Learn How To Use A Long Putter

There are many different reasons for poor putting, but one of the most common amongst golfers is having too much wrist action in their golf putting stroke.

Having too much wrist action in your putting stroke leads to a loss of putter head control and consequently inconsistent ball striking

Finding a solution to this problem is not always easy, some golfers like to experiment with different ways of gripping the putter and some prefer to see if moving to a longer putter will work.
