The brand new golfer can walk on to the green and strike that white ball then watch it drop in the hole without blinking an eye where as the seasoned golfer is shaking in his or her cleats terrified about what is about to take place during that six foot path to the hole. When it comes to improving your putting it is all about getting over that mental hurdle that does not affect the new player.
The new golfer has not played countless rounds so he or she is not burden with the memories of the last blown two foot putt for all they care about is getting the ball into the hole. As a golfer I have read a ton of information on the best techniques, how to read the putts and what to do in any situation and all of this is rushing through my head as I am about to take a putt that may make or break my round. In this situation I have already lost for what the golf master preach is to go to that place deep in your mind and become the ball. You can see this in action with high level PGA pros who know that their twenty five foot monster putt was not a fluke but a combination of technique, skill and mental fortitude.
This is going to sound weird but you need to be able to control your mind in order to improve your putting. The most technological advance putter on the planet is not going to help you if your hands and knees are shaking uncontrollably and the thought of that last blown putt in running through your mind. Each new putt may be the first one of the hundred greatest putts in your life as long as you remain in control.
