Putting Tip: Distance Control

  I can't putt, make no progress.

  I miss lots of putts inside 10 feets, don't judge the line well, not a distance problem  but just don't arrive to judge well the line, my putt finish just next too the hole.

  My last exemple, 66 on kiawah, all the holes inside 10 feets for birdie, miss almost  everything, and when i make the putt,  is when i'm just 3, 4 feets of the hole.

  I hear you on that, Michele.  Kiawah is the most difficult course for me to putt.  Every putt outside 4 feet seems to break one way and then the other.  Some of the breaks that the greens show are not accurate, I don't believe.  Putts that show a break one way but don't break at all.. or vice versa.

  Thank you  CM, i'm confused, just lost my confidence in my putts with that.

  When i have an approach, i said too myself, michèle, glue the ball near the hole lol, or you'll miss the putt for birdie, if not inside 5 feets

  And after that, i sleep bad, thinking of all the putts i miss lol

  Oh just see your a tour legend player, congratulation, impressive stats CM

  My putting is bad most times i;ve tryed missing the ding and the reverse view.

  seems everything i do is wrong i have 2 lost my confidence in my game.

  Plus like he said some of it is due 2 bad camera angles wish they would fix it.

  I feel a bit silly asking this as a legend but my question is in the video for better clarification.
