Indoor Drill #5: Laser Putting Drill

Two things can cause you to miss a putt. One is not having your putterface square to the path at impact. The other is cutting across the ball while stroking. Both errors are common mistakes among golfers. The Laser Putting Drill corrects those mistakes.

Snapping a chalk line on the green helps when practicing putting. But you can’t do that in the house. Instead, use a carpenter’s laser. Start by drawing a stripe around the middle of your ball. Then set the laser down behind the ball so it shoots a line down the carpet.

Next, place the ball on the line. Makes sure the stripe lines up with the laser line. Now putt. Practice rolling the ball so the stripe doesn’t wobble as it goes down the line. If it does, it means your putterface wasn’t square to the line at impact or you cut across the ball. Keep practicing until the line no longer wobbles.

The Laser Drill helps correct two common putting errors. Work on the drill as often as you can. Eliminating the errors takes your putting to a new level.
