279: Andy Gorman - Putting Better is Easy

February 23
1h 27m

Episode Description

Andy Gorman is ThePASS (The Putting And Shortgame Specialist). And this episode is truly all about putting.

If you wonder why you don't putt better, whether you have the right putter for you, why you don't putt well under pressure, why you under-read so many putts, and then exactly how to address all of these things... then you're going to love this episode.

Andy is both extremely knowledgable about the ins and outs of every detail of the putting stroke, but he's also able to consolidate that info into very simple practices, fundamentals, and feelings that will instantly help you putt better. I've already been trying some of the things he told me about and I feel much more comfortable and confident over putts. Pretty cool stuff.

Here's a sample of the many topics we cover on this episode:

  • How life pressure is tied to golf pressure
  • The dangers of comparison to other players or the leaderboard
  • The one fundamental key to improving putting
  • What to think standing over a putt
  • Should you change your putting technique?
  • Is it better to be correct or consistent?
  • Why was (is? 👀) Tiger so good at putting?
  • How to stop under-reading greens
  • The biomechanics of the putting stroke
  • The 10-10 Drill to calibrate green speed and stroke length
  • The psychology of putting pressure
  • Putting yips
