5 Golf Driving Range Tips

September 14, 2007 | under Beginners, Golf Practise |

The driving range is meant to be a serious practice tool which can benefit every golfer’s game. We should make full use of every trip to the driving range. Here are five practice tips for you to keep in mind the next time you hit the range:

1. Do not just knock balls into the air for the mere benefit of seeing them fly. Instead, have a goal of exactly what you want out of each session.  Decide what you want to achieve and focus on that.

2. Always aim for a target, whether it be someplace on the artificial green, a yardage marker sign, or a patch of grass.

3. Learn when to stop. When you come to the point on the driving range when you have reached your goal for the day, learn when to stop. Hitting too many balls can lead to injury and boredom.

4. Give equal practice time to your short game as you do your long-distance shots.

5. When practicing your short shots, never hit them from the same spot each and every time. Vary your length and distances for faster progression. Also vary the directions so that you are not always aligned the same way.

Happy Practising…

    I fully agree with your points. One I’d like to add is that many people on the driving range just hit one ball after the other, often without looking where the shot went. In my eyes this is a waste of effort.
    I suggest to hit a shot, look at it, analyze it and make adjustments as needed. This way fewer balls can lead to actually faster progression of the game, and it’s also a lot less stressful.

    Hi Frank,

    Yes I have noticed that and it is the reason I wrote this post.

    Hitting a shot and analyzing it is important. Driving range is the place where we can change and practise…..not at the course.

    Cheers
