Sweet Spot
The sweet spot on a club is where the ball meets with it, and is then launched with perfect accuracy. You should practice with your clubs to identify the sweet spot of each, and remember to bring the spot into contact with the ball at the absolute extremity of your downward swing.
While putting, use your left hand to guide the ball by making sure it is slightly in front of the ball. When you are swinging the club do your best to hold this position. This will help you maintain the appropriate grip on the club during your stroke, and will make it less likely that the ball will dart off of the face of the club during contact.
If you need to make a long putt, focus mostly on the speed that you hit the ball with. Although you may be tempted to directly target the hole, you’ll typically achieve better results by choosing an intermediate target. You will be more likely to get a second short putt if you control the length of your first one.
