| Ask The Golf Pro, Volume 3: Putting Tips and Hot Chicks on the LPGA Tour Q: While my ability to strike the ball has slowly improved over the years, my ability to putt seems to be going the other direction. I'm beginning to think that some people just aren't born with the 'putting gene,' and that I'm one of them. Why can't I ever seem to get any better at putting and could you offer me some advice or tips on how I can become a better putter? -Levi R. Cotton Springs, MS WTS, Golf Pro: Thanks for the question, Levi. You are not alone in your frustration with the flatstick. One of the most common problems amateur golfers face is an inability to putt with any consistency. I'll tell you the same thing I tell every one of my students...it's all speed and direction. Sounds simple enough, huh? There are any number of paths the ball could take to end up in the bottom of the cup...it's just a matter of choosing one and executing. And that is where the most important tip comes in...get off your ass and practice! You could read every book in the world about proper putting technique and how to read greens, but until you put that knowledge into practice on the putting green, it ain't worth a dime. Once a week for 5 minutes before you tee off is not going to cut it...developing touch and feel with the putter takes time and lots of work. There are no shortcuts, no magic pills you can take, no easy way around it...practice is the only thing that's going to get you to where you want to be...a wizard with the putter. And remember, putting is simple. It's just speed and direction...and a boatload of practice to master those two factors. Next thing you know, you'll be doing more of this--> And less of this--> ===================================================================================================== Q: While flipping through the channels last weekend, I made a startling discovery when I landed on an LPGA event: some of these professional golfer chicks are pretty hot! When did this happen? I always remember these lady golf pros being rather homely and un-boner-worthy? What else have I been missing? -Randy P. Havawank, KY WTS, Golf Pro: Hey Randy, you are correct about the 'boner' index of the LPGA Tour being on the rise (pun intended.) And you are spot on about the LPGA of old being populated by troves of mountain trolls and lezzified lady-dudes. Let's take a look at what we are talking about with a quick comparison: Here's a couple of LPGA stars from the 80s... Fisting her way to victory! Is that Bill Clinton? or John Kerry? Goodbye boner! Compared to a couple of the up and coming stars of today's LPGA Tour... Stretch it out, honey! Is that regulation golf attire? Helloooo Boner! I think the pictures speak for themselves, Randy. Have a spank-tastic day! ===================================================================================================== Unfortunately, that's all the time we have for questions today.
