Exercises to Make Putting Practice Less Painful

Step 1
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding your putter parallel to the ground behind your back.

Step 2
Slowly bend forward hinging from the hips, dropping the club to your ankles. Hold position for 10 to 15 seconds.

Step 3
Slowly come back up to starting position by rolling your spine up one vertebra at a time. Your head should be the last part of your body to come up. Repeat exercise two to three times.
