If you find that you get overly technical with your putting try spending some time just putting to an area or zone, rather than to a hole. This will help free up your putting and encourage you to make a more relaxed, rhythmic stroke.

Great suggestion! For putts of any length I think of my target as being a 3 foot circle…then have confidence I can hole the +/- 3 footer. Sure takes pressure off!
“Putting to an area” makes a lot of sense. From my perspective it is another way of saying, “Don’t clutter the mind with a lot of thoughts” especially mechanical. In other words, read, decide, practice stroke or not, address, commit, relax and stroke. Sounds complicated, but it is not. It is a step-by-step routine.
