You never hit a putt you stroke it. That's why its called a stroke 4 or stroke 4 index.

Another thing that amateurs do wrong is they take the head back too far. 5 footers are easy if you take the head back no further than 6 inches and play through the ball.

Also to help you not have to chip so often, if you cant make the shot 8 times out of 10 in your head, don't go for it, take a club less, choke down and relax through the impact zone.
Hmm interesting, thanks, will bear it in mind on my next round (which'll probably be in about 4 months)
