Practice Your Landing Spots

1/21/2018

When it comes to shots around the green, there are some very common questions. What club should I use? What shot should I hit? How do I practice? An easy way to answer these questions is to decide where the golf ball should land. Golfers too often focus only on the target rather than where the ball needs to strike first. 

Here is a great exercise to help:
  • Place several golf tees down (like the ones  pictured) where you want the ball to land
  • Hit various types of shots that land next to each tee (bump and run, chip, pitch, and lob)
  • Change your angle and target often and move the tees each time
After doing this drill at the practice area, take this focus to the course. The location of the flagstick, the speed of greens, and trouble surrounding the green are just a few influences when picking what shot to play. Remember, decide the landing spot which will help you select the type of shot and the club to use.
 
Happy Practicing!

Multi-Purpose Training Aid -  "THE ORANGE PEEL"

1/20/2018

0 Comments

 
The creators of the Orange Whip have created a great aid that has multiple purposes and is very simple to use. Here are some keys to utilizing the "Orange Peel" effectively:

  • UNEVEN LIES: Make practice swings sensing all four uneven lies - downhill, uphill, ball above the feet, and ball below the feet.
  • Fix your SWAY: Because the peel is curved, it helps you to solidify your base while making swings. This is especially important if you sway or have excess lateral motion in your backswing or downswing.
  • Prevent Excess Movement: Besides preventing the sway, the curvature of "the orange peel" also allows you to prevent rocking from heel to toe or toe to heel during your golf swing. 


"The Orange Peel" can be used at the range or at home and is a great tool for fixing balance issues and helping you get comfortable with uneven lies.

Happy Practicing!
