1. can you reach green in regulation? If yes, then putting is for sure your problem. If no then next question: |
Big yes from me. That's why putting is my biggest weakness.... |

Short game is the most importance. But psychology plays an important role, too. Patience and practice... |

| I pulled this from one of the article/ research:
The number of GIRs affect overall score the most.
Score-# of GIR
71 - 12
75 - 10
79 - 8
81 - 7
85 - 5
89 - 3
91 - 2
95 - 0
99 - 0
If you are on GIR more often then every first putt is a birdie chance and 2nd putt for par.
If you are mostly scrambling then every first putt is to save par and 2nd putt is bogey.
Everything else will have to improve if you focus on improving your GIR > fairway %, average putts > sand saves etc.
Cavaet: No major penalties/ blow
To get more pars, you have to be in a position for birdie chance and 2nd putt for pars.
If you are mostly trying to save par, without giving yourself a chance for birdie then difficult to drop from bogey to par.
My coach only recently advised me to be more aggressive especially on par 5s and long par 4s instead of laying up (conservative) if I want lower scores. |

That really true very good article .....
if u know ur putting not working ... most player also try 100 % power for every iron ... next time u go to green if u got 145 meter exept of taking 9-iron take 75 % 8 iron i tell u u will hit more green n make more par ... after that u got to work on putting n short game |

| I usually get 10 GIRs for a good day but still can't see my score go down....
putting is my forte usally 2 putts for average 18 holes.
