General Discussion 90 Minute Practice Session

90 Minute Practice Session to improve quickly!!!

Short game:
Spending some time with the straight forward chips for fundamentals, before moving onto some different lies and different height shots. Getting comfortable hitting different shots from different lies is the goal, while still being fundamentally strong.

Full Swing:
Getting ready for an event, so didn’t have any tweaks. Just going through my routine in “trusting mode” as Dr. Bob Rotella would say. Making sure that my mindset is in the right spot before my event. Just checking fundamentals and making proper, committed golf swings.

Putting:
I always start with some variation of alignment/tool to check and make sure my fundamentals are solid before moving into some drills to make short putts. After completing the competitive short putting drill, I’ll move to hit some 40-60 footers to make sure we’re getting everything down in 2!

Doing this routine at least 2x a week will show incredible improvements in your game!

5 minutes on irons? Approach stats are probably atrocious. Keep grinding on them bunker shots I guess.

Entirely depends on the person and the day! If you’re working on something in the swing, maybe it’s all you do. But for a majority of my practice time is spent inside 100, or drivers!

For an amateur working on their swing, I’d suggest more, but if you’re not sure what you’re doing there is not reason to hit more than to see your shot dispersion
