The 4 R’s Putting System Club Golfers Are Using To Shoot As Low As 8 To 10 Shots Better Than Their Handicaps

“14 Handicap, Ross, Broke His Handicap By 9 Strokes TWICE and Reduced His Handicap From 14 To 10!”

Peter from Florida shot a 4-Under Par 68 without a bogey and stated he is confident and putting better than in any time in his 40 year career.

Scorecard below: TAP Creator’s 9 Birdie, 7 Under Par – Using The 4 R’s Putting System.

Course: 136 slope & +1 Course rating; 2012 course, 6100m/6700 yards). Not overly long back but tight with OB on 13 holes, water in play on 9 holes.

Low rounds & consistently solid putting over years doesn’t simply happen by “feeling good one day,” it requires a Putting System that you know, is revisable, and works under competition pressure.

Video Below: Learn how two mid-high handicap golfers switched their focus used to go from bad to excellent 12 putts/9 holes putting. (Ray and Joan’s stories.)

Above video explains (or read the stories) of how Joan (story) had 24 putts in a one of her club championship rounds (she won the championship) while not aiming her putter-face at the hole, and how 18 handicapper Ray (story), went from 3-putts on his front 9 to 6 one-putt greens in his final 10 holes by redirecting his focusing.

The 4 R’s Putting System that gets golfers FOCUSED on The Things That Matter in Putting

Preface: Once you set up with your eyes over the ball as nearly all great players have done and do, you are good to go. Wristy or pendulum stroke, different putters, whatever, not that important. When you focus on the “things that matter” a good stroke happens naturally and the ball will roll along the chosen path at the correct speed to the hole. (Watch or read Ray and Joan’s stories and or the success stories for successful examples.)

The 4 Rs of Putting

R 1 – Read: Select the path and correct speed for the ball to the hole. On short and or straight putts, not as much reading is required versus, long, sloping, or breaking putts; you must “do your homework” on these or suffer the missed putt or 3 putt. The homework generates your intention which is speed + line. If you know you intention (line + speed) and apply it,  you always hit good putts. Mental chatter, questioning, do-this-do-that commands sabotage your instinctual reaction to the target.

In TAP, you are taught to keep focused and trust yourself and your 4 Rs Putting System. This breeds confidence and excellent putting.

R 2 – Routine: Routine-one is your reading process – doing your homework. Routine-two, is setting up to the ball and taking the putter back (set up and alignment, looks at the hole, practice strokes or none). Your routine keeps you FOCUSED on applying your intention to the ball (speed or feel + line), not ANYTHING else. Remember above in the video about Ray’s story or read it here. His putting became outstanding quickly when he stopped think about the stroke and let it happen naturally – by being focused on line and speed.

And the best putters can be nervous (as I get too), but if you have a routine to follow, you can continue to make putts and keep a good round going – even when the pressure is on.
Having a dependable routine is also a passport into the zone.

In The Truth About Putting Training Course we cover all of these elements in detail – what to focus on, putting well under pressure, correct physical and mental routine, rock-solid short putting, and feel-enhanced medium and long putting.

R 3 – React!: You swing the putter with the right amount of energy (feel) you generated from R1 – the reading. No waiting, thinking, second guessing or eyesight required at this point, you are using FEEL. When applied correctly you can go many rounds without 3-putting and you will also make a lot of putts.

Mindset: Putt to the hole like how a hunter throws at his prey – his target.
He is not focused on his arms, hand or body. He is simply aiming and throwing at target.

R 4 – Review: once you know the 4 R’s intimately, your honesty, awareness and critiquing of R’s 1, 2 and 3 will determine how good a putter your become.

It’s not that the 4 R’s a revolutionary to serious golfers in 2025, it is that there are so many other elements in putting that take golfers attention and focus off the “things that matter” – which is reading the correct line and speed, set up and aiming then putting the ball to the target at the correct speed.

“Many golfers are delusional and not honest with themselves so they continue to putt poorly”

• • FACT: “Lip outs are off-line putts that miss the center of the 6 inch wide hole by 3 inches. They literally miss the 6 inch space of the hole where there is no lip/edge. The antidote to this delusion is an HONEST REVIEW – rate your putts from 1 to 10 for speed and line. (See a psychologist if you rate a lip out 10 out of 10. Accept a 9 out of 10 putt or less or, review it and improve your process.)
  • FACT: “The putt didn’t break” or “broke too much”. Placing blame on the inanimate object: the green, is delusional.  The antidote as above, is an HONEST REVIEW (R 4) of R 1 – the Reading.
  • FACT: Missed short putts are nearly always missed because of anxiety. We know that we should hole these putts… This in turns increases our anxiety (for every player). As detailed in the TAP training Course, the solution as used by all great players is to use a mental anchor and streamlined routine and system that keeps the mind focused and calm and this in turns lets the stroke REACT (R 4) NATURALLY and free – without the corruption of the correct tempo or putter face opening and closing.

This is covered in detail in the Truth About Putting Training Course.

With this superior mindset all missed putts are are gifts and feedback on what to do correctly on the next putt and subsequent holes and rounds.

Treat missed putts as gifts. Great putters learn from their misses, move on and use the feedback to putt better right away.

Being honest with yourself about missed putts revolves around you critiquing the first 3 Rs as outlined above (this can take as few as a few seconds after a putt).

Miss a putt, do an honest review; it can be fixed on-course and can be critiqued and worked on in practice. The answer is in the system.

This is not unproven theory, these principles, systems and mindset are used and relied on by all great putters – from PGA Tour pros to Amateurs that putt well.

As viewers of golf it is impossible to know the processes and talk going on inside a players head – even though it is at the core of excellent putting – as well as a streamlined physical process. Both are taught in the TAP training course.

“66 Years Young, Californian, 10-Handicapper Lewis, Has Gone From Shooting 85+ To Shooting In The Mid 70’s. And Recently, He Shot A 74 – Which Included Just 24 Putts!”

No more yips, 10 Handicapper Ian, learned how to calm his mind and think better; he went from 36 putts/rd to the low 30s and recently broke par (69) for 18 holes

65 Years Young, 8-Handicapper Larry From Huston, Texas, U.S.A…. Larry tells me that over 20 rounds – he has gone from an average of 34 putts/round to 30.5 – a 3.5 shot/round improvement (to go with lower scores).

“The new information and the reminders each week [email lessons] to practice the putting routine is a key element to success.

The putting routine has become a habit now, along with mapping a spot or spots on the putting surface to make your stroke to the hole. When I would catch myself not doing this, the results weren’t very good. When I do my routine, the results are usually very good.

The mindset now is that I should make every putt inside of 20 feet and that I will always have a tap in on any length putt if it doesn’t go in the hole. I don’t ever think now that the putt is not going in. What a different thinking from 4 months ago. Thank you again Anthony for all your help. You really have something with “The Truth About Putting.”
My sincere gratitude and thanks.
Larry Pearson”

69 Year Old David Shot an Astonishing 5-under par 67!

David used The Truth About Putting and The Automatic Golf System (a Ball-striking and scoring program) as refreshers to be less technical and to get back to the things the matter for scoring low: Thinking, Seeing, Feeling, and Swinging (Review.)

 Michael had the Yips…                                                                     The Truth About Putting program help shift his focus from new putters, grips and strokes to universal principles such as line, speed, target and a dependable routine.
