There are a number of putting drills that you can practice to try and help I like the placing 2 tees just outside the putter width down and hitting puts. That will work on bringing the putter to the impact zone square. Might help pushing or pulling and getting the ball started on the correct line. Something I ususlly do as well is place a ball 1,3,6 then a long put and work or trying to get the feel down for those lenghts. Those are 2 drills that have helped me over the years, and you can practice those for a few minutes before every round.

My dad, brother and I went out for a round. It was great, my brother got his first hole in 1. Great moment to share with him.

2010, Par 3 Hole 7 150y. Hit a PW with a little draw and slam dunked it. Out for a casual round with my dad and brother. To top it off, it was one of the first times I was able to shoot under par, so the score card looked good all around.

I am from the East Coast in Canada and just wanted to take a second and give a quick "What's up" to everyone.

I turned 33 this year, and I hit about 20 yards further and use a club less this year compared to 2 years ago. My fitness and flexability level have increased since then and I figure that has helped more then age will hurt.

Well, I can tell you from my own experience, as I play about the same amount as you do. I played a number of years as a junior and learned there, but when I returned to the game a number of years later I had never received any further help from a pro in the form of a lesson. Now keep in mind I was able to build a foundation as a jr. I have shaved a number of strokes off my cap over the last couple of years but I have reached as far as I can go on my own. I hover around a 2 or 3 but there is a big gap to a 0 from there, and that requirs work and practice time. My advise is get a lesson or two and get a base in fundamentals, once you get a base you can work on that on your own by practicing. If you don't practice or get a lesson chances are slim to make it to scratch.
