Re: Putting - Distance Control
Yeah best advice is to know the greens and how fast or slow they are, Thats what throws me when going to a different course besides my home course.. So just try and get on a putting green before the round, And definitely give the ladder drill a go

Seriously! I've never used a club that made me feel this confident when it was in my hands.

I guess it helps when you really believe in the club too.

Re: Putting - Distance Control
You could try making a practice stroke until it seems the right speed, then hit the actual stroke at exactly the same speed. This means being able to duplicate a practice stroke. You have to trust your final judgement and stick with it. The advantage here is that you don't have to calculate the stroke length and acceleration during the stroke.

I have found that when I am tired, my brain does a poorer job of calculating the proper putter speed.

Re: Putting - Distance Control
What I do: one look at the hole for my line, and then 2 looks at the hole for distance, first to figure speed/break matrix and second for distance only.
