The Mentality to Better Putting

Hello! On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Bryan Pemberton from the Reserve at Spanos Park. Today we are talking about putting and we are actually just kind of getting a mind here the way a good player thinks. We've got 2 putts here and what we want to determine is which putt a player would rather have. Again you are going to see 1 putt that came up just short and 1 putt that is probably 18 to 12 inches behind. When you look at this you would think maybe this ball was a better putt. From 30 feet, 40 feet this was a great putt. But this putt right here is actually a better putt because anywhere on this side, this ball right here actually had the only chance for going in. This putt right here even though it is closer never had a chance to actually go in so this would actually be the better putt. Again if you are coming down to the last hole and you need 2 putts, either one of these putts would work. If you have a putt that is going to tie a player or win the event, you are going to find this was the only ball that had a chance to go in. Even though this ball was closer, this putt is actually your better putt.
