Putting Challenge

[Jon Brakel]

Here's the deal.
1) Watch the video
2) Do the Putting on a regular basis (one or two 15 minute reps, at least 3 times per week)
3) Every day that you do at least one 15 minute rep of the putting exercise, post on this thread "I did my putting today." and then your name (so I don't have to look up user names)
4) Come to IOS #6 at Fairfield on October 18th and 19th and compete for free in the Putting Challenge Contest. There will be prizes.
5) We'll have one competition each day so you don't have to come both days if you don't want to, but if you want to you are welcome to compete both days. Yes, that does mean you might be competing with a pro, but this is just for fun, so relax!
6) Only those that post regularly are eligible to compete at Fairfield. If you miss a few days here and there for vacation or whatever, no problem, but you need to be posting during these next two months if you want to compete in the putting contest at Fairfield in October.

I did my putting today. Lawrence Leonardi #36370

I found it curiously interesting that he suggested dumping your current putters before started because they serve as a reminder of putts you have missed.  I think I'll do that because the stupid putter cost me three strokes at the end of Aurora.  I was doing great (for me), and the last 2 holes I two-putted and then three-putted.  Two easy birdies turned into par and bogey.

I'll post later when I get my putt on

I'm in, been wanting to push myself into this putting practice cycle but just slacked it off. Group support & a challange at the end should be just enough added incentive to get me at the basket daily.  I know for a fact that I can shave 2-4 throws a round with improved putting.  That will be the difference from cashing & not cashing when I make the jump to advanced in the spring (hopefully that is I'll finish out the fall in Int after IOS #5)

If you're following system that Mark Ellis talks about in the video then you can't have a "bad" practice. If you can only make 5 footers consistently, then practice from there. If you can make 10 footers, then practice from there. The point is to practice from where you can make ALL of your putts. This way you are practicing MAKING putts rather than practice missing putts.
