Start-Line Control (Tee Gate & Palms-Together Shoulder Rock)

Establish a quiet lower body and roll putts through a narrow tee gate spaced 1.5 ball-widths apart.

Key points

  • Keep lower body from hips down completely still as if encased in concrete
  • Practice a palms-together rocking drill to power the stroke purely from the shoulders without forearm twist
  • Roll 10 putts through a gate placed 7 to 8 inches in front of the ball to verify a square face at impact

Common mistakes

Shifting hips laterally or peeking early toward the hole, causing the putter face to shut and pull the ball left.
