A golf putting device with guide rails, semi-circle placed into the real putting green cup and a round cup target with a flag that slides into varying positions of inches from behind the real cup ranging from 1 inch to 18 inches. A golf ball must have sufficient velocity to make it the target cup behind the real putting green cup in order for the ball to make it into the real cup. By attempting to putt past the actual putting green cup helps train the golfer to have consistent putting speed to overcome the fact the balls velocity slows down in its approach to the real cup where it's more likely to be affected by any defects on the putting surface. The ability of the device to slide behind the real cup, closer and or farther allows putting from various distances and speeds further training the golfer.
