You’ve heard it before: Drive for show, putt for dough.
Big drives turn heads—but it’s the putt that wins holes.
The catch? Putting is the toughest part of golf. So how do you actually get better at it? Here are a few no-nonsense tips to help you roll it cleaner and score lower.
Not all putters are created equal—and if yours isn’t built for your stroke, you're already fighting an uphill battle.
Paradox putters are different. With patented Swing Balanced Technology, mass is strategically placed high in the toe and low in the heel to align with the principal axis of your stroke.
Translation? It naturally stays square through impact. That means better speed control, straighter rolls, and fewer frustrating misses.
Before you even line up, walk the green. Use your feet to gauge slope and firmness—your senses pick up more than your eyes. Even subtle breaks can send your ball off line.
A consistent stance leads to consistent results. Set your feet shoulder-width apart and square to the target line every time.
Keep your wrists and hands quiet. Instead, use your shoulders, lats, and core to control the stroke. This keeps the face stable and your pace smooth.
The face must be square at impact. If it’s open or closed—even slightly—you’re off target.
Tilt slightly forward, let your arms hang naturally, and let the putter swing like a pendulum.
The Bottom Line:
Putting well isn’t about perfection—it’s about repeatability. Start with gear that’s built to help, refine your fundamentals, and practice with purpose. Your scorecard will thank you.
