What he sees
How to practice it
When the “spot putter” reads his putt, he identifies a spot (a spike mark, discoloration of the green or old ball mark) and hits his ball toward it. Spot putters tend to be nonvisual in nature and use the spot to determine how far and in what direction they should putt the ball.
You are aiming at a spot just beyond the hole. That not only gives you an aiming point, but, because it’s beyond the hole, also gives you pretty decent speed. After all, You are not want to leave any putt short.) The better you visual image of the spot as you stroke the putt, the better your speed will be. Place three tees at three different distances from you. (It may be hard to see in the picture at right, but you’ve placed them 10, 20 and 30 feet away.) Aim each putt toward a tee. Then, as you make your stroke, picture the corresponding tee in your mind’s eye. With enough practice, you should “see” the tee (and, hence, remember where and how far away it is) when you look at the ball. This will help you retain your target, and gauge the correct distance, too.
