When putting, you have to consider the swing and grip carefully because these are not the same as the long drive. You have to prepare the grip by holding the putter or putting club in the palms of your hands. The idea is to minimize hand movement. When doing the long drive, the finger grip is different since you have to get more action from the wrist. The interlocking grip is a special grip in which the small finger of the right hand will interlock with the index finger of the other hand. It is one of the best grips for putting. You can also try the two approaches to know the difference. Use a golf club or another item with similar dimensions to compare the difference then try making mock swings in front of a mirror. Follow the guidelines properly or hire a golf coach.
Putting will require a gentler approach compared to the long drive. You have to prepare the swing well using your grip and good posture. Stay relaxed and aim to hit the ball so it moves towards the cup comfortably.
Once you reach the putting green, avoid delays when hitting the ball. You might get tense and make bad shots instead. Also check the golf flags to guide you in the right direction. Your body should stay relaxed. Breathe in and then exhale as you hit the ball. Draw an imaginary line from the golf ball to the cup. Look beyond the ball so you can locate the putting green flag and bring the ball into the hole.
