Guessing about how hard to hit their irons instead of regulating their backswing length. Total confusion really… but this could be the holy grail when it comes to scoring. What good is being a great putter if you are putting for bogeys constantly or doubles?It’s really important to know how far you hit your clubs, and its even more important to equate your backswing length to distance…What I mean by that is that to score from 100 yards and in you’ll need to be accurate from 20, 30, 40, 50 and so on up to 100 yards if you want more birdie chances and par opportunities… and it’s really not super hard to get that kind of accuracy.If you watch TV and watch the pro’s, the commentators don’t really tell you how much the pro’s actually practice using the methods we’re about to show you.In fact, Ben Hogan is famous for having his caddy stand out at certain yardages with a baseball glove and catch his shots. Now, Rich isn’t advocating that, but he does have something close to it that will help you nail varying distances of shots from 100 yards and in.The DrillFootball field suggestion for more accurate yardages and reduce risk of getting slapped with a ball from a hacker on range. Also, maybe break it down in 20 yard increments instead of 10 yards.The Pressure TestGreat drill but missing pressure testing. Play 9 holes of varying distances… for example, pick 30 yards, 60 yards, and 90 yards as target distances. Play them randomly a total of 9 holes. Keep score.The ChallengeGo out this week and practice a total of 3 times, set a benchmark your first time out using the Pressure Test AFTER you do Rich’s drill. Keep that score and repeat two more times. Your goal is to beat your score by the end of the third practice session.Now, I believe in you, and I know you can break 90, 80, and even 70. One of our students is getting very close to breaking par - Larry Horrie. And I believe you can make the PGA or Senior Tour, and I sure as hell think you can become the club champion. You just need to plan out your baby steps and get to work. And you don’t need to spend hours per day practicing. A few minutes here or there is all you need.Go out and try this drill and pressure test… I am convinced if you put in 30 minutes per session over three practice sessions, you can lower your score immediately and in addition gain a lot more confidence. And I know for a fact you’ll be making more pars and looking at more birdies.Christian Henninghttp://golfaggressive.com
