    one drill i learned years ago, when i lived by Ferris State which is a D2 school, and their coach would have them chipping into the putting greens, and for each flag stick, they had points for being within 2ft, 5ft, 10ft... and they would add up the points at the end of the practice session. And at the time, i when i'd go to the driving range, i'd spend a good hour working on that drill.. and it's amazing how much better i became at chipping onto the green.

    Nice drills, coach seems like a cool guy. BUT….. this is classic TH-cam bull shit. Those drill “rankings” are a joke. Give me his entire team and I’ll bet my house not one completes the chipping drill alone. The PGA tour leader last year got up and down at 67%. Average tour pro 58%. They would be doing that drill in 12-14 shots, choosing their desired club as well not being forced to hit the entire bottom end of the bag and they would blow the doors off a D1 golfer.
    The putting drill, closer to reality if given 5 chances. But one try, nope.
    The sand drill wasn’t setup well at all. You want me to land and stop on a towel but you gave me 10 chunk and run lies from soft sand? Unless you also give me a dremel and let me make my grooves ridiculously illegal that’s not happening. Even with a good lie to rip it back that first bounce is going well off the towel.
    Then the easiest one, the iron drill, not that hard with no distance requirement. However working the ball like that as your iron drilling routinely would be horrible for your game. You hit your natural shape on 99% of approach shots. Tour pros choose to hit a different shape rarely. Even on a tucked pin right a guy who hits a draw is not likely to try to fade one in there. They hit it 20 feet left of the pin and still hit a draw.

      @snagginbirdies1006 22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@GolfBusters From that chipping drill “measurement,” you would not have lost strokes to a D1 golfer. You did good in the drill. The difference between a tour pro and a D1 amateur and a 4ish handicap is consistency. Tiger is famous for the saying but it’s true “everyone’s good is good, the difference is how good is your bad.” D1 isn’t leaving any of the 10 balls in the bunker for example, that’s where strokes get lost. You did well and got 14 in the chipping drill. Do the drill 100 times and the difference will show itself. Pros AVERAGE 58% meaning they will very rarely have a big blowup in that drill, D1’s are going to throw a few 15’s out there and a small amount of 16’s or worse. You’ll have a bunch of attempts where you don’t get up and down a single time or maybe just once and get 17 or 18 on the drill. That’s the separator from you and better players. That coach saying doing that drill in 11 shots is the expectation, a D1 is doing that at BEST 1-3 times out of 100. And if you look at strokes gained between D1 and tour pro for chipping you’ll see they are very close to equal. Saying his guys do that drill consistently in 11 shots is a flat lie. They don’t. I’m a +3 and I play with D1 golfers all the time as they use our club for their practice and beat them regularly. My goal on that drill would be 12, I’d be perfectly happy with 13.
      BTW I’m not trying to hate on the coach, he seems awesome. And he’s doing a good thing pushing the expectation of 11 on his guys but it’s not reality.
