What Is The Yardstick Drill?

A well-hit putt will remain on its line. Practice hitting short and straight putts on a yardstick for instant feedback on whether or not the putt stays on line. This is a great drill that provides instance feedback.

Who Should Do It?

If you struggle to hit straight putts.

How Do You Do It?

  • Place a yardstick near the edge of the hole and place a golf ball on top of the yardstick. 
  • Hit putts rolling the ball down the yardstick into the hole.
  • If your ball rolls off the right side of the yardstick, your putter has an open face or your path is in to out.
  • If your ball rolls off the left side of the yardstick, your putter has a closed face or your path is out to in.
  • Pay attention to ball position as having the ball too far back in your stance will cause a push and the ball to roll of the right side of the ruler.
