"Star" Putter

In order to be a clutch putter you have to practice making clutch putts. Set up the ‘Star’ drill by placing four balls in five different lines around the hole. The first ball should be placed two feet from the hole while the others are positioned farther away in one-foot increments making the fourth ball five feet from the hole. Begin by putting all of the two-foot putts and move outward to the three-foot golf balls and so on. See how far you can go by making consecutive putts. Once you miss, set them up again and strive to get further along than the time before.
