SPeeD Range Practice Drills
Developing a full swing on a driving range is where most golfers spend a majority of their practice time. Golfers want to be able to get near the green before they worry about their short game. Why practice the short game, when it takes one, two, three or more extra strokes to get to the putting green?
Most golfers know that in order to be a better ball striker, one must hit hundreds of practice balls per week. Another way is to take a lesson or two. Unfortunately, the learning curve after taking a lesson can frustrate and discourage anyone. "Traditional methods" suggests that the way to have more consistent play on the golf course is to hit thousands of practice balls.
Most golfers try to improve or maintain their full swings using traditional methods. Whichever reason you practice for, improvement or maintenance, I am certain that you want your practice sessions to transfer to the golf course. Unfortunately, practicing golf using traditional methods does not transfer effectively to the golf course during play.
Traditional methods require you to hit balls on a line at a flag or target. Hitting a ball on a line, even when the line is intentionally curved, is difficult for 99% of all golfers, especially when you attempt to transfer that expectation to the golf course.
SPeeD Range Drills are similar to hitting balls on a practice range using traditional methods, but different in many ways. One difference is allowing your shots to have acceptable margins left and right of your target. Another difference is being able to emphasize distance control with an acceptable margin for mis-hits. Another difference is having tangible feedback.
