The key to success in golf is to practice. By practicing your game you are due to succeed as long as you are practicing the right techniques you may have learned from a lesson.
“Never try a shot you haven’t practiced.” -Harvey Penick
“The more I practice the luckier I get.” -Gary Player
Practice is the best way get better and it does not have to include going to the driving range. By practicing on realistic golf driving mats or even outdoor putting greens and backyard pitching mats with limited flight balls your game can improve from the backyard.

The best way to lower your golf score is to cut away wasted strokes on the green due to missed putts. While putting is frustrating at times, it is essential to being a good golfer, and by three and four putting you could be ruining a great round due to a mere lack of concentration on the greens.
“I had 38 putts. It hurts. Deep down it hurts. Those three putts killed me.” -Tom Watson
“It really looked as if the ball knew better than to disobey him.” -Bernard Darwin
Most golfers will admit they spend more time at the range with their clubs in their bags and not the putter. By using a putting training aid or even a backyard putting green, three putting could be changed to two putting with consistent practice right in the backyard.
