Good Morning Everyone,

Been fighting with the game of golf for about 20 years off and on.  Picked up the sticks for the first time in 18 months on Monday, and found the love that was lost a few years back.  Once I realized the PGA wasn't in need of my services, the game became a lot more fun.  Typically shoot in the high 80's or low 90's, just depends on how much my short game hates me that particular day.  Husband and a father who dabbles in soccer coaching and poker as well when I'm not working.  Interested to meet more people who share the same obsession with an annoying game of chasing perfection, which we all know is unattainable.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
