3-Speed Line Drill


If you struggle with the speed and direction this is one of the best drills to improve both. I learned of this drill from Dr. Bob Rotella in his book "Putting Out of Your Mind." Find a 5-7 foot putt with some break. Try to make the putt using three different speeds.

In the picture to the right, I want the ball on the yellow line to fall in the hole on the last rotation, the red line I try to use standard speed, and for the final putt on the white line, I try to drive it in the back of the hole with some pace.

If you practice this drill, you will find your confidence from all lengths will improve dramatically. You will also see more lines and making more putts in the center of the hole!
