OK now you are ready with your swinging pendulum of a putting golf stroke. Now if you are putting the golf ball 25 feet of just 1 foot you have the same golf stroke, the pendulum, keep that in mind.
Now you step up and get your stance so that your eyes are directly over the ball. The length of your back swing determines the length the golf ball will travel when struck. It will take quit a bit of practice to figure out the length of back swing to hit the golf ball the correct speed. As a matter of fact you need to go to the putting green every time you go to the golf course. The practice putting green is the same as the greens on the course. So by putting on them when at a new course or the old favorite, you can get your putter speed dialed in before your take six extra strokes on the first three holes while you figure out the green speed.
Of coarse the speed of the putter when it hits the ball is your estimate of what is needed. But you also have to take into account the lay of the land. Are your putting downhill, are you putting across a slope where you have to put uphill and let the ball turn down to the hole and run down hill on its own. Are you putting the golf ball on a straight in, uphill, in the center of the cup shot. All things have to be considered to set up for putting the golf ball the correct angle and distance to ‘put it in the hole’.
I hope this helps your putting because putting golf balls is not an easy thing. practice practice practice.
