What Are Good Golf Putting Tips?
Amateur golfers think that putting is hard, but keeping some secret putting tricks up one’s sleeves makes it an easy job. If you think so to, all you have to do is talk with golf pro to get these terrible ideas raided to dust. It is never so easy. Working for the entire day on the green, calculating carefully and then making the strokes may seem very easy on T.V, but it is really very painstaking.
Just having a few secret tips on your fingers will never make you an ace golfer. These tips are not magical, but they are surely the guidelines that you need to follow while you are practicing so as to make your mark. These tips are given below:
You will have to know what your right spot of putter is in order to hit great putts. You can do this by just hanging and swinging your putter from your hand. Keep your fingers loose, and with the other hand, take the ball while you start tapping your shoe with the putter. Then work your way to the centre. Only when you hit the ball, the face of the putter does not twist, will you know that this is the right spot of the putter for you.
The next best putting tip is building a stable base and taking the right stance. A lot of golfers do not make the best putting shots because they have a problem at the roots: posture. In order to build the right base, you have to take the putting stance at the doorway, with your hips touching the door jam. When you take your stroke, your hips should move away from the door jam. This way you will have less movement in your lower part of the body, which should always be the case. This is a very good technique, and to follow it, you can practice it anywhere, be it in your office when your secretary will not intervene, or in your home when you are alone in your room.
Another thing you can do instead of standing in the doorway is to get close to a wall. You should not be touching it, so when you are making your swing, your hips must not brush against the wall at all. Your head should be straight too, and you must not break this posture. If your head rocks, this means you are not doing it right and you can start all over again.
There is no need to use the expensive training aids. These tips are very inexpensive, and you can follow them anytime anywhere. Use a flat three foot putt when you are practicing. Line the strips on the range balls so as to maintain a straight lien as you putt them to the hole. The line must not widen up or curve in when you are putting. If it does, this means that you are not dong it right. While putting, the line has got be straight and nothing else.
These methods will put your right on the top spot while you make your impressive shots on the green and then get applauded by the watching audience!

Make sure you are properly aligned so that your stroke is being hit to a spot just beyond the hole on a straight putt., to the point where it starts to break on a breaking putt.Practice 3 and 4 footers every time you are on the practice green and don’t leave until you have sunk 4 putts from each distance in a circle around your target, no two from the same spot. That is a way you build confidence. Think positive that you will sink every putt.

As was already mentioned, make sure everything is in alignment: toes, knees, hips, shoulders, and eyes. Try to get your eyes right over the putting line.
Next, use the big muscles of the back and shoulders to strike the ball. Don’t get your wrists or hands involved in the stroke.
You might also try different gripping methods like left-hand low or the claw.
During practice, try putting while looking at the hole, not the ball.
Make sure the stroke makes the ball roll end over end without skipping.

On long or mid putts make sure you accelerate threw the ball this helped me knock out my three putts in my first round I tried this.

a tip that really helped me is to find distances for certain backswings. so, for example, when i bring my putter back so that it is just inside my right foot, i hit the ball about 5ft. if i bring it back so it is just outside my right foot and swing, i hit the ball about 10 ft. this goes on for every distance. so, just figure out how far you hit the ball for each length of the backswing.

Ball Place is every important dit for you!
Ball Place is where and why you place the golf ball between and away from your feet.
Posture, Stance and Ball Place are very closely related. Positioning the golf ball correctly in your stance is fundamental to every great shot. A beginner will start by learning where the ball is in relation to his or her feet (closer to the left heel, closer to the right heel, or in the middle), also how far away the ball is from the feet. As your game develops you will need to learn how to adapt to uneven terrain and compensate to execute the shot. As you become an advanced golfer you will need to understand that by changing the ball position you can affect the ball’s trajectory and flight. A person’s height and club length will also play a roll in how far the ball is away from the feet.
As you practice the stance for each of your clubs as indicated below, practice a few shots in the proper stance. This will help you get a feel for how your stance should change from one club to the next.
For these basic Ball Positions we will assume you are an average height individual and on level ground.

This is Very simple take a long club such a a 4 iron and line it up to your line or the hole. place the ball right next to shaft make sure you have about 1/2 ich between ball and shaft on the ground. Your best bet is to follow that line with an even rhythmic stroke this means the longer the putt the more you want to involve some slight wrist action. any miscue will be shown immediately outside in and the putter hits the shaft and if you block the putt the ball will ricochet of the shaft as well. This drill ensures a perfect stroke some room for error but most importantly you must keep an even stroke with rhythm same distance back same distance through find your speed pick a hole and start making putt after putt then move to another hole. Its best to tweak the line to perfection then just putt away and build confidence.

First and foremost…if you putt and it takes off on you farther than the hole every time…change the golf ball on the next hole…go to a softer ball. Hitting a rock will make putting very difficult.
Relax…just try to get the ball closer to the hole, rather than trying too hard to make it in the hole…
Smile, Have fun and be able to laugh at yourself…to be able to play with someone like you with such character about themselves, is more enjoyable than playing with a scratch player tha is a hot head, and angers easy when a bird chirps while he is putting, and blames the bird from missing the putt…
