to be you're trump card against those ol' corporate rivals.

1. Perhaps the easiest method, what some people do is to nearly let go of the putter with their right hand, gripping the cheap golf clubs with the fingertips and exerting little or no pressure with the right hand. The left hand will be consequently then guide the ball which would have been created by the pendulum effect of the shoulders. In situations where you are missing the hole by a few inches this is the best option.

2. From here it gets slightly tougher. If you switch to a left hand dominate grip (by placing the left hand slightly lower on the putter than the right) then the left hand will be in control of the strokes with cheap golf clubs and allow the right hand to be more relaxed the longer you practice over the next few weeks.

3. One of the most effective exercises would be to putt using your right hand only. do this for a couple of weeks by putting your left hand in your left pocket. Although it takes some time to get used to it, you'll find that your right hand will eventually become more relaxed and your putting average will return to what it was before. After this you can return to using both hands.
