Putting Practice, Upgraded
Feel what works.Fix what doesn’t.Finally enjoy putting practice.
With interactive drills and instant feedback, HackMotion Plus helps you build a putting stroke you can trust—even under pressure.
Did you know? Putting accounts for nearly 40% of your strokes per round, yet most golfers barely spend time practicing it.
Let’s be honest, practicing putting can feel boring.
It’s not as fun as bombing drives or flushing irons, and when you’re not seeing results, it’s easy to convince yourself you’re just a bad putter.
The real problem? Most golfers don’t enjoy putting practice because they don’t know if they’re actually getting better.
HackMotion changes that.
With real-time feedback on your wrist mechanics and putting stroke, you’ll finally see what’s happening in your stroke, start fixing your misses, and enjoy putting practice because you know it’s working.
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.
Master Your Putting Wrist Mechanics
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.
Build a More Reliable Putting Stroke
Distance control issues often aren’t caused by stroke length alone; they come from inconsistent contact, poor loft delivery, or uneven tempo.
In this video, Rob Cheney outlines three elements of a great putting stroke: symmetry, centered contact, and ideal shaft lean.
With HackMotion, you can train each of these with real-time feedback and targeted drills.
Video Breakdown:
- Learn how balanced back-and-through strokes improve energy transfer and control.
- Understand how managing radial/ulnar deviation stabilizes your path and improves contact.
- Discover how flexion and extension influence loft at impact, and how to manage them with HackMotion.
Smooth Out Your Stroke Timing
Great distance control is what helps you get the ball close to the hole.
Consistent putting rhythm and timing, ideally with a 2:1 backswing-to-downswing ratio, are what you’ll need for effective distance control.
Achieving this balance reduces three-putts and improves confidence. HackMotion’s built-in metronome helps you find and maintain the perfect tempo.
Video Breakdown:
- Learn the importance of stroke symmetry and how rhythm affects distance control.
- Rob Cheney demonstrates effective ways to use HackMotion’s metronome feature.
- Implement practical drills that embed consistent timing into your stroke.
Achieve Perfect Shaft Lean
So many amateur golfers set up to hit a putt and push their hands forward because they were told it’s the right move.
The correct shaft lean has a direct influence on putter loft at impact, ensuring consistent roll and distance management.
However, too much forward lean removes loft, causing the ball to skid, while too much backward lean increases loft and creates unwanted hop.
HackMotion’s precise feedback lets you quickly adjust your shaft lean to get a smoother, more consistent roll.
Video Breakdown:
- Understand the risks of incorrect shaft lean positions and their impact on putting performance.
- Learn how slight wrist angle adjustments significantly affect the putter loft.
- Utilize real-time HackMotion feedback to consistently maintain ideal shaft lean.
Strike the Sweet Spot Consistently
When you miss the center of your driver’s face, you’ll see shots that go 20 or even 30 yards offline or short of your target.
With putting, missing the sweet spot may not be as obvious a result, but it still impacts your scoring and ability to get the ball in the hole.
Consistently hitting the sweet spot of the putter improves both directional accuracy and distance control.
HackMotion reveals subtle wrist movements that impact your ability to repeatedly find the center of the face.
Video Breakdown:
- Identify common wrist movement errors affecting sweet spot contact.
- Practice maintaining proper radial/ulnar deviation for optimal putter path.
- Receive instant feedback from HackMotion to reinforce correct wrist mechanics.
Find Your Ideal Putting Tempo
Poor distance control often comes down to inconsistent timing.
Whether your backswing is too slow or your downswing too rushed, that imbalance makes it hard to repeat putts and control rollout.
Great putters tend to have a repeatable tempo, often close to a 2:1 ratio of backswing to downswing.
With HackMotion, you can measure your putting tempo in real time and train it using the built-in metronome, helping you develop a smoother, more consistent stroke.
Video Breakdown:
- Learn how to measure and adjust your putting tempo using HackMotion’s real-time feedback on backswing and downswing timing.
- See why extreme backstroke or downswing speeds kill distance control.
- Use tee gate drills and rhythmic feedback to create symmetrical strokes and repeatable tempo, even across long or short putts.
Learn to Control Distance by Varying Stroke Length
Distance control isn’t just about how fast you swing; it’s about how far back you take the club.
Using a simple tee station and HackMotion’s metronome, you’ll train your ability to pair consistent rhythm with different stroke sizes, helping you master short, medium, and long putts without changing tempo.
Video Breakdown:
- Set up stroke-length gates using tees for short, medium, and long putts, with symmetry guiding your backswing and follow-through.
- Keep your tempo consistent using HackMotion’s metronome.
- Train with and without a ball so the feel and visual cues of your stroke carry over to real on-course situations.
Diagnose and Correct Your Putting Misses
The best putters aren’t those with the perfect stroke; they are the players who know how to do things consistently.
Every golfer has consistent putting miss patterns, typically pulls or pushes caused by wrist instability.
HackMotion identifies these wrist-based issues, enabling immediate and targeted adjustments.
Without HackMotion, you’ll struggle to know if you are getting better or worse.
Fixing these patterns quickly boosts your confidence and reduces frustration. HackMotion also has built-in drills to help you perfect your putting stroke in real time.
Drills to Perfect Your Putting Stroke
- Metronome Drill – Builds rhythmic timing, helping you consistently match your backswing and downswing tempo for improved distance control.
- Flexion / Extension Putting Drill – Trains quieter wrists by maintaining wrist flexion and extension within ±2 degrees, ensuring consistent loft and smooth roll.
- Ulnar / Radial Putting Drill – Stabilizes your putter path by minimizing upward and downward wrist movements, keeping deviations within ±2 degrees for precise contact.
Train Smarter with HackMotion Putting Drills
These aren’t your typical putting tips. HackMotion’s interactive drills show you exactly what your wrists are doing—so you can fix issues fast, groove a repeatable stroke, and see real results on the greens.
