Divide shots into 3 groups of 12 shots: first 12 curve left-to-right past the left cone, next 12 curve right-to-left past the right cone, final 12 alternate between both directions.

6

Set up the ball the same for all shots.

7

A shot is successful if it passes outside the correct cone and lands within 3 yards of the flag.

Day 43

All Wedges (LW to PW) | Weaknesses Discovery

Program: Center of the green: reduce spread on wedges

Discover weaknesses amongst wedges shots and clubs to avoid in critical situations. Hit one bucket of ~50 balls.

Driving Range43 min
Diagram for All Wedges (LW to PW) | Weaknesses Discovery

Pick flags/targets (one or more) suitable for wedges (LW,SW,GW and/or PW). Create a perimeter around the flag at [5% of the total distance to the flag] using four cones or buckets (or use imagination). Pick one flag/target to hit to and one cone on the opposite side to avoid. Hit 15 balls with each wedge (one bucket of ~50 balls). Goal is to hit as close as possible to the target while avoiding the opposing cone (opposing can represents an obstacle: water hazard, sand trap or similar). The type of shot/club that finds the obstacle is a weakness. Switch between flags/targets. Switch between wedges throughout the exercise. Work on any ball flight.
