Jordan Spieth Putting Practice: How to Putt Like The World's Greatest

[@tedgtou]

I used to 3 putts. My friends even nicknamed me "3 putts Ted". After seeing this video, I went out and bought a 15' * 18' putting mat for $150. I did 200 putts per day for 5 days. I no longer have the nickname "3 putts Ted". Thank you Pete, you have helped my game a lot. Not just putting but all around game because of you video.

[@AyoPro]

i was lucky enough to meet Jackie Burke Jr. the oldest living masters champion and Ben Hogans best buddy. He told me a story about how Phil Mickelson called him at his club he runs in Houston and asked if he could fly over there to get a putting lesson from Mr. Burke. who is one hell of a putter. Mr. Burke told him dont waste my time. he said do that clock drill from 3 feet away and dont stop until you make 100 out of 100. if you mess up up you have to start back at 1. once you can do it give me a call back and we can set up our meeting. Mr. Burke told me it took Phil 3 days before he heard from him. When he called Mr. Burke told him to save his money on his flight and not to bother coming as that was the lesson all along. he said keep working on the short putts and it will make your long putts easier. On longer putts try to get the ball into that imaginary 3 foot circle. if you practiced enough from 3 feet you should have no worries. Phil laughed at Mr. Burke on the phone and they said there goodbyes. later that year Phil won the masters and Mr Burke sent him a congratulations card with one simple message inside the card. it said "Your Welcome".

[@dmurfet795]

+Michael Ruppel Great story

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Michael Ruppel I'm calling Phil and Jackie now

[@AyoPro]

+Peter Finch Golf haha go for it. I'm sure you'll get ahold of Jackie. Phil would be a stretch lol

[@altonlabrecque7832]

+Michael Ruppel I have been told the same thing almost I will go back to it

[@atlurbanist1145]

I hope to god it said "You're Welcome," not "Your Welcome"

[@Michael-sz8in]

What makes Speith's stats even more outstanding is that not only did he do it in a competitive tournament on the PGA Tour, he did it all over the world in many different countries, many different climates on many different styles of course. It didn't matter whether he is putting at Augusta, St Andrews or Chambers Bay... Great video Pete! Definitely going to try this out one day.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Michael Anderson yes it's quite incredible really and good to hear

[@paulizzyrollins]

This is brilliant. I always tend to neglect my putting practice. This has given me some motivation to go and practice.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Paul Rollins good to hear Paul

[@HLPproductions]

Probably my favourite ever golf video. Thank you. To me this really illustrates the differences between a Tour Pro and an amateur as the concentration levels and ability to be this mentally strong for that long are not really something that just happens by chance it is something that has to be worked on in the same way as a golf swing. I have always said there are 2 parts to a great golfer the swing and mental capability and I genuinely think you can teach most people to have a repetitive decent swing but very few people will have the mental ability to excel as a tour pro. The fact that Spieth goes through something like this has no doubt helped his mental toughness and gave him the edge over Rory et-al especially in those crunch moments

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Darren Hardy cheers Darren, remember that mental toughness and concentration is not something tour pro's are born with, just like they are not born with a great putting stroke. Both need to be PRACTICED. If people want to become mentally stronger then they can

[@paulahulme]

That's brutal. For Speith's tour stats I would suggest there was also more break on the putts than a practice green.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Paul Hulme I would say so, purer surfaces though

[@kevnizbf3]

It’s apples to oranges. Considering tour stats are based on in tournament stats not practice or assessment type scenarios. Things Pete didn’t have to worry about; different greens, on different courses, in all conditions, without a confirmed read on the break, tournament pressure, different speeds, morning, afternoon, grain..... etc. Makes Spieth’s and other great putters that much more impressive. That being said, good work Pete and impressive performance also. Like you identified it’s a bit silly to try out of the blue for us mortals, endurance and concentration are tested more than actual putting skills.

[@steve8910]

Yes Pete, more pain and suffering videos :) This was very interesting and put some thoughts into my head. Going to spend two hours on the putting green instead of on the driving range this week and see how the putting feels on the weekend.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Justin M good man, putt well

[@steve8910]

***** For the first time in a couple of months I felt confident over the ball while putting, I had a couple lip out and some end up just a hair short or to the left/right but I have to say when you know you're putting well the rest of your game falls into place. Thanks again for the tips Pete!

[@leeadby4854]

Just seen this Pete, I will try half the amount 50 at a time, I go to the range 3 times a week for driver and irons practice, I will include a session of 50 putts each time. Great video again!!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Lee Adby cheers Lee and goo luck

[@cbwagner7269]

Great video. New to your channel but of those I have seen, this is my favorite. With that said, I'm a stats and numbers guy! Regardless, this is what separates the pros from the rest of us. The dedication to do this day in and day out.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+CB Wagner cheers buddy

[@Jates92]

awesome video Pete. one thing I've never really spent any time practicing is putting and I need drills like this that will keep me interested.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+JizBear07 get on that green!

[@pendodave4661]

thought provoking. It certainly seems on the Woburn vlogs from you and Rick that the pros' putting is just plain better. Good to see that you're tailoring your practice to bridge the gap.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+pendo dave yep it was a big difference which needs to be addressed

[@Rich206L]

Peter, great video. Yes, practice putting puts a lot of strain on my lower back and as such, I can't putt as much in practice as I would like. I can hit balls far longer that I can putt, for sure. Again, great stuff! Cheers, Rich

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Rich206L cheers Rich

[@bobbycech]

Great video! Definitely going to give this a go! Would love to see you do a video of you working out your yardage for each club!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Ross Wilson that will be coming soon :)

[@killacamfoo]

I think its a great idea over the course of a month for most people. Focus on 100 at a time in 10 x 10 sets from various distances. Luckily I have a 12 x 2 ft putting "strip" that I can use year round, so I can do 100 a day after I'm home from work. I think I'll use this technique on anything inside 15 ft this winter and come spring, I hope the results pay off. Great video!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Killacamfoo O.G. thank you :)

[@qudjy1]

I would bet a tour pro's stats in a practice situation are very good, higher than in competition. In practice, they know the read after a couple putts. In competition, there is always a slight bit of doubt in the read / speed / etc. Good vid. Enjoyed it. If anything, it gives you an idea of the dedication required.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+qudjy1 indeed :)

[@dmurfet795]

Most intelligent video so far Pete. I do similar when completeing the Pelz putting test - I'm doing one today and if combined with the short game can mean 5 1/2 hours on the green which can make your back sore. The benefit from this intensity of practice will be mostly mental you will feel so much better over those 6 ft putts. You might want to include othe types of putts in your session eg large breaking putts and long lag putts which would increase the variety and improve your touch at the same time.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Chumley Warner indeed, I'll keep refining the test going forward

[@DarkHorse70]

+Peter Finch Golf any update on this Pete? My short game practice has been extremely curtailed by sodden greens which get bumpy after just a few putts round the hole and its not much fun putting in the wind and rain either!

[@DarkHorse70]

Can you still manage this with your bad hand Pete? - more benefit doing this than one handed chipping! Good luck getting prepared for Fairhaven

[@drunknmonk12]

This is a great video Pete, definitely inspiring me to give it a try down here in Australia when I get the chance.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+drunknmonk12 good to hear bud

[@danield5425]

I might cut this down to 25% and do it multiple times a week, I think even with mediocre ball striking this would drop 7-10 shots a round. Awesome job grinding it out Pete.

[@corysutton6847]

Excellent hard work, Mr. Finch. Would love to see a variation on the clock drill and ladder drill... combined in fact!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Cory Sutton a ladder clock indeed

[@3rdgroove]

Great experiment. Yes, please continue to do such things so WE don't have to test them ;-) When I do those "around the world" putting drills I use less balls, less distances and do it for 20-45 min max. From then on it's no fun: the back hurts and the brain switches off. But until then you definitely learn a lot about your putting stroke and it clearly helps.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+3rdgroove push through that boredom barrier, glory awaits

[@olivercleeve-bright7303]

Great video Pete, I would love to try this !!!!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Oliver Cleeve-bright get on that green!

[@Melted_Butter]

enjoyed the video. it's edited very very well given the topic. well done.

[@davidnagiev8625]

Great work and an amazing video! Should try to practice like this

[@VoodooZ]

Great experiment Pete. I hope you'll be able to have comparison graphs for the next iteration.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Stephane Gauthier yep should do

[@xXTWillisXx]

Ahhh I feel like my back would be broken after putting a thousand balls! Keep up the good work finchy!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Tyler Willis will do Tyler :)

[@kentdolby]

Love to see you getting into the data, Pete. Let me know if I can be of any assistance with analysis, visualization, etc.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Kent Dolby indeed I will :)

[@nathanutz4418]

Great video, very interesting. Going to practice a few more putts!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Nathan Utz haha good man

[@andrewsmythe8252]

great video pete! also been loving the on course series !

[@fullwerkes]

Pete, I really really like this video man. Quest for the open is making yours and Rick's content so good and not the same old muppet show repackaged every time on some other channels. I am definitely going to be doing a similar routine as my putting is....shocking to say the least. I will keep the stats too and share :)

[@peterfinchgolf]

+fullwerkes good man and thank you very much :)

[@unoyoudidnt]

The dedication is real hahaha holy crap 1000 putts way to go finchie!!

[@mpc77769]

Nice video Pete! I'm not saying to put yourself through that again, but a well done job. And to me at least, your results are much better than your giving yourself credit for.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+mpc77769 I need the pain!

[@parkerbohnn]

I used to compete in the Professional Putters Association back in the days of Jeff Estep. I used to putt ricochet shots with 3 golf balls on a 6 X 12 foot snooker table standing on it. That's how I practiced.

[@jungfraujoch11333]

I’ve read Ian Woosnam practiced short puts on his full size snooker table before his Masters win

[@dheslop1]

Fascinating video, thanks Pete. Shows how much they are willing to go through to be the best. I suppose I'd happily swap a few hours in the office to practice putting mind!! Definitely a "simple" way to lower your scores, certainly effective and something that's easier to practice over the winter?

[@peterfinchgolf]

+David Heslop indeed! Spieth can play average and still post a great score because of the work he puts in at this end of his game

[@dheslop1]

Very true Peter! Is this something you will continue (albeit a "cut-down" version) in your quest for the open? Just also watched today's video on your drawing & fading drill and it looks great! Looking forward to giving that one a try!. Thanks for sharing.

[@johntatum1951]

So Jordan works hard at putting...like Lee Trevino and Vijay Singh worked on their swings. Thanks for sharing!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+John Tatum no worries

[@johntatum1951]

No worries mate! Keep the tips coming...

[@glpincus]

this is a great video. and idea. Myself like so many others is.. my puttings never really that great. usually 33 putts a round. Ill definitely try this out at 500. and see if my putting dials in more the more I do it. great video. keep up the awesome work.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+glpincus thanks buddy :)

[@5wisher5weet]

amazing difference in numbers, really looking forward to the next 2 bunches of 500.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Jacob Streiff me too, kind of :)

[@MatthewCoatesGolf]

great video enjoyed and like these kinds of videosI think you learn the most when your fatigued and tired, albeit you are never going to be in that state in a round because you don't hit that many putts. but just think your in the last round had 71 grueling holes its hot and your tired and you need to make a crucial putt, that's where I think this type of training helps.....most people can hole a few 3 ft putts etc but holing the same putt under pressure when you tired and drained is another story

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Matthew Coates cheers Matthew

[@jakebella5683]

Thank you for a great video. Yes, trying to catch up with All of your videos.

[@CAF1productions]

Awesome video , definitely opened my mind up to my own practice regiment ,Thanks

[@ianowen3992]

Fantastic video The 100 puts at each distance is training you when you are physically and psychologically stressed Like you said puts 60-90 were when your miss number went up due to lack of concentration This drill will make you more psychologically robust

[@peterfinchgolf]

Thats the idea :)

[@SpartanKramer33]

I feel your long shots should also all be from different places. If you take them all from different locations it would probably feel like a new putt. In a match you'll only get one chance at each 30' foot putt. I'm excited to watch the 2017 Quest for the open. I just started golfing last year and other than one lucky 81 I am not very good. Looking forward to more great tips and drills! Best wishes brother! :)

[@MoodSwingsGolfUK]

Awesome video Pete. Gruelling! I think I need to do something similar, for the putting confidence.... So much time though...

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Mood Swings Golf lots of time indeed, it will help though

[@MoodSwingsGolfUK]

+Peter Finch Golf No doubt. I will do an attempt video on my channel too. Daunting prospect though.....

[@PkGam]

Gotta' give you props for sticking to the full 1,000! I too think I would have gotten rather numb after that many. I also think that too many at once likely isn't beneficial. Heck, it may even be detrimental if you lose confidence from missed putts due to loss of concentration. I think it's like with anything skill-based: You gotta find what works for you. Jordan for instance, assuming he really does that many putts, likely found that worked for him in doing that many putts. Maybe for consistency, maybe for concentration, maybe both. Who knows. But there are a lot of other good putters out there and they surely don't all do the same things as Jordan does in their practice routines.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+PkGam yes true it might just be Jordan who does this, but he's currently the best there is, examples must be followed

[@chetlovesmer9549]

Peter, Thanks for doing this. It was really interesting. I believe Jordan may actually do 1000 putts per session. Like you, I don't have that kind of time each day. But I think I'll give it a go at least once just to see how I stand up.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Chet LovesMer It's certainly an eye opener

[@Duby27]

Well done. Keep up the good work and great vids.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Chris Dubensky cheers Chris

[@alkalineperformance6421]

Thanks so much for this mad scientist approach!!!

[@peterfinchgolf]

Haha

[@cudney85]

Great video! looking forward to try this. I'm terrible at putting and have been looking for a video that would help the most. I'll give you feedback of how I've done thanks!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+matt cudney good to here, get our there and practice!

[@cudney85]

+Peter Finch Golf so ive been doing this but only roughly 250 putts on three different putting greens. i dont really get the time to do 1000 putts. ive done this for the past week playing 3, 18hole rounds. not only did i gain confidence putting but my miss are closer and im shaving strokes off my game. Thanks for the video!!

[@Manhead1983]

This video is so golf nerdy, i love it haha.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+SP Atkins haha cheers

[@jakegraham1065]

Looks great Pete, may try this in a shorter format! Cheers

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Jake Graham good stuff :)

[@golfninja6492]

Great video, putting stance for that long ... respect.... Now all you've just got to do is similar from 100 yards in, chips, bunkers, from the rough ... plus full iron shots .... not forgetting the long game .... tough this Quest for the open milarky!!!!....... ;)

[@peterfinchgolf]

+golfninja you're not wrong!

[@JMLEE96TV]

Great work. Do you have a link to the Jordan Spieth interview/article you mentioned at the beginning of the video?

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Ji-Min Lee it was on the TV and I've not found it yet online

[@jeromejohnson5686]

Dedication. Awesome!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Jerome Johnson cheers bud

[@priayief]

Well done! Quite helpful too. Thanks

[@jean-lucdumas8607]

I'm very intersted to see your training or your method routine, and if you could give advise on this topic. I'm aslo looking for a technique to manage the speed of the ball, so many time I could finish alternativly too long or too short: a nightmare !!! Great video, great swing, please continue !!!!

[@jasons5726]

How do you think this will effect your putting when you play faster/slower greens? I would worry about creating muscle memory for that green's speed, and then having a disastrous time adjusting when playing different green speeds. Are you working more on alignment and technique, or are you focusing solely on making putts (looks like you're only focused on putts made -- which I guess requires alignment and technique practice -- so maybe it's a redundant question)? Great video! Thanks for all the great stuff you keep putting out for us to enjoy!!

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Jason Semmler this is all about just making as many putts as possible, stuff like alignment and stroke technique will form part of other practice sessions though

[@Lucas-bn5rv]

Did anyone else see a ball in the grass during the intro bit

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Lucas Featherbe balls everywhere

[@georgiosantonopoulos7893]

Winner of a video, I've been looking for "golf videos" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Graysonyon Putter Prolific - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my brother in law got amazing results with it.

[@johndavies4498]

Yea its probably mine

[@TW-be8hh]

Great video! Did you measure the putts exactly or estimate the distance?

[@francescobruni7697]

Wonderful video!!

[@BattlemastersSoE]

Great video, Peter.

[@peterfinchgolf]

thank you

[@bradcampbell7154]

great video. hafta work on time management to squeeze that in

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Brad Campbell dam straight

[@bjarnieinarsson3472]

We have a saying.. "it always goes in, second time", that is, when miss a put and we try again, we nail it. Tour statistic of putts is always the first one. When you practice 10 exactly same putts from exact same pos, your stat will show higher percentage.. much much more.

[@niallstark7726]

Great effort

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Niall Stark cheers Niall

[@nateryan5387]

You are an extremely good putter, friend!

[@evangraves2638]

love this video definitely gonna try this! but can you do this same drill but with chipping?

[@bm4995]

lucky you to have practice green that very smooth and dont have many people there. This challenge motivate me to do the same... but not like you did. Maybe 1/5 of your challenge... LOL. Great video.... I always enjoy watching your video.

[@peterfinchgolf]

cheers Budi

[@jamessheridan7501]

What is the name and make of your Putter?- I have seen you use it in other videos.. and you seem to do very well with it!

[@Lancer78x]

First off thanks for sharing this and putting in the hard work. Just curious as you never said, how long did it take you to actually hit all 1000 over the 2 days? Thanks again.

[@nigelday001]

Awesome Pete and thank you for doing this , BUT that many putts is counterproductive. I agree batches of 50 spread over a few days would be more beneficial 😉⛳️🍻

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Nigel Day nope, more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more more putts is always better

[@nigelday001]

See Pete , you've gone MAD . thats all those Putt's ..

[@DiegoRaulGalmarini]

It was very useful, many thanks for the video. I have 7 hdp, and my big problem it's the putter, I do 28 or 32 putts in 18 holes... I will try practice 50 putts between 3 and 10 fts. and try to share my stats. Thanks again.

[@iainwelsh7402]

Going to give a shortened version a go. Hope nobody else want to use the practice green today

[@xThatAsianGuy]

I think that I putt well already but I want to do this at least 10 times and average it out, I play off 5 and I think by doing this I can get myself down to 3/4 quickly because I hope I'll hold more birdie putts, what do you think Pete?

[@peterfinchgolf]

+xThatAsianGuy I've never met anyone in my life that couldn't drop handicap by becoming a better putter through intense practice

[@jkraft2652]

what song is playing in background....nice to give credits when using tracks...thnx

[@leighd5017]

Mentally gruelling work-out for a positive putting gain. In choosing a new putter would something like this routine be beneficial to see if you and the putter are properly suited? Is there a better way (less punishing) that one could usein order to select a putter, and does the putting motion and grip selection (normal,claw,reverse) have a more serious bearing on the selection process?

[@neve0507]

Gonna watch this again after ten three putts and a four putt yesterday killing my game still scored 32 stableford off 18 handicap, would of been a storming round if not for putting.

[@Dreama40]

Hi Peter, I am fairly new to golf and noticed at my club recently an old timer using the side saddle putting method. He putts so well i think he could give Jordan Spieth a run for his money! He does not anchor or straddle the putting line but i did notice that his putter shaft is quite vertical at address and through the stroke, i am wondering if this method is legal even though his putter does have the required 10 degrees angle between putter head and shaft. Any chance you could do a segment on this method and perhaps clear up the rules regarding this method of face on putting which i'm surprised more people are not going to. I'm considering the method but i want to be 100% certain i'm not breaking the rules because i'm sure people will challenge my method and knowing the rules etc will be key. Thanks in advance if you get time to do a video regarding this, i'll settle for your expert opinion though at the very least :) Apparently Dave Pelz is a big fan of this method. Really enjoy your videos Peter, and next time your in Australia (Brisbane) we should have a hit :)Oh and i just heard Bryson Dechambo is going to use this method when he gets his tour card!!! So maybe it will catch on, he has said he believes it's the best method mathematically out there! Anyways i cant think of anyone better for getting the low down on this method than yourself and explaining it to us hackers, cheers Jeff....

[@vondejensen]

Hey Pete, been watching your vidoes for a while now... GREAT stuff! And this one is excellent putting motivation - which many of us really need ;) Do you know of any database/site where you can find putting statistics for different hcp groups? Like avg procentages for hcp 0, 5, 10, 15, etc, at the difference distances? Another thing, what do you think Speiths procentages are when actually doing this routine? For me, there is a huge difference between doing 100 puts on the same green, to the same hole and in a row, and then putting when actually playing the course. I mean, the procentages would take a huge jump I think.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Kasper Jensen I'm not sure about the percentage stats for handicap, I know Dave Pelz did something similar but I'd have to research that a bit.

[@aussieexpat]

Cool! I'm going to do 2 hours before my rounds this weekend.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+TryHardGamers good stuff!

[@iansimcox]

Great stuff. Not sure I can afford that amount of time, but 50 putts from 3, 6 and 10 ft just to see what my holing numbers are would be a good practice session.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Ian Simcox I agree :)

[@wutpo76]

Yeah I don't think I would be able to handle that many putts, especially to start off. However, this is something that everyone should try to get into. Nothing will have as big an impact on dropping your scores like putting. Good ideas Pete.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+wutpo76 cheers bud

[@mohamedmaldi8516]

Good exercise

[@kennethrisk4818]

I've tried putting for an hour on round the clock drills and stop when I lose concentration . Some days I last longer than others. I'm not sure if it makes me a better putter in my comps as there's only one put or two on 18 greens. So I put myself under pressure to only put 36 times in practice sessions and try to better my personal best each time. Is that something you would try yourself Pete?

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Kenneth Risk not a bad idea at all

[@MontyDodge]

Here's an idea, if you don't mind me saying, try this get yourself a bucket of balls hit your first shot with a driver then next with an iron or wedge then go to the putting green hit 2 or three puts at different distances then return back to the range with your bucket of balls and repeat that cycle 18 times over but re hit any bad shots or putts until you get that shot or putt right. do that twice a week. I think this would be more practical instead of repeating the same thing over and over again. Yeah, thing I'll be doing this next spring.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Jon Don not sure that's too practical Jon, not many ranges and putting greens next to each other, understand where you are coming from though

[@cricketer333]

can we get a link to be able to watch the interview

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Lachlan Morley it was on the TV, golf channel I think but it could have been something else

[@Dtyler171]

Best putter in the world may be a little bit of a stretch. He's the best on tour, but putting is something other people can do just as well. To be fair, I only actually know one person who can putt as well as him, but I know plenty who are better than many guys who are on tour. Sidenote: I love that grinding feeling. Played 4 rounds today (first time doing more than 54 holes)

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Dtyler171 he's certainly the best putter I've seen on tour anyway, there will always be someone better somewhere

[@cobra7282]

Is this a daily routine for Spieth or does he do this like every other day or what? I suppose he would only be doing this on days that he isn't playing either a practice round or competitive round, but regardless that is A LOT of putting.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Helena I'm pretty sure he said away from tournaments so in his downtime I suppose...we all need a hobby after all haha

[@ImanoffGolf]

Great video Pete! Unfortunately got tired even before hit 200... Poor me.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Imanoff haha you'll be ok

[@joshuacassin3468]

Hey Peter did you line them up all no did you just lag put thanks for the video

[@Leo-oz9me]

I would never be able to do that haha, my posture isnt great so i have trouble with my lower back, been working on strengthening my core and back muscles lately but watching this made my back sore :P

[@runner4eg1]

WOW Pete I think you're right 1, 000 might be too much. I have to work my way up to 200. If I tryed to do 200 in one day my knees and back would mutiny and head back to the car long before I was done. As far as the practice is concerned it depends on what you want to do if you want to shoot low 70, s or 60 s and put in the practice and deal with it.

+runner4eg1 tis true, there's no escape in the correlation between practice, hard work and success

[@stuartgates4954]

Pete.. Are you ever going to do this again? Been a few years now. Be great to see where your stats are compared to this video.

[@peterfinchgolf]

Ill have to get and do another one soon!

[@chetlovesmer9549]

Okay, I finally got to try this. Damned hard. After 500-600 my lower back felt like it was going to explode! It was really distracting. The last 200 or so I was basically just trying to get through it. Took me right about 6 hours! I wonder if Jordan has somebody continually setting and resetting up his putts for him. Otherwise it just takes forever. In my opinion, it would be far more beneficial to do 400 or so first thing in the AM, then like 300 more like right after lunch. Then get the last 300 right before the light fades. I don't know, maybe that's just me. What do you think?

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Chet LovesMer well it seems to work for Jordan but for the average golfer I think 500 is more than enough for one putting session

[@jermckee]

Do you personally see any benefit at all to a forward press prior to the putting stroke?

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Jeremiah McKee it certainly works for some people

[@WolfgangMontag]

Did you use any kind of app for keeping your stats or is it just a gut feeling that between 60-90 you wre missing more putts? If you used an app, I would love to know which one it is :)

[@Andyyy1978B]

+Wolfgang Montag It looks like he was taking 10 putts, then recording the results on a notepad. He'd be able to see quite easily that putts 1-10 he scored 100%, 51-60 70%, 61-70 65% etc etc.

Need a putting green in my yard to keep up with this practice routine.

[@jakebishop7822]

for this drill try and set up the drill somewhere were you will have hooking puts and slicing putts.

[@TheGolfster3]

I am somewhat leery of implementing this regime seeing Jordan Spieth here lately has been unable to locate a hole!

[@joshuacassin3468]

hi peter whats ur scoring average ???????

[@Gleavster]

Any correlation between the music track and putting success rate..!? If so, take ABBA Gold out all the time...

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Christian Gleave I'll have to add that into the equation next time :)

[@andresd11]

Jajajajajajajajaja, I’m gonna play some music so I don’t die mentally inside jajajajaja fantastic!

[@rubendominguez2868]

That was a good lesson... But yes I think 500 would be plenty..! Thanks for posting.

[@peterfinchgolf]

+Ruben Dominguez no worries
