*THIS is what I have collected from the top putting coaches in the WORLD 🌎*
Love these. Have already done tip 5 and it 100% works! Thank you Alex, another great video.
one of the best putting lessons around!
Fantastic tips!! I’ve been wooing improving my putting for the last several years. Have adopted the first 3 of your tips and have seriously improved my putting and of course lowered my scores. I can’t wait to see if your last 2 tips help even more👍
Brilliant tips, thank you!
THIS is what I've been asking for and you delivered... again! Thanks!!
I've been looking at the hole while putting for about a year now and it has improved my putting dramatically! Especially on those putts inside 10 feet.
Thank you for the putting tips Mr Alex. My hand position is helping me feel more relaxed…
I can't wait to practice this! Thank you!
You're so welcome!
Thank Alex.. I'll give these a go next time I'm practicing.. 😎👍
Top man 👌
Gday, 7 handicap & ive been struggling with the putter a bit lately. Recently average is 36 Putts a round with a few 3 putts in there. I saw this clip , put in a bit of time on the practice green working on your tips, went out and took 2 off my handicap 30 putts for the round…in particular the grip and looking forward of the ball helped me greatly 👍
Wow, great lesson. Can’t wait to try these tips. Thank you!
Thanks for another great tips Alex.🤝🏻
Great tips. I tried out the last tip to look at the flag for practice. Wow! Worked wonders. I like your store, too. Any plans on offering a long sleeve t-shirt?
Watched this morning and put in to practice today big improvement today 👍
Excellent lesson, Alex! Not quite on board with the open stance because my putting miss is a pull, but all the others are spot on.
Nice putting tips. Seems most i've hear before except looking ahead of the ball. Will try on practice green.
Thanks Alex. I’m actually pretty happy with my game tee to green, but putting costing me 4-5 strokes per round. I’ll get to work on this, or take more gimmies😅!
Awesome! I will try these tips to improve my game, tks a lot!
Damn, that last tip...i cant wait to try that.
excellent tip, been doing that for short putts.
Glad it helped
Thank you for some excellent tips.
I will give them a try.
Thank you so much Alan!!
Thanks for the little tweaks… which i have implemented this year as was always a 3/4 puts per hole… I went to our national golf shop and had a fitting and the suggested the same putters I already got(3 of them). I had cut them down think my eyes were not over the ball, went to contact lenses think it was my glasses..
So I brought a a bladed putter and added some tire weights and the additional weight has made a massive difference… squared the face and improved my putting stroke ( in my opinion).
I used you line drill and trust the read… and they going in… starting to make pars and have the chance now of birdies.
I take the looking in front of the ball to the course next week.
Thanks again for improving my game.
No problem at all Chriss. Happy to hear that these are helping you
Alex, you absolute legend. Tried tweak 3 over the last few days (eyes looking ahead of the ball) and it dramatically improved both the line and pace of my putting sinking more long distance putts and giving others a chance by getting it past the hole. Really helps consistency of strike and commitment to the speed and stops my brain overiding my body in the backswing or strike. Hope it continues !
Love this!

This video came out at exactly the right time for me. I’m a 4 handicap but I’ve been struggling with the putter for the past couple of weeks, leading to way too many high-70s and low-80s rounds. After watching and digesting this, I shot 75 yesterday and 72 this morning. Back on track! Thanks, Alex!
High 70 round is what I dream of 😂
What do you shoot on the back 9? Also 70s 80s?
czcams.com/users/shorts_7YMvOR5pAg?si=NxtL4xSeE1jaVsSr
Work sooo well! Thanks
Hey Alex,
Playing Hc 0 been struggling a bit with my putting specially the consistency of putts out of 10 plus ft.
Going to put your tweaks into practice today will give you feedback on the first game.
I have used the technique playing a round of looking at the hole while swinging and oh my, not every shot goes in, but gets so close to the cup or going in... thanks Alex that really works well
Love to hear that Eric!
@AlexElliottGolf still struggling with my driver slicing, but I just keep working to work it out. I tried the technique you showed with stepping the right foot back, strong grip, but I'm doing something else wrong cause still slicing it
Alex, when I practice your tips my putting rocks!! When on the practice green looking ahead of the ball……the putt hits centre hole. On the course, my brain blocks that out. Any drills that can help? I feel on the competitive green, my stroke will not make the forward view ahead of the ball possible!!
Hi Alex. I recently started this spot putting(as I call it) about 2 inches in front of my ball after using the alignment line on the ball to point on my intended starting line. I then just focus on rolling the ball over this spot. I was a putter for 20 years who would always focus on the putter going back and the putter woulb never go back the same way. Now I don't even think about it and just roll the ball over the spot in front of the ball. I'm averaging about eight 1 putts a round and I my 2 puts are burning the edges on the first putt. Of course you have to read the green properly and have the correct speed for each putt but now anything within 5 feet where the break is close to a half a ball or even a ball outside any edge is money! I would miss 9/10 of these before but now the makes are 9/10. Love the rest of the tips you gave. Just wanted to confirm what i've been doing recently confirms what I see in this video. I fianlly can't wait to get to the green and putt instead of the pure dread I used to feel. Very freeing and athletic!
czcams.com/users/shorts_7YMvOR5pAg?si=NxtL4xSeE1jaVsSr
Exactly what I need to work on, will take these tips to the course
You got this!
@@AlexElliottGolf hope so! I was already looking into arm lock which I don’t really want to do 😅
That's very helpful, and will get me rolling. Yet, I struggle with how to read greens, especially on putts traveling across two slopes. On longer putts, I work on speed and am conservative with allowing break.
czcams.com/users/shorts_7YMvOR5pAg?si=NxtL4xSeE1jaVsSr
I've always looked at the putter, can't explain why, but it works for me
Great coaching!
Glad you think so!
Looking ahead of the ball and envisioning putting the ball on that line has changed my game!
Thanks very much 👍🌈
This is amazing!!!!!
Alex, in regards to your last tip, do you recommend looking at the hole on lag putts? Our only when practicing before the round?
Regarding tip #3... Eyes over the ball... I recently scored a secondhand Cleveland VP5 putter, and I've seen quite a bit of improvement just from using the alignment feature on the top of the club head. Even if I miss I'm getting closer to the hole. 3 putts have consistently become 2-putts. I'm gonna try a few more of these tips to see if I can't see a bit more improvement.
Alex, you keep your elbows close to the body rather than letting you arms drop vertically.
That's the overwhelming start point for my chance of an accurate putt.
Though I disagree with placing eyes over the ball because alignment should be done prior to set up with an intermediate target (my routine), I fully agree with your #5, practice putts looking at the target. This works amazingly well to setting your tempo relative to the green conditions on a particular day. The foot open alignment is new to me but it makes sense, providing space for the hands to travel freely seems ideal and I will try this. Keep bringing these tips Alex, nicely done!
Heres one for you sir. Gone from a very fast lower body driven swing.. switched to a much less aggressive swing to take me into my later years ( easy on the body)
I'm still having trouble keeping the lower half firing to soon. Or starting to soon sliding me in front of the ball or getting out from under me making my club late to the ball.
Got any drills to get the timing better between the upper and lower body??? Thanks
Exactly what I’ve been working on! Thanks for the encouragement,Alex
You're so welcome!
Hi Alex I do think this video will help a lot. But the main help I need is the speed I hit to hard or to light any tips
I watch this and immediately put it into practice on my puttout mat and pressure putter and the results........in a word, phenomenal....really works and will be introducing into my pre round warm up.
Side note is that the TM spider mallet 72 putter?
Hi Ashley. Love to hear that!!!!
You know what I’m not sure it’s so old and I have led tape on it. I got it of a friend
@@AlexElliottGolf ironically mine was also donated to me when i first started playing around 2.5 years ago
Just …THANK YOU 🙏🏼
The Hank you so much!!
Pretty old video, but it intrigued me that the last tip was even a thing. I am a retired pool hustler and in pool, you always look at your target, which is a spot on the object ball. You never look at the cue ball once your set. The cue ball would be analogous to your putter. Once I am set, I look at the hole and simply putt the ball in the hole. It is easy. I am automatic inside 10 feet and never 3 putt. My second putt if there is one, is usually inches from the cup. I am also cross dominant so my dominant eye is closest to the hole so my nose is not in the way.
Alex it is always a challenge for me to get a divet after I hit with my irons. Pls send me tips.
Alex I had to to the claw which stopped my ‘yips’ which has proven really successful, your thoughts?
Good tip
Alex, can you explain how tip # 4 (look slightly ahead of the ball) works with tip # 5 (looking at the flag while putting)? A person can't do both tips at once. Are you saying to practice tip #5 for distance stroke feel and then do tip #4 during the final putt?
Nice one Alex
Glad you enjoyed it
Pace is my issue , fast undulating greens on my course it’s so hard to judge . Your last tip I will try today as it’s the missing link with my game cheers Alex 👍
When I first get to the practice green, I find the flattest putt. Then I turn the putter head horizontal with the front lined up with the toe of my front shoe. I line up the toe of my back shoe with the back of the putter head. I then hit a putt exactly (as possible) the width of the putter head, stopping the putter at my front foot (like Mickelson) and measure the length. Normally it comes put to around 15 to 20 feet. I now have my formula for the round, adjusting as necessary for uphill, downhill, etc. As long as your stroke speed is consistent, and you don't try to goose it, it works well. ⛳️
Yes this is a great method Bradley!!!
Think the key for me was looking at tour stats, from 5ft it was 81% last season on the PGA tour helps manage expectations
Yes exactly that is a awesome points
I’m a little confused (as usual), do I focus one inch in front of the ball, or at the hole? Thanks 🙏.
Very random question but what shoes are those @AlecElliotGolf ?
Hi Alex. Love all your putting tips here and I have been using the last tip looking at the holes for at least five years. But for me, my problem is I have hard time telling whether the put is uphill or downhill and the breaks cos if I can't read the greens properly, I feel like my good stroke wouldn't matter cos the ball would not make it to the hole or it would run by too far. And this really affects my putting confidence. Do you have any tips on how to read the greens with confidence? Thanks for all your wonderful tips!
Thank you so Much! Trying standing to the side of the putt this makes it much easier
@@AlexElliottGolf Will give it a try next time I'm at the putting green. Thanks again Alex!
Thanks!
Thank you so much!!!
@@AlexElliottGolf your frequent and short videos are terrific. Very helpful.
Alex how do I stop slicing 6iron off the tee. I use a blue tee.
James
On the practice putting green I only ever use 1 ball, and aim to take no more than 2 putts for each hole. This concentrates the mind more and ensure it is more a real life scenario rather than use 2 or 3 balls whereby you are using the previous shot to get the information needed to hole out using the next 2 or 3 balls.
Horrible idea
Im Paulie 2 putt, steady Eddie, looking at the hole and putting is terrifying to me. My most difficult put is the 1 foot put. Why is that?
What putter is that Alex. Can't see anything like it on taylormade website.... 🤔
I look at the whole on all my long putts. People think I'm weird, but it works... for me at least.
Hi Alex, what putter are you using in this video?
Ooo this is an older video, switched putters now!
Did you go to a blade?
That last cheat code works wonderfully for me
Yes love that!!!!
Why would you want your palms facing when putting... but not facing with the irons/in fuller swings?
Putter head should not be decelerating or accelerating through the ball. Ideal would be constant velocity through the stroke or very minimal acceleration, 1m/s/s or there abouts
I need help with shot making decisions during a round it never fails I make the wrong choice instead of shooting 74 I shoot 80 because of the mental struggles
Thank you
Great questions! I know this will help for sure Jimmy
I was always taught to place the ball position under your left eye so you hit the ball slightly on the upswing. This to make sure the ball rolls instead of slides when you hit it.
Like this!!
Tbh find a grip that suits you. We are all different and putting grip can be very individual
Not a fan of the dropping the ball for alignment. For me if the ball is under my eyes a straight putt will look like I'm aiming way left. Really hard to trust a putt when your alignment looks wrong from your prospective. I used a putting alignment stick to find the right distance for me, which was about a ball outside straight down.
3 handicap here, hit irons with a small draw, driver is killing my game hooking every third or fourth driver left and in bad shape. Ball position up off left foot, I don't snap my hands at impact, I don't swing left, I actually try to hit a holdoff draw with the driver. 114 swing speed, 8 degree x-stiff shaft, stealth Plus. When hit well it's great, but eventually the left hook is coming. Sooo lost right now.
Covering this tonight with a driver tip, be sure to tune in
Alex. Very important question. I had been struggling to hit a solid 3 iron . All the others I hit solid. Started tilting my body more like a driver setup. Do the Pro’s tilt more on long irons
I would stay away from standing to an iron like a driver
If you look at the flag/hole when you put, the why do you say to look just in front of the ball?
Look at the flag/hole on the practice green to get a feel for the speed. Then when your on the golf course greens look just in front of the ball!
@@1973sem AH SO.
Question: what putter is that you're using..?
Hello I don’t know how to chat with you about my unsecure golf grip
Have you tried a grip like this???
@@AlexElliottGolf we’re do I find that at?
What happened to the LAB putter, i thought that was a keeper :0
I may disagree with Tweak 5, i would rather rather start being mechanical to develop feel.
No problem :)
As the putt gets shorter, I get closer to the ball. Not the same for all putts.
The best tip for putting that I can think of is if u have a 3 ft to 8ft putt. If it's on a flat green and u av an 8ft putt then set Ur right foot 8inches from the ball and swing club back to that foot and through and you'll never be short. If u av a 3ft putt then go back 3 inch and through and never b short or if u miss too far through past the hole. And also lock Ur knees inward so no lower leg movement 👍
Will give this a try👍🏼
Hello the same can apply with up and downhill putts but you just take a third off or put a third on if it's up hill. What I generally do before I go on the coarse is go back ten inch on the practice green and through and measure how far the ball travels. Hope this helps but the locking of the needs is a must 👍
Knees
Practice green to get a “datum point”, never thought about this, thank you
No problem Ur very welcome I very rarely 3 putt with this in mind I also use my putter as a plumb bob to calculate the break 👍
Please. The movement of shoulders and arc of swing....many type of putters, face inclinated, or face on top..etc. many differents putters whit de weigth of head, toe..etc.😢
The tip about your eyes on top of the ball is wrong for most. Great putters eyes are inside the putting line in over 75% of top pros
A Rory McIlroy putting tip helped me. Stand between the ball and the hole on the low side and notice any level changes. Then stand behind and ball and ask myself it I hit the ball at the hole, where would go? If I think it will go a foot to the left, aim a foot to the right. I knocked off 3 putts around doing this. I may not sink the putt but it will go right by it.
Do you know who never putted with their eyes over the ball? Nicklaus... 🤷♂️
You never want your eyes directly over the ball. You will not see the line properly.
All this has nothing to do with anything. Learning how to actually putt does. And that takes a lot of investigation and many hours of practice. Follow the teachings of Stan Utley and Ben Crenshaw. Tiger has some good input to. It is mostly about blade rotation and how to NOT have it when on a tilted plane. Ben especially talks about HOW to reduce rotation. And that gets to light grip, and blade release where the putter is put into it's own momentum which takes the person themselves out of the putt. SBST is the kiss of death. When putting on a tilted plane you must go to the arc in order to take out actual blade rotation relative to that plane. Square to the plane and square to the target are TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT THINGS. And by the rules of golf, you must putt on a tilted plane. Start by learning what a proper putting stroke on a tilted plane actually is. Virtually nobody but touring pros do this. That is why there are so few touring pros who can make a living at playing golf. There is a reason some pros male 58 out of 58 inside t0 feet for the week. Accept that as a fact and start there.
If you can get 10 put in a row then I might believe that😂
Putting is the one and only golf shot/swing in the game of golf that you don't have any set stance/grip/rules/putter length/putter head/etc.....so "tips" are pointless. Stand how you want, as narrow/wide as you want, put your hands how you want, lean as much as you want, swing how you want. The goal is to just be comfortable and learn to judge the putting LINE and SPEED. That's it.
🏌🏌🏌🏌🏌
Thank you
Rory and JT are a couple of the worst at this putting thing😂
Nothing new here.
Hi Alex. Like your CZcams pages. However Disagree with you on a couple of things. While wet and windy weather tests the players in golf what about the paying spectators? I've been to opens when there has been torrential rain and its not enjoyable. I would much prefer it to be dry. You said par 3's that are too long and difficult are stupid. This may be true for handicap golfers but for tour players the par of a hole is really irrelevant. The goal is to play any hole in the least shots possible for a pro. Calling it a long par 3 or a short par 4 doesn't matter
What a crock
Nothing new here
Thank you for your encouragement Alex, exactly what i have been practising on the practice greens at my local course!! I will be taking this video with me this weekend 🏌♂️💯🏌♂️ Thanks again for making this quick 5 technique video
Sounds great! I can’t wait to hear how you get on with this!
