Visit a nearby field, toss the BBs up in the air one at a time, and hit them with the broomstick. A baseball swing is fine &#8211; but you&#8217;ll probably want to start with very short swings until you can make contact reliably.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there are other ways to increase your hand-eye coordination. Bounce a golf ball off your clubface. Then try bouncing it off your grip. Got an old club? Try to hit golf balls with the grip end. Invent other games, such as playing darts with your golf swing &#8211; just throw the dart underhanded. A quick word of warning here, though: you may want to clear the room until you can get reasonably close to the dart board every time.<\/p>\n<p>These tip come from a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chuckthehitman.com\/stunt.html\" title=\"The Hit Man\" class=\"external external_icon\">Chuck &#8220;The Hit Man&#8221; Hiter<\/a> segment I just watched on The Golf Channel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Improve your hand-eye coordination by hitting BBs with broomsticks (and other silly games).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-playing_tips"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>BBs (Playing Tips) - The Sand Trap .com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/thesandtrap.com\/b\/playing_tips\/bbs\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"BBs (Playing Tips) - The Sand Trap .com\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"Improve your hand-eye coordination by hitting BBs with broomsticks (and other silly games).\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/thesandtrap.com\/b\/imgs\/accessories\/bbs.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@the_sand_trap\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@the_sand_trap\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Erik J.
