When I go to the driving range, I do what I always do. 7-iron, driver, and that's it.
I do what I always do because I don't know what to practice.
The answer is already in my hand. It is that day's scorecard.
01It only takes 5 minutes after the round ends.
A quick moment at a meal or in the car is enough.
- Review the strokes per holeWhere the pars, bogeys, and doubles are clustered
- Mark the hole that was lost significantly.Holes with triples or more
- I will write a line explaining why I did that.OB, three-putting, two bunker shots
These three things are all you need. If you try it just three times, you'll see a pattern.
02Four things to count
If you count the numbers, it's not an intuition but the facts that come out.
| what | To some extent |
|---|---|
| Number of three-putts | Putting practice if you do it 3 times or more |
| OB/Hazard Penalty | Select tee shot club if 2 or more times |
| Holes hit from the bunker more than twice | Bunker practice if it's 2 or more times |
| More than twice within 100 meters | If it's 3 times or more, it's an approach |
Choose only the largest number. That is the next practice topic.
If you try to fix all four, nothing will work.
03Our archives counts them for us.
You don't have to count them manually. They are all in the archives on the site.
- Par, Bogey, and Double countIt comes out at a glance.
- scores by holeI can see which hole I always lose on.
- Trend by roundWhether it is getting better or not
- CompanionYou can see it in the group formation lab.
If you try to remember on your own, you only remember the holes you hit well. Numbers are honest.
04Writing honestly comes first.
I have a favor to ask of you here.
- Holes that are marked OK add one stroke ([[LINK:L20]] side)
- If you played a mulligan, that's strong too.
- Don't leave out the OB penalty either.
If you omit things, the record looks nice, but you get a wrong idea of your skills.
If you don't know, you don't know what to practice either.
This is especially true in places like ours where years' worth of stuff piles up.
You have to write it honestly for that record to become yours.
05Things to do at the next practice range
Once you have chosen a topic, write it like this.
| The problem of that day | Next practice |
|---|---|
| three-putting | 20 times the 10-meter distance control at the putting practice range |
| OB | Practice tee shots 20 times with woods and utilities |
| bunker | Visit the bunker practice range. |
| Approach | 9 o'clock backswing with a wedge 30 times ([[LINK:L18]] Part) |
Spend 40 minutes of the hour on that topic. Spend the remaining 20 minutes as usual.
06It changes in a month.
5 minutes per round, one topic per practice.
If you do this for just one month, you won't waste time wandering around trying to figure out what to fix.
That's all for Part 4.
I’ve divided the story into ten parts about how a score isn't determined solely by shot skill.
- Where to aim ([[LINK:L31]])
- Which club to hold([[LINK:L37]])
- Whether to pass or cut ([[LINK:L38]])
- What to aim for ([[LINK:L39]])
In Part 5, I will tell a slightly different story.
Is the person you play with comfortable? Actually, that lingers for a long time.
