Golf Tip of the Month
 Put to a tee.
Before a round and while you practice putting, get away to an open area on the practice green. Place a tee in the ground and putt so that you hit the tee instead of putting to a hole. Start with one-foot putts and then gradually move back to two feet and then three feet. Keep stroking your putts and hitting the tee until it's time to go to the first tee. Once on the course, the whole will look very large to you, and your confidence will soar. You will find that you will have one of your best putting days because of the change in perspective that you got on the practice green.
