i go to the course stretch wake up then start with wedges to nothing im just trying to feel my swing then i start piking precise target and shape / trajectory from wedges to short irons to mid to long then i usually go putt for 30 mins with one ball go bak to the range work on long game driver woods shape /trajectory. then its strictly short game i will practice my long -shot pitch shots then buker and after that i will practice any thing that im struggling with ...then ill eat lunch and play ...if is play any where around 60's to 72 ill go home if i no im struggeling ill go to the range work it out.....i also have a coach who i see 4-5 times a month as u can see im a serious player who is an aspiring professional...my advice is to switch it up hit half your bucket then putt or chip then go back and finish your bucket

This is both for full practice day or just before a round:

First do acouple of stretches, even a 19....use the cart pull it from the top, with both hands and stretch the back. After that 10-15mins of short putting to get some easy tempo.

Next head to the chipping green, hit a bucket of balls small chips and move up to half swings up to 50yds. I stick to the wedges to get the tempo going again.

Next up to the practice tees. Starting with the 52degree, hitting 15-25 balls with each club or until it fells right! But the key for me is not to hit one and swing 2 seconds later, I set up to the ball and mess with the swing plane and make sure it's all alright (basically a pre-shot routine on every shot). Once it's hit I do a post-shot routine (just like on the course).

Then once it's hit I go back to the putting green and wait for the buddies to show up! Making them think I've been there for 10mins or so!!!

    • Yeah, that's right. I remember now. Pia Nilsson. I've read a couple of her books. "Be A Player" and "Every Shot Must Have A Purpose".  I read them back maybe 10 years ago. ... maybe 5? ... pre-pandemic anyway.  Good memory. 
    • Having had the opportunity to live and work in a few different countries, I've encountered some golf traditions, whether they are well-established customs or unique experiences at local courses. While not all of these are widely practiced, they highlight the diversity and creativity in the golfing world. 1. Japan - The O-Bon Golf Festival In Japan, during the O-Bon (lantern) Festival, I've seen golf courses hosting night golf events with glowing balls and lantern-lit fairways. It's a serene and beautiful way to combine golf with culture.  2. Scotland - The Guising Golfers In Scotland, around Halloween, I've come across golfers participating in "guising," where they dress up in costumes and play a round of golf. It adds a festive twist and a lot of fun to the game. 3. South Korea - The New Year's Honbae In South Korea, golfers play a round of golf on New Year's Day, followed by a celebratory meal and drinks (9th hole and after the game). It's a time for camaraderie and positive intentions for the year ahead. Besides new year's, on higher end courses, they often break on the 9th hole for some light food and drinks like fancy ramen and makgeolli rice wine (ordered in advance). 4. Australia - The Outback Golf Challenge (I have not experienced this one myself) In Australia, there is apparently an Outback Golf Challenge, where golfers navigate rough terrain and face unconventional obstacles. It's considered a true test of skill and adaptability (but hasn't produced many PGA golfers 😉 ). 5. Finland - The Midnight Sun Golf Tournament (I have not experienced this one myself) In Finland, the Midnight Sun Golf Tournament is where golfers play late into the evening under the perpetual twilight of the summer months. The endless daylight makes it a truly unique event. While these traditions may not be universally established, they represent the variety of golfing experiences around the world. I'm curious if any of you have encountered or participated in unique or local golf traditions, whether internationally or closer to home.
    • It's from "Every Shot Has a Purpose" which was co-written by one of Annika's coaches. Decent read about reducing uncertainty and committing to the golf shot.
    • Ah, I didn't realize this was about standing over the ball versus time to play the shot. Definitely two different things there. Yea I would imagine being static over the ball/taking a long time over the ball does make things worse in the long run, hence all the waggles guys will do before pulling the trigger.
    • I'm not sure who said it first but I've seen it a lot. There's this "think box" vs "play box" theory. I've also seen it with a planning vs doing line on the ground. The idea is basically you stand away from the ball (a couple feet) and do your "think box". This is where you do your planning, your swing cues, your practice swings (if you believe in practice swings.) All of that is done in the "Think Box". Then you step into your "play box" address the ball and hit it. Sometimes it's done with a imaginary line on the ground. You do all of the think box stuff behind the line. Then once you cross the line you step up and hit it.  Here's Annika Sorenstam demonstrating the "Think box" and "Play box": So, Annika's time over the ball is really short. Because she did all of that other stuff not over the ball, but in her "Think box".  There are lots of variations on this theme. But I think you get the idea.
