When it comes to being able to consistently putt well, there is no other golf putting fundamental that is more important than your golf putting alignment. Without initially having the correct putting alignment in your golf putting setup you are asking for all sorts of problems.
If you are not aligned correctly then you will only be able to hit the putt along your intended line by compensating some other part of your golf putting stroke, which will open the door up to errors!
The reason golfer’s find it a problem getting their putting alignment right is because when they setup to the ball their body is in a position that is perpendicular to their target line. This perspective can create the illusion that you are aligned correctly when actually you may be aligned to the left or to the right of the target.
How to solve your golf putting alignment:
The easiest way to solve your golf putting alignment issues is on the practice putting green (or at home or work on the carpet of course!!) Take a couple of extra golf clubs along with you and lay one of them down next to the ball position, so it is pointing towards the hole or target you are aiming for.
Lay the second club down on the putting green so that it is parallel to the first club and is just inside the position that you will take your stance. Now make sure that your shoulders, hips and feet are in line with this club.
This will give you the perfect putting alignment, so all you need to do is make sure that your head position is directly on top of the ball position and work on developing a solid and reliable golf putting technique
