| | | | six feet and attempt to hit the tee peg three |
| With 18 greens to negotiate every round it is | | | | times in a row. |

| | | | to hit a tee peg from six feet and it comes |
| This simple technique should get you sinking | | | | to putting to an actual hole, the hole itself |
| more 6 foot putts than ever before and it | | | | seems a much larger an easier target to hit |
