Try and get a good angle at the hole, examine all hills and divots in the ground that may stunt your ball from moving at a good speed to reach your hole. Use your hips and be able to see the ball beneath your eyes. But practicing is very keen as well. Simple things such as adding a cup on the floor and putting it into that can give you a good grab on the green. Also a putter with a great aim line and enough durability to work on even the hardest courses is good for the intermediate level and great for pros as well.
