Women’s Golf Drills Week 6: Putting & Course Confidence

Finishing Strong with Putting and Mental Game Mastery

You’ve made it to Week 6—congratulations! This week ties it all together with a focus on putting and building confidence on the course. Strong fundamentals on the green and a positive mindset turn practice into real scoring results.

Why Putting and Confidence Matter

Putting makes up nearly 40% of your strokes. Combine that with a confident course mindset, and you’ll see lower scores without needing to hit it further.

Drill 1: The Circle Drill

Place 5 tees in a circle around the hole at 3 feet. Make 20 putts in a row, restarting if you miss. This builds short-putt confidence under pressure.

Drill 2: Distance Control Ladder

From 20 feet, place tees at 5-foot intervals. Putt three balls to stop near each marker. Mastering distance control helps eliminate three-putts.

Drill 3: One-Ball Mental Game

Play nine holes on the practice green with just one ball. Treat every putt as if it counts for score. This simulates real on-course pressure.

On-Course Practice

Commit to a pre-shot routine and focus on one positive swing thought per hole. Track putts per round and celebrate small wins. Building confidence is the final key to consistent scoring.
