A putting aid to increase a golfer's accuracy on the green is disclosed, comprising a short leg and a long leg hingedly secured to the short leg. The long leg is provided with a plane mirror and the short leg is rigidly secured to the under-surface of the peak of a standard cap worn by the golfer and at an angle of 45.degree. relative to the forward direction. When the golfer takes his stance for putting, an image of the flag pin making a direct line between the hole on the green and the golf ball appears to the eye closest to the hole. At the same time, the golfer, without moving his head, can place the putter face at the appropriate angle to the flag pin image which is viewed as connecting the hole and the ball. Coacting magnets and a flat hinge spring are provided to maintain the long leg in both a housed position and a viewing position, respectively.
