💚 CardioGolf® Daily Dose: 1000 3-Foot Putt Challenge
One of the fastest ways to lower your scores? Make more 3-footers.
Three feet sits just outside that “gimme” zone—short, but not automatic. It requires focus, a square clubface, and a confident stroke. Even from 3 feet, there’s often a little break, so you still have to read it and commit. And when you’re lag putting, your goal is simple: get the ball inside a 3-foot circle. If you can clean those up consistently, you eliminate 3-putts and start shaving strokes immediately.
So let’s train it 👇
CardioGolf® 1000 3-Foot Putt Challenge
Goal: Make 1,000 putts from 3 feet in 30 days
Your Monthly Schedule
Let’s keep it simple and realistic.
30 putts a day for 30 days = 900 putts
Okay, not exactly 1,000—but close enough. (If you want to get technical, it’s 33.333 putts per day.) The number isn’t the point—consistency is.
Option 1:
Putt 30 balls in a row
Track how many you make out of 30
Option 2:
Morning: 10 putts
Afternoon: 10 putts
Evening: 10 putts
The goal is to build a habit. Just a few minutes a day can transform your putting.
