But making the 100 putts in a row is almost secondary. The ultimate goal is to build a reliable putting stroke through repetition and to get accustomed to the mental pressure. It might not compare to the pressure of having a three-footer to win the Masters, but after doing the drill for several hours, the pressure builds if you really intend to keep repeating the drill until you get to 100. The point is to face pressure before it counts so you're prepared to face it when it does count. I have no idea how many times he tried, though I’ve heard he did do it.

How many hours did he commit to the "putting drill?" It seems that you did ok for the 1 hour of time you invested. Just don't give up. Each time you work this putting drill you should improve over the last time. Let us know! How many times did Mr. Burke attempt the 100 putt drill before he was able to get 100 in a row?
