How Can I Stop Lifting My Head While Putting?

Question: How Can I Stop Lifting My Head While Putting?
Answer: Gary's Quick Tips:

The main reason golfers lift their heads is because they focus too much on results rather than keeping their eye on the ball (when they are standing over a putt).

To keep your head down, the key is to listen for the ball to enter the hole, rather than looking for it to do so.
