Remember this!
Putt and stroke are both terms used in golf to describe different types of shots. A putt is a short and gentle shot made with a putter on the green, intended to roll the ball into the hole with precision and finesse. A stroke, on the other hand, is a longer and more forceful shot made with any other club, intended to move the ball a greater distance towards the hole with power and strength.
