Master Green Reading & Putting Skills: The Zero Break Line, Pace Control & Better Golf with Will Stubbs #416

Master Green Reading & Putting Skills: The Zero Break Line, Pace Control & Better Golf with Will Stubbs #416

Author: Karl Morris July 3, 2026 Duration: 1:03:35

Karl Morris welcomes Will Stubbs, Head of Performance at Zen Golf, for an in-depth conversation about one of the biggest scoring opportunities in golf—putting.

Drawing on the latest research in motor learning, ecological psychology and performance coaching, Will explains why most golfers practise the wrong way and how understanding green reading, pace control and the Zero Break Line can dramatically improve your scores.

Rather than chasing perfect mechanics, this episode explores how elite golfers develop adaptability, awareness and feel on the greens. If you've ever struggled to read putts, judge pace or wondered why putting practice doesn't transfer to the course, this episode is packed with practical ideas you can use immediately.

In this episode you'll discover:

  • ⛳ Why the Zero Break Line is the foundation of better green reading.
  • ⛳ How a simple clock face system makes reading slopes far easier.
  • ⛳ Why pace control is even more important than start line.
  • ⛳ How the world's best golfers solve putting problems through adaptability—not perfect technique.
  • ⛳ Practical ways to make your putting practice far more representative of real golf.
  • ⛳ How understanding gravity, water flow and green contours transforms your confidence.
  • ⛳ Why "playful practice" leads to faster improvement than repetitive drills.
  • ⛳ An exclusive look at the future of Zen Golf, augmented reality green reading and representative practice.

Whether you're a weekend golfer, club player or elite competitor, this fascinating conversation will change the way you look at every putt.

Listen now to discover how better green reading, smarter practice and improved pace control could save you more shots than any swing change.

Karl Morris has spent years working as a performance coach with some of the best golfers in Europe, and in Mind Caddie-Improve Your Mental Golf Game, he shares that expertise directly with you. This isn't just about swing thoughts or technical fixes; it's a deep, practical exploration of the psychology that dictates performance on the course. The conversation moves beyond simple positive thinking to address the real challenges players face: handling frustration after a bad hole, maintaining focus over eighteen holes, and building a resilient confidence that doesn't vanish under tournament pressure. Each episode feels like a personal session, breaking down the mental frameworks used by tour professionals into actionable strategies for any committed player. You'll hear discussions on managing expectations, creating effective pre-shot routines, and understanding how your brain can be your greatest asset or your biggest obstacle. The aim is to provide the tools that help you access your best game more often, turning those range sessions into reliable performance when it truly counts. Tune into this podcast for honest, nuanced talks that get to the heart of why we play the way we do, offering a distinct advantage that has nothing to do with new equipment and everything to do with the space between your ears.
