I found a great way to putt!!!!!!!!!!?

Question

Putt just like you would chip. I practicing my lag putting today and I always have had a hard time with 2 putting long putts but I have great feel when I chip. Today I couldn't 2 putt for the life of me so I decided to putt like I chip. I put my feet together, opened my stance, and played the ball a little back in my stance. I did not take more than 2 putts the rest of the practice!!!! Even my 6-8 footers were money.

If you are having problems lag putting or putting in general, give this a try. I have been hating putting lately but now I can't wait to get on the green and give it a try in a practice round.

Good luck all!!!

Answer 1

Glad you found something that works for you.  Often opening up the stance gives you a better look at the line of the putt so hope it continues for you.

Answer 2

Often, a change will work as a quick fix, especially with putting.  It gives you a quick shot of confidence, just like coffee with caffeine.  But soon it wears off and you're right back where you started. I hope I'm wrong. Good luck!!
