Build a Stroke That Lasts with the Putting Consistency System
Turn frustrating 3-putts into tap-ins with a proven 5-module system that makes your stroke consistent, repeatable, and pressure-proof.
If you ask any great putter how to lower your scores, they’ll tell you the same thing: work on your stroke.
Putting makes up nearly 40% of your round.
A consistent stroke saves strokes, builds confidence, and takes pressure off the rest of your game. But most golfers skip putting practice because it feels boring and they’re never sure if they’re actually improving.
That’s why we’ve created the HackMotion Putting Mastery Course.
Whether you’re trying to make more short putts, improve your distance control, or finally eliminate your consistent miss, this program gives you a clear path forward.
We’ve divided the course into five modules:
- Module 1: Master Your Wrist Mechanics — Learn how subtle wrist movements control loft, roll, and face angle, and why mastering them is the foundation of great putting.
- Module 2: Accuracy & Start Line Control — Develop the ability to start the ball exactly on your intended line and strike the center of the putter face every time.
- Module 3: Tempo & Distance Control — Build touch with drills that train stroke length, rhythm, and tempo so you can stop 3-putting and start rolling everything close.
- Module 4: Wrist Stability & Connection — Quiet your wrists, connect your arms and body, and create a stroke that holds up under pressure.
- Module 5: Practice & Progress with HackMotion Drills — Tie everything together with focused HackMotion putting drills that use real-time feedback to reinforce stability, tempo, and consistency.
Each module includes step-by-step videos from Rob Cheney, plus HackMotion feedback tips that make practice measurable and effective.
Note: Putting features are available on HackMotion Plus and Pro. The videos below include actionable drills you can try—even if you don’t own HackMotion yet. But if you already have HackMotion, now’s the perfect time to upgrade and unlock the full power of putting feedback.
Module 1 Master Your Wrist Mechanics
The foundation of a reliable putting stroke starts with controlling your wrists.
This module shows you how subtle changes in flexion, extension, and rotation influence loft, face angle, and roll quality. By learning to quiet excess wrist motion, you’ll create a stable stroke that delivers the ball on line with the right speed.
These are the building blocks that unlock consistent roll, better accuracy, and the confidence to trust your stroke under pressure.
Subtle wrist movements directly impact your putter’s loft, face angle, and consistency.
By mastering these wrist actions, you’ll greatly improve your accuracy and roll quality on every putt.
Video Breakdown:
- Wrist Flexion/Extension: Learn how controlling wrist flexion and extension ensures ideal loft at impact, eliminating hopping or skidding.
- Wrist Radial/Ulnar Deviation: Stabilize your wrist movements to strike the sweet spot consistently.
- Wrist Rotation: Learn to manage subtle rotations that significantly influence your putter face angle.
Module 2 Accuracy & Start Line Control
Start line is a putting factor that many amateur golfers ignore. Great putters don’t just roll the ball with the right speed; they start it exactly on their intended line.
This module shows you how to eliminate pushes, pulls, and off-center strikes by training two key skills: starting the ball on line and striking the sweet spot of the putter face.
With simple gate-style drills, you’ll build accuracy and confidence on short putts and tighten your dispersion on longer ones.
These are the essentials that transform shaky putting into a stroke you can trust inside six feet.

Build a More Reliable Putting Stroke
Distance control issues aren’t always caused by stroke length; they often come from poor contact, inconsistent loft delivery, or uneven tempo.
This lesson focuses on the fundamentals of a repeatable putting stroke: symmetry, centered contact, and ideal shaft lean. Mastering these elements creates a stroke you can trust under pressure.
Video Breakdown:
- Learn how a balanced, back-and-through stroke improves energy transfer and distance control.
- See why symmetry in your stroke helps eliminate pulls, pushes, and weak contact.
- Discover how controlling wrist flexion/extension improves loft consistency at impact.
- Use HackMotion feedback to monitor shaft lean and stabilize your putting motion.
Centered Contact for Better Roll
Even small mishits on the putter face change how far the ball rolls and whether it stays on line.
Consistently striking the center of the face ensures predictable speed, truer roll, and more made putts.
This lesson shows you how subtle wrist movements influence strike location and how to train a stroke that delivers centered contact every time.
Video Breakdown:
- Understand how off-center contact affects distance and accuracy.
- Learn how controlling wrist radial/ulnar deviation keeps the putter face stable.
- Use HackMotion to identify and correct subtle movements that cause mishits.
- Build a stroke that reliably finds the center of the putter face.
Start Line Gate Drill
Starting the ball on your intended line is one of the most important skills for holing short putts and keeping longer putts close.
This drill uses two paper cups (or tees) to create a gate just wider than a golf ball. By rolling putts through the gate, you’ll learn to start the ball precisely where you’re aiming and build confidence across all distances.
Video Breakdown:
- Place two paper cups just in front of the ball to form a narrow gate.
- Roll the ball cleanly through the gate without clipping the cups.
- Begin with a wider gate for margin, then gradually narrow it as your skill improves.
- Practice from different distances, short, mid, and long, to build consistent start-line control.
Sweet Spot Drill
Centered contact on the putter face is the foundation of speed control. Even small mishits change how far the ball rolls, making distance much harder to predict.
This drill uses two cups or tees to create a gate for your putter head. By swinging the putter cleanly through the gate, you’ll develop a stroke that repeatedly finds the sweet spot for more consistent speed and roll.
Video Breakdown:
- Set up two paper cups (indoors) or tees (on the green) just wider than your putter head.
- Make strokes through the gate without striking the cups/tees.
- Start with a wider gate, then narrow it over time to sharpen precision.
- Repeat across different putt lengths to improve centered contact on every stroke.
Module 3 Tempo & Distance Control
The difference between a two-putt and a three-putt isn’t always mechanics; it’s tempo and touch.
This module shows you how to build reliable distance control by pairing consistent rhythm with stroke length. You’ll train your ability to roll short, medium, and long putts with the same tempo, while sharpening feel and eliminating rushed or jabby strokes.
These are the skills that give you confidence to stop every first putt near the hole and start making more second putts.

Smooth Out Your Stroke Timing
Great distance control comes from consistent rhythm. The best putters use a 2:1 ratio—backswing twice as long as downswing to roll the ball with predictable speed.
This lesson helps you find that rhythm and eliminate strokes that feel rushed or jabby.
Video Breakdown:
- Learn why timing symmetry is crucial for consistent distance.
- See how the 2:1 backswing-to-downswing ratio improves control.
- Practice drills that embed rhythm into your putting stroke.
Find Your Ideal Putting Tempo
Even with the right timing of your tempo, the overall pace of your stroke must be repeatable. Some players are naturally quick; others are slower, but the key is consistency.
HackMotion’s built-in metronome makes it easy to measure and train your tempo across every putt.
Video Breakdown:
- Measure your natural putting tempo with HackMotion feedback.
- Use the metronome to keep tempo consistent across all distances.
- Train from short, medium, and long ranges without changing stroke pace.
Learn to Control Distance by Varying Stroke Length
Great distance control involves pairing the same tempo with varying stroke lengths.
By learning to adjust your backswing size while keeping a consistent rhythm, you’ll be able to roll short, medium, and long putts with confidence.
Video Breakdown:
- Use tees to create stroke-length gates for short, medium, and long putts.
- Match each stroke size with a steady, repeatable tempo (use HackMotion’s metronome for guidance).
- Train with and without a ball so the feel of your stroke carries over to on-course putting.
- Build a reliable system for distance control instead of guessing on every putt.
Ladder Drill
Touch on the greens comes from learning to vary distance smoothly, not just by “hitting harder.”
The ladder drill builds that sense of progressive control by challenging you to roll each putt slightly farther than the last without overshooting your zone.
Video Breakdown:
- Create a target zone using a stick or marker at the far end of the drill.
- Start with a short putt, then roll each successive putt a little farther.
- The drill ends if you leave a putt short of the previous one or roll past the end of the zone.
Module 4 Wrist Stability & Connection
The wrists control both the face angle and the speed of your putts, so when they’re unstable, distance and direction quickly fall apart.
Great putters create a connected motion where the putter, arms, and body move together, reducing excess wrist action and making the stroke far more repeatable.
This module teaches you how to quiet your wrists, stabilize the putter, and deliver consistent shaft lean through impact.
With these drills, you’ll eliminate the “handsy” stroke and replace it with a smooth, reliable motion that holds up under pressure.

Wrist Stability at Impact
Too much forward or backward shaft lean leads to skidding, hopping, or inconsistent roll.
By learning to control your wrists through impact, you’ll achieve the correct amount of lean for a smooth, predictable roll every time.
Video Breakdown:
- Learn the risks of excessive forward or backward shaft lean.
- See how stable wrist angles improve loft delivery and roll quality.
- Use HackMotion feedback to monitor and control wrist stability at impact.
- Train until you can repeat the same lean position consistently.
Forearm Connection Drill
Keeping a soft ball or object between your forearms forces your arms and body to work together.
This reduces independent wrist action and builds a connected, stable putting stroke.
Video Breakdown:
- Place a small ball or soft object between your forearms and take your putting grip.
- Maintain gentle pressure to keep the object in place during your stroke.
- If the object falls, your wrists are taking over the motion.
- Train until the putter, arms, and body move as one unit.
Module 5 Practice & Progress with HackMotion Drills
By now, you’ve built a strong foundation: wrist mechanics, distance control, timing, tempo, and stability.
Module 5 is about tying it all together and making your practice purposeful.
If you’ve ever thought, “If I could just get the right feel, I could repeat it”, this is where HackMotion shines.
The app’s built-in drills give you instant feedback so you can turn those feels into measurable, repeatable mechanics.
