Titleist Tips: A Better Way to Read Greens

In this video, Titleist staff member Cameron McCormick tells us that getting your putts started on line doesn’t mean a thing if you don’t read the putt properly. You’d never shoot an arrow with your eyes closed, but that’s exactly what you’re doing if you don’t putt with a confident sense of how the golf ball is going to roll, break and track its way to the cup. Instead of surrendering your putting to a wish and a prayer, you need an approach that allows your senses to take in the subtle nuances of the putting surface. And as Cameron has seen time and again with his own students, breaking your putts into smaller, separate sections will bring those nuances into sharper focus. Give Cameron’s approach a try and let us know if this different way of observing helps you to make more putts.
