DEAD SOLID PUTTING (Scott Fossum)
Excessive wrist action during the stroke is the cause of many putting woes. Inconsistent distance and direction control are signs of this flaw. Two keys will help you firm up your stroke and regain confidence. 

First, hold the club more in the palms than the fingers. This reduces your ability to hinge your wrists, perfect for the one-lever style motion needed for putting. 

Second, keep the putter low to the ground in the follow-through. This helps keep the wrists firm during the stroke, allowing you strike the ball solidly with the club face square to the target. 

Give these tips a try and soon your putts will be finding the center of the cup!
