This is one problem that I have certainly struggled with over the years. It goes something like this…

You take too long of a backswing with your putter on a short putt, realize that you have made a mistake mid swing and try to correct it by decelerating your putter through the ball.

Sound familiar?

Here’s a golf swing tip that you can take to the practice green that will help you accelerate through the ball on short putts.

Place a tee a few inches behind where you address the golf ball. With the tee in place, it will limit your backswing and force you to accelerate through the ball to get it to the hole.

This drill will help promote greater rhythm in your putting stroke and alignment on your follow-through.

Good luck, Bryan
