Listen to make more putts.
I was at the Masters in 1996 and it was late in the evening, and Nick Faldo was practicing 8-10 footers. He was working on something that many golfers can benefit from. Here is how it works.
Take a few golf balls and put them in a circle approximately five feet away from the cup. See if you can listen for the ball to fall into the hole. It is harder than you think. Try to swing the club back and forth the same distance this will help control how far the ball will roll.

Tucked away in the center of Hope Plantation, just outside of the Kiawah
gate, lies the newly renovated Oak Point Golf Course. Referred to most
frequently as a Scottish-American style course, this par 72 borders the historic
Haulover Creek on the grounds of an old indigo and cotton plantation. Wide areas
of windswept fairways stretch alongside salty marshes interspersed with densely
forested areas of live oaks, magnolias, pines and palmetto palms. In addition to
its new $1 million clubhouse, renovations to the course, including a spectacular
new 9th hole directly on the Haulover Creek, makes Oak Point a
"must play" course in the Lowcountry. It was recently awarded 4 1/2 Stars in Golf Digest's "Best Places To Play" readers' poll where it was called one of the best values in South Carolina
