"After completing this putting improvement program I have more confidence and accuracy in putting, and better relaxation for every shot.

I've never seen anything like this as most putting tuition I've seen covers the basics of picking the line, setup and stroking. But yours goes not a step further, but a mile further on every aspect of the task, and the feedback from the aids is invaluable in helping the player to see their faults.

The putting drills you gave us give a clear explanation of what to do and then in many cases you get feedback on whether you are doing it right.

Now I have confidence in my putting and improvements in accuracy. This means I'm playing better golf."


"The long game improvement program has improved my ball striking consistency as I don't have as many wild shots as I used to.

I think the instructions were easy to follow. Like I said, I used to hit a lot of shots to the right, and now they are infrequent. I think it is because I now realize my cocking of the wrists should be directly on plane and not as much inside as I used to do it. I think there is less manipulation of the clubhead when done properly.

I have never seen a swing improvement product that has such quality and so much information. It's great for a golf nut like myself.

I'm very happy I have finished the program because my scores are down and I feel like I am hitting the ball in a more solid manner. I also have fewer really bad rounds, which means I am able to get back to hitting it pretty good after losing it for a few holes.

I enjoy playing golf more now because it's always fun to score better. You are a dedicated student of the game and teacher and it shows in your material. It's fun to learn from a golf nut like I am."


"Your instructions are very easy to understand and follow. Your use of pictures and very detailed step by step instructions, make it very easy to accomplish each task.

I already feel much more positive that I am doing what it takes to be better at putting. The repetitive nature of the exercises has made it fairly easy to transfer the same habits to the golf course and was pleased to see that I was remembering most if not all of the correct steps.

I like it because it is comprehensive, treating every aspect of the putt to include relaxation and instilling confidence which I know is very critical to the success of my shots. For the first time since I started playing the game, I can feel what I am doing right and wrong and know what to do to correct it.

That's a very enjoyable feeling.

I could feel a very different thought pattern especially prior to a putt. I felt more comfortable and confident standing over each shot because I was only worried about the process. I also feel more strongly that I should have done better when I do not hit a good putt as my expectations on my performance have also increased and so need to add yet more mental control. I used to worry about my grip and setup and those things do not seem to enter into the equation.

We have had some fairly bad weather here in Virginia recently but I have managed to get in two rounds and even with the greens in less than perfect shape, had total putts of 29 and 31 which I know is at least 3-4 strokes better than when I started because I was at 35.8 when starting the course.

Biggest difference is that I no longer have to think about HOW I am going to putt the ball since I have totally ingrained every part of the process so all I have to think about is where I want to putt the ball.

Reading the line is entirely about being able to see and feel the correct line and using your drill during the last month, will give me that feel with additional practice.

Ok I admit it, I used to be deathly afraid of the 3-6 foot putt and now, that fear simply does not exist so one result is that my confidence has increased significantly. My timing and rhythm has improved noticeably (again by the guys I play), when I make a mistake, I know what I did wrong, and bottom line, I not only think but also feel that I am a good putter.

Fewer putts has lowered my over all score which I know has had the immediate effect of giving me a lot more confidence in my game as a whole and I know that will continue to drive my score lower and lower and fully expect that this training will drive my average below 90 (from 94) for the first time this year.

Before, I had a vague notion that I needed to practice more and hoped that my score would improve. Now I know without a doubt that my score will improve and I know what to practice to drive it even lower. I have always enjoyed the game of golf, but it is almost difficult to describe how much more I enjoy it now which gives me the motivation to continue working at it until I break 80 and then to my first par for the course.

Your program covered ALL aspects of the game that that alone added to my confidence that I will be a better putter. It's the total package. Its mental, physical, and practice which creates feel. I didn't have to think about, ok I have this problem so I need to do that. I just trusted you had it all in there and all I had to do was perform the drills.

I have seen various books on how to putt better and most of those describe the problems I should be looking at like fear, but do not give black and white and highly detailed things that I can do to over come those problems.

I do not have to think about my technique which immediately eliminates one of the largest problems most people have (worrying about what they are doing right or wrong).

I know I am doing it right and if I pick the right line, I WILL MAKE THE PUTT."


"The biggest benefit from completing this long game improvement program has been giving me a plan I can check with to try to improve with and your explaining the reasons why a certain drill needs to be practiced over and over to get it correct. I also now have a definite setup routine which is a great way to start the swing.

This program helped me hit the ball straighter and more consistently. The best thing I liked about the program was how well it was organized, the steady progression of the swing, and the reviews of the video clips were most helpful.

I thought most everything about the program was terrific. I haven't seen anything like this before and I’ve never been involved in anything like this and I guess the best thing about it was your feedback on the videos.

I am happy I've completed this long game improvement program and I feel the best thing is that I know I have a lot more to learn and practice and now have a game plan of drills to practice. I enjoy playing golf more after completing this program."


"I'm much consistent now and have increased confidence that the ball is going in the direction that I intend it to!

This program has reduced my H'cap by 3 shots in winter..changed my swing....no longer do I get comments that my club does a figure 8 on my back swing I now have far more confidence when I step up to the ball,and when I make a mistake,I know how to correct it!

This program has helped me to understand the "mechanics"of the golf swing... cause and effect! I've never seen anything like this a b c approach...It,s Great!

I am very pleased that I done your program....I have a far greater understanding of the mechanics of the golf swing. My swing has changed and my confidence in my game has increased 10 fold. I now enjoy playing golf more now after completing this program because of the increased confidence I have gained by your methods ...I enjoy my golf far more now. No longer, do I stand up behind the ball, with negative thoughts about my next tee shot. Nick...Thank you for making a difference to my game."

"Before I started this putting improvement program my putting average per round was 36.8. After completing the program my putting average is 28.6!

I now have a set routine I go through before each putt, even the short ones. This has helped my confidence in setting up to a putt. I am also aware of my breathing and am mentally more balanced over the ball. No more negative thoughts.

My putting is now not holding back my golf game.

I have read golf books which have sections on putting but they only scratch the surface. This program rebuilds your putting game from scratch plus much more.

I am happy I have completed this putting improvement program. I feel now I have a good understanding of the mechanics of the putting stroke and can fall back on it if necessary.

I enjoy playing golf more now after completing this putting program because the putting side of my game is under control. I liked the fact that you had to forget about everything you had done in the past and rebuild a new putting game."

 

"The log game improvement program has improved my ball striking consistency as I don't fade or slice the ball so much and hit it further After completing this long game program I can now keep my game "on track" by referring to your lessons without trying to solve my mistakes myself. I also realise that I will make mistakes but accept them as part of the game. I feel more relaxed even if I have a bad day. I also think that I will improve more as I get used to my new swing.

The instructions were easy to understand and follow although sometimes I found it hard to understand some instructions but that was mainly due to my misinterpretation not due to the instructions but an email soon cleared this up.

This program has definitely helped me to hit the ball straighter, more consistently. I do not slice/fade the ball so much [rarely in fact] .

I liked this program because it started from the very beginning and therefore the bad habits I had were eliminated along the way.

I'm happy I've completed this long game improvement program because I now have a complete idea as to how the swing works....I feel I know enough about the swing to be able to have a consistent approach to every golf shot. Also I definitely enjoy playing golf more now after completing this program. I'm much more confident about my swing even though I still hit poor shots I accept these. I'm more relaxed and do not try cures or fixes ...I go through my preshot routine and hit the ball. Thanks!"

"I'm feeling more comfortable with my putter. Also more relaxed and confident. I'm doing less thinking when putting. The instructions are explained very well. I can see the putts going in before I putt.

My confidence level has skyrocketed. Knowing I can make the putt and just putt. I believe I can make every putt I take. I attribute this to confidence and frame of mind

I use to worry will I miss this putt. Now I think about the ball going in the cup I have felt more relaxed and in tune with my inner self. Being relaxed while playing golf does wonders for the game.

My putting has improved so much. I feel confident and know that I can make any putt. My stroke no longer has the yips, it's a nice smooth swing.

I feel like I can compete with anyone. I an thankful that you allowed me to be a part of this revolutionary method of learning to putt the right way. I enjoy golf 110 % more now. And once on the green I am king. Thank you."


"Before I started following this long game program I didn’t (for didn’t read couldn’t) use my driver at all and hit everything off the tee with my 3 iron. What I can say is that I can now use my driver and feel fairly confident that I’m going to hit the fairway and that I’m much longer off the tee with both my woods and irons

The worst score of my last five games (91) is the same as my best score for the five games I played when I first started the lessons. What’s more I regularly score in the 80’s now and know I can get lower than that with more practice.

I’d say the biggest benefits of following the long game program are that I’ve now got a much better understanding of the mechanics of a sound golf swing. Now that I understand what I’m looking for I’ve been able to spot a number of areas in my swing that I can improve and by following Nick’s analysis I now feel much more confident about being able to keep on making improvements.

The instructions were very easy to understand and if I there was anything I didn’t fully understand I could always contact Nick and ask for clarification… Not that I needed to do this very often as the instructions were presented very clearly.

Before starting this course the majority of my bad shots were slices. Now I very rarely slice the ball. The only time a slice rears its ugly head is if I get over aggressive and take a wild slash with my driver off the tee. This doesn’t mean I don’t hit bad shots any more but my poorer ball strikes tend not to be as costly as they used to be…. and there aren’t as many of them.

The long game program takes you through every aspect of the swing from the basics of grip, posture etc. and on to the more difficult to grasp parts of the swing such as the transition and explains the entire swing in an easy to digest way. The program keeps your focus on a small part of the swing at any one time so you can work on that particular aspect of the swing in isolation.

I’ve never seen anything like this before. I’m very happy that I’ve completed the long game program. I’d say the best thing about going through the lessons is that I now feel much more confident about being able to take my game to the next level. I still need to keep working on making my swing better I now have the tools to analyse my own swing and see where I need to make improvements. What’s more I’ve been shown the drills and exercises that I can do to improve those parts of my swing that I need to keep working on.

Yes I enjoy playing golf more now. The answer as to why is easy. I’m now a better golfer!"


"Nick's Long Game program has definitely improve my ball striking consistency. Having played golf for only 18 months before starting “the Long game” I received considerable amount of advice as I was slicing badly, inconsistency was a hallmark, you grasped onto lots of theories when starting and I did not have a base to work from.

Committing to a path was a relief. I now strike the ball of the tee cleanly (straight) without topping, slicing, skying but to name a few that playing partners on low handicaps are asking me for advice yet I am on 18 handicap.

There is still more yet to improve on but I have cemented a base that I am now repeating the section on distance and power.

The biggest benefits after completing this program are that now off the tee I aim where I want the ball to go and can trust it being in play. Distance is generally equal or further to lower handicappers I play against. Lateral water hazards, out of bounds are no longer fear factors. I now have to consider the risk of driving through the fairway on doglegs. I have got rid of the shanking it is the most frightening thing to address the ball not knowing if you are going to hit someone on the adjoining fairway, the boost in confidence is immense.

The instructions are abc, they give you the feeling which is the most important part in the learning process. I suffered a bit from not asking Nick enough advice; one of the critical components I struggled with was the setup (distance from the ball) which is almost the first lesson. Not playing golf for long meant I had limited experience to call on part way through the course I had to revisit that aspect as I didn’t say I was struggling on that aspect. Even though now I can reflect and see it was well explained sometimes you can release your own ideas. The best advice is you must trust the program and commit, you will improve.

When I started I was hitting 5.4 fairways per round now I am hitting 11 the rest is only in the first cut or short rough. My personal target was 10.

After completing the program I know how to analysis what I am doing wrong and go back to the lessons to check what I am meant to do. Having the material to continually refer back to is huge

I have made large investments into books, magazines, the drills are the key. I have not seen most of the drills in ‘the long game’ in any of the literature. I am extremely happy that I have completed this long game improvement program as I have a complete picture and can categorically say the plan delivers a complete program to achieve consistency and a low handicap.

It comes down to how much you commit to the program. I am repeating the course as it is now summer and daylight saving and I want to repeat parts and commit more time as I believe single figure handicap is achievable. 18 was my target but now I have a path to get to single figures and know I can get there and not too far away either.

Saying I enjoy playing golf more now after completing this program is the understatement of the year. I I was about at the point of giving golf away. I have played a large number of sports to a very competitive level. I found golf to be the most frustrating sport I have ever played. I started by getting coaching lessons with an aim to reducing the startup grief but it was a roller coaster ride and even though I put considerable amount of time in practicing I was not getting the rewards.

The commitment in time vs the improvement was not looking good. Luckily ‘the long game’ came along and gave me renewed hope, at the start there was improvements but there are still ups and downs due to the changes you are making and you haven’t the whole picture. But it is all logical and you just have to stay committed, lean on Nick if you struggling (my mistake) and commit."

"Since starting this program my putting has improved by 14.4 putts per round.

Before starting this program I averaged 42.4 putts per round. Now I average 28 putts per round!

Everything about my putting game has improved, starting from my position over the ball, confidence, putter alignment, rhythm, and speed control. My whole attitude has changed when it come to the putting game.

What you've explained and demonstrated in this program, are the things I've struggled with for a long time and you have a way of making the hard easy.

I've paid a lot of money on lessons and books but no one has explained it this way. I understand now about ball position, grip, posture and confidence.

The biggest benefits for me are lower scores per round, I played golf for 8 years and I have never been under par until now.

I have read articles and books on how to improve your putting and I also paid for putting lesson, and what I have learned from this putting program I have never seen been taught anything like this. The simple instruction, photo and demonstration make it difference from any other.

I am happy that my putting game has improved a great deal, and that I have not wasted my time on something that doesn't work."


"Before this program I was just hoping for the best as never real sure where my ball would end up. Now, I can predict if not wish where my ball will end up, more often. You have turned me into a confident golfer, as witnessed by my friends. They marvel at my course management and the ability to execute as planned. Instead of just belting the ball with my driver, I now use almost all clubs to their best advantage, and know when to lay up and when to go for it.

To explain such complex moves as a golf swing using words and pictures is a very challenging task, but somehow you have managed to convey your instructions successfully. Especially where you use movies and simple gadgets for the training exercises, that is the most valuable part. I do not need to purchase expensive training equipment or video or DVDs to receive instructions from you.

The lessons are presented in a logical and easy to follow fashion.

The program has helped me to hit the ball better. Previously, although I can hit the ball straight most of the time, the distance is limited. If I tried to get more distance, it would almost curve to the right. Now, not only can I gain more distance and end up on the middle of fairway, I can shape my drives and shots, as you have explained how my club/shaft would behave at impact, and the effect on ball flight. You have corrected my notion of how the club should come from the inside to impact, whereas previously I would takeaway sharply to the inside so as to have the club come back from the inside, etc. Such wrong notions were explained and proven to me using videos of my own swing.

Now with my new found or acquired ability, I sometimes deliberately use something different just to test my ability to shape shots, so my shots may not always be straight, but always successful to some degree the way I wanted it to be so.

You have also explained away some of the myths or misconceptions of the golf swing, like keep your head down, return to the same position as setup, cock your wrist, keep your arms straight, but most of all, the correct attitude towards golf and the real secret of playing well.

I haven't seen anything like this, especially on such a personalised level. Most instructions I find on the internet are generalised, and I never know if I have executed them correctly. This program is all inter-related, and it gives a firm basis for me to make my swing repeatable, or in other words consistent.

I am most happy with this long game improvement program as it is just about the 3 things - consistently hit the fairways, make greens in regulation, and better distances. Very often, my friends on the course would find me say especially after a "good" shot: "Thank you, Nick Bayley." Like you said, the long game is the beginning shot of every hole, and when successful, would give so much pleasure and generate great confidence for the next shot, and so throughout the game.

I just can't wait to start the next game. With me not getting younger and golf skills not getting better, this program is the best thing that has happened to me. Although only on the long game program, and not completing the other skill systems, my handicap is the lowest I have ever achieved, despite my advancing age. I have won at my local competitions, something that has not happened for a long time. While the admiration of my friends are important, but most of all, this program has given me the freedom to enjoy the game, of shaping my shots at will, instead of just wondering or hoping that the ball would fly forward somehow.

Like I mentioned before, I wish I had known you 10 years ago. A big hearty Thank You to you again, Nick. Thank you for letting me know the secrets of hitting the ball."

"The putting improvement program is easy to understand. Your explanation of the set-up has revealed to me a better posture, a way to achieve more consistency with the set-up, and how to relax. I can see the importance of each of these components of your program.

I am developing a very positive attitude about putting and my putter.

My set up is much more consistent. I have developed a good pre-shot routine. I have much more confidence and feel more relaxed. I know how to put my eyes over the ball, now.

I feel much more confident about putting and look forward to it. I attribute this to the repetition of positive statements and believing in my pre-shot routine and set up.

My routine is more consistent and methodical. I have more confidence that I can make a consistent stroke. I sink 4-8 foot putts with much more regularity. This program is much more detailed and practical. It breaks down the routines and skills of putting in such a way that I can remember them and have built new habits in place of old habits that were not successful in the past.

Sinking short putts is the secret to improving my score. I still have trouble with hitting 50 foot putts close, but I feel very confident that I will sink every 4-8 foot putt. That is like a miracle!

These instructions were easy to understand because of the pictures and detail of directions. I think that this program is far easier to follow than any others. Nothing compares!"


"With Nick's Long Game Improvement Program my ball striking consistency has improved. My swing is much smoother and I rarely hit shots fat. I am hitting the ball very straight.

After completing this program I am striking the ball far better than I was and as a consequence of that I am scoring more consistently. I understand what is going on in my swing much better.

Before starting with the program I pulled a lot of shots and faded others. I am now not coming over the top and I feel my swing is much better than it was. I am very accurate and rarely in trouble.

I liked the disciplined approach and some of the drills were very innovative and excellent. Haven’t seen anything like this before. It is different because it is personal and you can work at your own pace. I liked the idea of trying to groove each aspect before going on, and in the past instruction has always seemed to be on the complete swing when I really only had the ability to concentrate on one aspect at a time.

I am happy to have completed the program. I now have a really solid base to work on. I enjoy the much better ball striking that I am achieving and the better results. Thanks Nick."

P.S. When John started following the Long Game Improvement Program last year his handicap was 14.3. And I've just checked now and his handicap is 9.9 which I know is his lowest ever because just before Christmas John sent me this email:

Not too bad for a 68 year old!

"The instructions were easy to follow. The pictures made the procedures clear. By repeating the procedures over and over they become ingrained and comfortable with the result on the course you don't have to think about them.

When I set up over the putt I feel confident that I have the proper grip, set up and ball position. This frees my mind to think about line and distance without the apprehension my grip or ball position is wrong.

The written instructions backed up with pictures and video make the procedures clear and easily understood.

By repeating the tasks over and over I know what I am going to do on the green and do it the same each time. I do not try something different every time I miss a putt.

I haven't had more than 36 putts in a round. Before I would get 38-42 putts in a round. A 20 foot putt used to be an automatic 3 putt in my mind. Now I feel I can get down in 2 or less. I now set up and putt faster because I don't do it different each time.

The details you provide leave no doubt as how to proceed.

Before this putting improvement program I would have a round about every 10 where I would have 40 or more putts. For more than 30 rounds my highest is 35. This has made golf less stressful and more enjoyable. I do enjoy playing more as I do not have the embarrassment of 40 - 42 putts with 7 or more 3 putts in a round."

"The instructions are very clear. I like the way you have broken down the instructions into easy step by step activities. The photos were clear, but the summaries, e.g. on the grip, were a nice addition, allowing the message to be reviewed. The daily checklist was great, it gave a structure to the program and an easy way to follow.

I like the idea of the grip and that the club is always held at the same place. I like the routine to make it a process than a worry about making the putt. I liked the easy to follow instructions. I liked the fact that I now have my own putting station at home and one that I understand!

Mentally, I have never been afraid of putting, I always enjoy it, But I have been tentative with my putting especially when I have been trying to break a personal low score. Now, I am simply confident on all 18 holes. That feeling of confidence gives me a boost. In my last round of 31, I didn't think I was putting any better than normal, but when I added up the putts, it was 'wow' I shot 31 putts and it could so easily have been 28!

Any putt within about 8-9 feet, I really do feel that I can make it. In fact, mentally if I am in that range, I am thinking that I will make it. Before, I used to think about leaving a tap-in, now I think I can hole it out. This is purely based on knowing that I have a solid set up, I can pick a good line and I can get the ball rolling. If I get these things done, then I know that the putt is good and I'm less concerned if it didn't go in, but I do think that I can nail it.

The biggest benefits of completing this program are

a) I have a 'system', a putting station, a feedback mechanism

b) I have a mental strategy

c) I have a way to mentally work on the putting

Although the course is now complete, I feel I am only beginning and with more time I can only get better. I feel I have a great system, a feedback process and I feel that I can get into the 20's!

I'm more confident in my putting, even if I miss a practice, I feel like it didn't impact me because in between I was able to spend some time practicing mentally. Every round I play I feel that I can break 30 putts, this alleviates the need to hit it close to the pin and play safer shots into the green.

The bottom line is the number of putts per round, I've seen a consistent drop here. I'm not into the 20's yet, but I believe I will be. I've had several 30 putt rounds, and all of these had lip outs! So I know it's possible and within reach. I have a strategy for the putting part of the game and that creates confidence."

"I feel much more comfortable with the shorter putter and the shoulder-driven style; the routine takes some pressure off for critical putts, and I have more trust in my action - I am always changing my styles of swinging and putting, thinking and analysing a lot, so this is a new feeling. Above all, I enjoy putting more now.

I like the structured approach, and the idea that I am doing something to improve, rather than just hitting balls at a hole.

Increased confidence that I am becoming more consistent.

Yes definitely I have more confidence now. I know that I am swinging the way that is most likely to achieve good results. There is less variation in set-up and putting action during a round - and I don't experiment with different styles between rounds.

I believe I can hole every putt now. I am even a bit surprised when putts don't go in. It is a combination of having a better stroke, knowing I have a better stroke, seeing more putts going in, and of course the affirmations.

I've never seen anything like this before as you put together a complete program of work, not just a few practice routines and a mental exercise or two. The biggest benefits of completing this putting program are that I have more confidence, more consistent stroke, no desire to change style every week. Better scoring, noticeably better long putting."

"The instructions are very straightforward and easy to understand and follow. I am more confident in my putting stroke. Without question I am sinking many, many more 5-10 footers.

My putting has become much more "automatic". Much less paralyzed by thoughts, therefore my stroke is much smoother and reproducible. I really feel that I am hitting the putts the way I want to.

Attitude and confidence has definitely improved- because, I now know that my stroke is going be the same from putt to putt.

My putting has definitely improved. I have the same routine for each putt eliminating all the doubt and hesitation that used to creep into my putting. My stroke is reproducible and consistent and online much more often.

I haven't seen anything like it before. I think the detailed explanation of the logic behind everything is unique, and the repetition that makes the stroke second nature is also critical to the program.

I'm very happy to have completed the putting improvement program. I am a much more confident putter and it has helped me to lower my scores.

I enjoy golf as much as ever- but I really enjoy pulling my putter out of the bag a great deal more than in the past. My distance control has improved the most in the last 30 days I feel much better about my distance control, and, as you know that is vital to reducing the number of 3 putt greens. Overall, just alot more comfortable on the greens.

I think you have a great program. Obviously very well thought out, and one that has definitely improved my putting. It's changed my putting and my experience on greens in a positive and permanent way. Thank you! Best wishes always, Brad"

"The instructions are very easy to understand and follow. Great diagrams and step by step instructions on getting the information you wanted. Improvement has been seen. Making longer putts more consistently.

I like the beginning the detailed instructions. Combining the mental game with the physical. I now have a feeling of confidence and knowing the routine. Also, greater consistency.

I appreciated the different things to work on - variety.

I am happy I have completed this program because it has made me focus on practicing what is needed to make e a better putter. Very detailed instructions and organization.

Great program - thanks so much for the opportunity to help me improve my putting. Thanks Nick!"

"The instructions in this putting improvement program are easy to understand and follow as the photos along with the text make it very easy to imitate the suggested actions.

When I started this program it felt strange at first as it was new and different. But after days of repetition it feels more normal and confidence in the program is increased after getting more consistently good results.

I like having a detailed program to follow as it provides a consistent setup. A more confident putting stroke and mindset are the big improvements.

Better results have improved my confidence. Also, I am more consistent now. More putts are staying on line and I don't feel so fearful now when making putts.

The biggest benefits of completing this program have been improved confidence and a routine to follow. I have less fear when putting now so that is a big plus. A better sense for distance and fewer 3 putts. It's great to have many different drills to practice.

And I most liked the diversity of the program ; mechanics, drills and mental training. Since starting the program I'm more relaxed and have a better feel for distance."

"I am way more confident and relaxed...more sure of myself. I can definitely see improvement in my putting...especially on short putts. I used to miss a lot of short putts and would always be nervous when putting them...asking and telling my self...you are probably going to miss this one...I have stopped doing that and replaced it with...this is going in the hole...and it works great...still dont make them all but doing much better.

My putting attitude and confidence has increased A LOT...the words that I say to myself .has helped tremendously. When I used to miss an easy putt or 3 putted a green I used to call myself stupid and dwell on it. Now I forget about it and continue to praise myself as a good putter.

I feel more confident when I say and do the same things on every putt. I can go through the exact same thoughts and actions on each putt and be confident that I will get good results.

I feel like all of this is making a world of difference in my putting and my confidence in being a good putter. I truly believe in myself now and also believe that I am going to get even better.

It is so much more enjoyable standing over a 4 foot putt knowing with all that I believe that the putt is going in the hole...rather than fearing of lipping it out. I am enjoying all of this and looking forward to more work and becoming an even better putter than I am today...thanks

I no longer am haphazardly sloshing my way around the green and through poor putts. I now have a program and stick with it which helps me to repeatedly stoke good puts with confidence and with the expectation of good results.

Its funny how now I watch other people putting all the time and can see a ll the mistakes they are making...it is almost comical what I see now...from their lack of routine...to poor setup to terrible strokes...big back swings and no follow throughs. The mechanical drills help tremendously to set the tempo...length...and smoothness of my putting stroke...but these other people...wow...they need help

I cant begin to thank you enough for the help this has made in my putting...people at the golf course are constantly saying to me...great putt...I used to have a lot of fear of missing short putts...more so than not getting a long one close. That fear is gone and has been replaced with confidence in my stroke and my putts...my whole game has gotten better

I used to stand over 3 footers and even 2 footers and worry myself to death that I would miss them. I also used to 3 putt at least 2 or 3 or 4 times a round. Now I stand over those little puts secure in the knowledge that they are "in the hole" and that is where they usually end up. Its amazing what a good routine and plenty of confidence and a good repeating stoke can do for you. Not only am I confident on short putts but I truly feel I can sink any putt on the green. I have been sinking a lot of mid range putts...10-15 feet...and am consistently putting the long ones close. My ranger buddies at the course where I work...as a ranger...keep asking me how I started putting so good. I told them I work hard at it...lol...its the putting improvement program.

I now believe I can truly sink every putt.

I haven't seen anything like this...basically I would just pick up little things by reading books by Tiger and Harvey Pinnick. I would try them for a while but always resort back to old habits. Basically I had no idea what I was doing...kind of just unhappily plugging along. This program was different in the fact that it went so far into detail...not just one detail either...all the facets of putting. From building confidence by learning to love my putter...to building a routine...to trusting and grooving my stroke...to being psychologically ready...to completely understanding all the facets of putting. Its different because you took the time and effort to do all the research and then import all of that into a COMPLETE putting improvement program...one that I can depend on for the rest of my life. Its almost comical to me now as I watch other people putt and all the mistakes that they make. Working as a Ranger I see a lot of putts and spend a lot of time chuckling down the path...lol...maybe I should quit laughing...as that once was me...and try to help these lost souls.

I cant wait to get to the course. Its a lot more fun playing golf and putting when you know that you are doing it correctly and to the best of your abilities. Its always more fun doing something when you are good at it and believe in yourself. I love to look at the faces of my golfing buddies and the shaking of their heads after sinking a long birdie putt. Its a great feeling to sink a long putt, a short downhill 3 foot breaker, a long downhill double breaker, all of them. I suppose the best thing I could do and the most happiness I would get would be from getting a hole in one...I never have but came within 6 inches the other day. Putting that aside my favorite thing to do in golf is to sink a long...long...putt. I love it!

Since starting the program I have probably ran in about 5 of them...thanks. What I hate more than anything in golf is 3 putting. I would rather hit it out of bounds or chunk one in the lake. I still 3 putt a green now and then...hey Tiger did it 3 times 2 weeks ago and still won...but they are getting fewer and fewer which makes me happier and happier every day."

"The practical side of the instructions is very logical. The improvement has been noticed by my playing buddies.

It teaches a logical sequence that is easy to replicate continuously. This can only improve consistency.

The results are significant. The consistent setup and stroke is making a big difference and my confidence is greatly improved.

I have sunk a lot of difficult (for me) putts. Two to three metre putts were my difficult lengths. I am consistently sinking putts now, where I used to only "get close" before.

Longer putts are consistently closer than before.

My confidence has certainly vastly improved. My attitude has changed, in that I now realise that putting accounts for a very large proportion of the number of strokes taken in a round, and the importance of this aspect of the game has become much more of a feature in my approach to the game.

Putting used to be "ho-hum", insignificant, just something to "finish the hole", not that important. Not so at all! The putting aspect of the game is a whole game in itself, and is a challenging competition in its own right. The disciplined approach can make a great contribution in saving strokes

My confidence is very high. The process has become automatic and I am sinking a lot of putts that I would only have expected to get close before. The recording of the number of putts per round is not always a good indication of putting ability because I have found recently that I seem to get more long putts than usual. My handicap has come down from 20 in August to 17.9 today. A lot of this is due to improved putting.

This program has made me very much more aware of the importance of putting, and has removed the "hit and hope" aspect of putting. It has given me the confidence to putt, knowing that I have a good chance of sinking putts that I used to be happy to "get close".

I am most grateful to you for your tremendous assistance to my game."

"I hit a higher percentage of putts solidly and rarely three-putt. A lot more putts have a chance to go in. My putting attitude and confidence has been better due to better contact, hence better distance control and fewer three-putts. I also am able to putt more confidently throughout the round and I am not as influenced by what happens on the first few holes.

I do not think much about putting mechanics now. I'm happy with the stroke itself. I still sometimes move or come out of the stroke early on-course. I have had a lot of success overcoming this (and related head movement) by focusing on keeping my lower body from the waist down completely still. I am able to do this much more consistently this way rather than thinking about not moving my head. The result is both lower body and head are steady.

The most important improvement is in attitude. I just feel that I will make more putts. Undoubtedly this is a result of improved mechanics, the drills etc. but that is not how I now think about it when I play. This is in marked contrast to the program during the second month when I felt I was taking too much of the mechanics of the program to the course with unsatisfactory scoring results.

Biggest benefit: I'm much more positive about approaching the challenge of putting on every green. I have moved from putting "defensively" to feeling neutral and on really good days "offensive." I hope to have the "offensive" putting days become the norm, so that putting is a scoring weapon most of the time rather than something that detracts from good ball-striking.

Feeling good about putting -- relishing the opportunity once the ball is on the green."
