A ball landing one or two feet shy of the hole isn’t considered in.

Therefore, the first step in putting is to hit the ball with just enough
force. Remember: just enough.

This way, if the ball misses the hole, it will still be located fairly
close to the hole & you won’t have much difficulty making the next
putt, given that the ball will still be close.

So, how do you determine how hard to hit the ball?

It’s fairly easy. Go to a practice green & try putts from different
distances until you start to get a better grasp on how hard to hit it
from various lengths.

Practice first from 8 feet, 20 feet, and then from 40 feet. Hit the ball
from different angles around the hole to see how the different
lengths of putts feel.

With sufficient practice, your mind will start to develop a connection
between the exact amount of force that you need to swing & the
right force needed to land the ball in the hole.
