Lengthen Your Backstroke For Better Lag Putting
Most average golfers have difficulty judging the speed of long putts.
To improve distance control, concentrate on making the backstroke longer and don't worry so much about accelerating through the ball. The pace of your stroke should be the same speed back and through. The follow through may be shorter than your backstroke due to the resistance of the ball at impact.
The momentum that's created on the backstroke combined with gravity, the putter and the weight of the arms will move the putter through resulting in better contact and distance control.
2x4 Drill
Take a 2x4 about six inches in length and place it on its side along the left edge of the hole. With the heel of the putter against the board, place the ball even with the sweet spot on the putter, about four inches from the hole. Stroke the putt without the heel leaving the board. This will help your stroke to go straight back and
straight through.
