12 reasons to buy the new issue of Today’s Golfer

Ah, putting. Or should that be “aaaarrrrrggggh, putting!” It’s part of the game we all think we should be good at – but in reality, so few of us actually are. It seems so simple. There’s no lunge into the ball… there’s no OB/water/massive slice to worry about… you can’t shank a putt, or hit one fat, or leave one behind a tree… Yet putting really is a dark art.
Given that it’s such an important part of the game – and that many of us will have already walked off a green this spring lamenting those missed four-footers and three-putts from 30 feet – we’ve come up with a comprehensive package to help you improve your stroke and hole more putts this summer.
Here’s our guide to why you should buy the newest edition of Today’s Golfer
