What's your favourite drill?

The one I love doing the most is playing up and down contests with my buddies (if there is time). You alternate choosing chip/bunker shots around the practice green and get the ball in the hole with the least amount of shots (9 holes matchplay).

What's your favourite?

My favorite is going to the driving range with a score card from the other courses, and playing 18 holes from the tee.

For instance, if Hole #1 is a 435yd Par 4, I'll hit my driver 260yds, then try to hit my 7-iron straight 165yds.

Or if the course starts off with a dogleg left, I'll try to shape my driver with a draw 270yds and pick the club for my next shot that will get me on the green.

On the Par 5 holes, I don't try to get on in 2, that way I can use my wedges during this drill.

This drill lets me use a bucket of 100 balls more productively, so I don't feel like I'm just hitting balls.

That's a great drill! I used to do that before playing in a competition....it's like you're actually playing. Thanks for contribution!

I will start with my GW and practice high shots, punches etc to the same distance marker, then move to maybe a 6 iron and try shape the ball each way and more punches etc, then work on my driver and imagine a fairway and have to hit it down that target line

ALWAYS have a target, no point just hitting ball after ball
