I would say I go to the range about 3 times a week. I use to go to the range before I would pay but I'm starting to skip the range before playing. I'm starting to see a difference from not knocking down a bucket of balls before 18.

I usually warm up before I play. Other than that I try to get once a week to work on technique. In fact I'm heading out just now.

I usually go once a week and will hit about 200 balls. Sometimes I will go and just work on one club.

Then I will hit the practice green for an hour and work on chipping and putting.

i usually go and split a bucket with my dad before a round if the course has a range. But besides that probably one a month

At least 3 days a week to work on technique. My course doesn't have a range yet so I do not hit balls before my round.

I go the range about once every 2 weeks & this is mainly due to the fact that my local course have a Par 3 course & it cost less than a large bucket of balls. I play the Par 3 about once a week & this is where I practice & work on technique w/ short to mid irons, chipping, pitching & putting. When I do go to the range, I mainly work on my knockdown shots (it's a tempo thing for me) along w/ full swings from 60-100 & 125-150 yards. Practicing knockdown shots helps me w/ my tempo & prevents me from overswinging which at times happens when I've had too much caffeine before my rounds ;). I also work with my driver for this is my least favorite club in my bag. I work on tempo tempo tempo & I'm trying to ingrain in my mind that having the same tempo w/ all my clubs will help me find more fairways with my driver.

Haven't been to the range this year but do hit some wedges on my property. I never was much of a range player. I usually end up pulling something besides my irons.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
