One of the most common faults in putting is over-acceleration, and it’s probably sneaking into your stroke without you even realising.
Here’s how it happens:
👉 Your backswing is too slow… or too short.
👉 That means you don’t build up enough energy on the way back.
👉 So when it’s time to strike the ball, you make up for it by speeding up too much in the downswing.
The result? A quick, jerky stroke that’s impossible to control and putts that finish nowhere near the distance you intended.
And here’s the kicker:
Over-acceleration usually feels “normal” in the moment. But in reality, your rhythm is out of sync. Instead of the Tour-proven 2:1 ratio (backswing twice as long as downswing), you’ve likely slipped closer to 3:1 and that’s where speed control falls apart.

Do the alignment lines on your putter enhance your accuracy, or could they be hindering your performance?
Most golfers use the lines on their putters to aim the face precisely along their chosen start line. This is especially common if you also use a line on your golf ball to assist with aiming. But have you ever considered whether these lines are actually benefiting you?
ou step up, address the ball with your putter, and make a smooth stroke, only to watch the ball veer off line like it had a mind of its own. You swear you aimed it right. But did you? For most golfers, the issue isn’t the stroke. It’s misalignment, starting the ball in the wrong direction from the very beginning.
Do you ever stand over a putt and second guess your read, only to watch the ball miss wide, breaking too much or not enough? You’re not alone. And there’s a chance, the problem isn’t your stroke, it’s the read.
Putting is often lost before the ball even moves. distance, slope (angle & gradient), grain and other factors can all influence how the ball rolls. If you misread those pieces of information, even a good stroke can send the putt off line.
