Why do I pull all my putts to the left?

How many people belong to health clubs in UK?
If you are a right handed golfer, you are pulling your head. Bend your knees, pendjulum swing with your shoulders. Constant motion with your body. When you look up first, your swing goes left. Watch the putter hit the ball. Then watch it go in the hole.Help! I need advice on how to hit my irons?
Put your left shoe back onBcos u r not doing it right. (Pun intended)
For myself to put straight, I stand should width apart, straighten my hands and keep the putter in the center. I make sure my eyes is in line with the putter head vertically, then I swing the putter like a pendulum motion and hit the ball, all the time, looking at the same spot. I don't look at the ball until for some time. (I didn't mention about aiming here) For me, the ball went very straight unless the contour of the putting green changes the path. Hope this helps.
How stiff is this golf club's shaft?
Perhaps you are aiming left, and don't realize it? I had that problem off the tee. Golf instructor helped me with that problem. Try aiming a little more to the right. See where putter goes after you hit the ball, Perhaps putter is pulling left. Good Luck.Correct me if I'm wrong but If I kill all the golfers won't they lock me up and throw away the key?
it's either A) your wrists are getting too involved in the stroke...orB) your stroke is moving too quickly and taking an outside-inside path...
go about 6-8 feet from the hole and hit 20-30 putts focusing on keeping your wrists pretty well locked and your stroke moving in a slight reverse "c" arc-

"pulling" your putts is one of three things (or a combination of all of them).-you're aiming to the left and don't know it.
-your stroke is travelling from outside to in.
-your putter face is closed on impact.
when my putting mechanics are way off, I practice on the linolium in my bathroom because it is a rather level floor and the lino has a distinct grid pattern, or squares, about 4 inches apart.
I can line up my putterface with a "vertical" line and track my swing on a "horizontal" line and get the groove of a straight putt at very slow speeds.
once I have a real feel for the slow stuff, I put a pillow against the wall for the ball to hit and swing a little bit firmer, still very concious of the putterface and swing line.
the longer the stroke, the more the swing will come in, to on plane, to in again, but I always aim for about six inches on each side of the ball to be basically "right down the line".
This drill does nothing, or even hurts your feel for weight, which is arguably more important than line, but if I have missed a bunch of five or six footers, I always come back to it.
Make sure that you are swinging your putter with your shoulders and you aren't moving your arms/elbows/wrists at all. Your swing plane is probably outside in, causing your putter face to pull the ball to the left.
What are the benefits of Golf?
This is caused by standing too close to the ball, addressing the ball too far forward in your stance, or improper shoulder alignment. Make sure your shoulders are parallel to the target line and then experiment with ball position until you stop.Moving your head forward usually causes a push because the putter face does not have time to close to square and is left open when it strikes the ball..
Try closing your stance. An open stance might cause you to come across the ball and pull it left.
it depends on how u hit or the slope or depends whether u are a right or left hander
