Episode Details

495: We can all sympathize with Dustin Johnson after he 3putted to lose this year’s US Open on the final hole. So does that mean putting is more important to low scores and winning then driving the ball 300 yards? It’s a great debate, but there’s no argument that better putters shoot lower scores. This week our guest is Juan Gutierrez who’s injury forced him to stay away from full swings for months, so he concentrated on putting. And he got so good that he won the 2011 World Golf Hall of Fame Putting Championship. He’s just released a book called “Make More Putts: A Proven Putting Performance Improvement System” that includes 150 simple putting drills that will impact every golfer’s game. So if you’re not putting to your potential, start with this episode, then get the book on Amazon!
