Hey guys! Andrew McCombe here the founder and CEO of Golf University and this Golf
University tip from the Pro, I'm with Mark Gibson the head pro at the RACV Royal

great cutting setup technique that's going to help us feel more confident
consistent and in control of our putting game but before we start and if you

program from one of our world-class golf instructors so that you can feel more
confident consistent and in control of this area of your game but before I help
you find and fix this area of your game let's find out how to get better contact
consistency and control with our putting this tip from the pro brought to you by
golf University the world's premier golf improvement program we want to make you
a good putter and to do that you have to have consistency control and from those
two will come your confidence to develop that you need to have two components you
need to have a very good technical structure where we were just about to
teach you that now you need to have solid mental skills that we're going to
address later in the series but what about the technical skills that we need
our goal first up is to make sure that we get the ball rolling properly and to
test that I use this board and the two colored balls what we want to see is we
want to see the ball contacted with the putter when the putter makes contact we
want the ball to skid and then go into a roll that roll should be even on both
sides so it'll roll normal
the things that we don't want is we don't want the slice spin where the ball
will flight or we don't want a hook spin which will make the ball roll this way
from the ball rolling left both of those will impact on your direction and your
control so how do we get this good technical component it's not all that
difficult there's a couple of parts of this that they're really relating to
setup so from front on I want to see the ball positioned about two inches left in
my sternum that's for the right hander I want to see my feet nice and wide so
that my legs will give me a stable base you never see a building where the base
is narrower than the top we need that base nice and wide the other thing that
I want to happen is I want you over the top of the ball so that your eyes are
directly on top of the line and that way you're able to aim properly that's also
going to help you stroke be very neutral which will give us that roll that we
want so here's the example that's a good
looking set up ball position wise now I've tucked my elbows in by my side my
stable base is here and now I'm going to move the putter by moving my chest now
what I've got here is the feeling of my elbows in which is a lock and I make my
chest move which is a rock and that's a really good short phrase to practice
lock and rock that'll give you the stroke that will get that ball roll that
we want well there it is so hope you've enjoyed this golf university tip from
