- Get a 2x2 piece of wood.
- Place the piece of wood 10 feet away from you on the putting green, just to the side and about 2 feet past a hole.
- Grab ten golf balls and putt them, going through your regular routine, toward that piece of wood.
- As you putt, you want to be tension-free and not look up. You will be listening for the ball to hit the 2x2. You want that sound of the ball hitting the wood to be softer and not a hard knock. Record how many out of ten hit the 2x2 with the correct sound.
