What do you think about when you know spring is right around the corner?  Is it gardening, mowing the lawn, being able to walk outside without the need for 3 layers of insulation?  I’m sure for the majority of people who live in the northeast section of the United States, spring means NO MORE SNOW but for me, spring means it’s time to go golfing again.

I love the challenge of the game because it’s me against the course and it gives me an incredible amount of personal satisfaction when I can par or birdie a hole.  I would definitely like to do that on a more consistent frequency but being a weekend warrior of golf, I don’t consider a bogie unacceptable.  Double and triple bogies……well, I won’t go there because my hand shakes from frustration when I need to record one of those on my scorecard!!  If you’re a golfer, you’ll understand what I mean.

One of my goals for this golf season is to improve my putting so I can par or birdie more holes.  I’m sure you’ve heard the saying “Drive for Show and Putt for Dough.” It’s not just a cute golf phrase because truer words were never spoken. Statistics indicate that over 40% of the practice shots professional golfers take are putts and if you’ve ever watched the senior’s tour, you’d see that they compensate for their power loss off the tee with a top notch putting stroke.

So here’s a short video on putting tips that I’d like to share with all those weekend warriors striving to lower their handicap!
