Pick a flag/target suitable for driver. Hit one bucket of ~50 balls using driver only – focusing solely on downswing. Work on at most two downswing thoughts or tasks to produce any displayed ball flight.

‍

Approach #1 – in a row (harder). Pick a flag/target suitable for woods (Hy,5W,3W). Hit one bucket of ~50 balls using woods only. To complete the challenge, hit 5 different shots in a row to the same flag: straight, draw, fade, pull-fade, push-draw. Switch between woods throughout the exercise. Count total number of successful shots.

Approach #2 – until successful (easier). Pick a flag/target suitable for woods (Hy,5W,3W). Hit one bucket of ~50 balls using woods only. Goal is to keep hitting one type of shot until successful (straight, draw, fade, pull-fade, push-draw) then hit a different type of shot to the same flag. Switch between woods throughout the exercise. Count how many times it takes to hit a successful shot.

‍

Scatter 5 cones or buckets [10 y/m apart] on the driving range – as displayed. Use suitable wedges (LW, SW, GW and/or PW). Hit 10 balls to each target (one bucket of ~50 balls) using wedges only. Land the ball inside [3 y/m area] from the target. Switch between wedges throughout the exercise.

Approach #1 – randomly switch between targets.

Approach #2 – start with the shortest target and progress to the longer targets.

Approach #3 – start with the farthest target and progress to the shorter targets.

‍

As displayed, create 5 target cones [10 y/m apart] to test for distance and three corridors [12 y/m apart] to test for dispersion, anywhere from [220 to 300 y/m]. Hit 10 balls to each target cone (one bucket of ~50 balls). Test various types of shots. Randomly switch between target cones and between woods. Keep count of the differences in distance and dispersion for each target cone and each club. Draw conclusions about strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and tendencies, at the end of the discovery session.

‍

Pick flags/targets (one or more) suitable for woods (Hy,5W,3W,Driver). Hit 15 balls with each wood (one bucket of ~50 balls) to one specific target – in an open field, without any visual aids around. Shots that most often end on the target are the shots worth sticking to – test various types of ball flights to further discover strengths – shots that often stray away or have a wide dispersion are not a strength. Switch between flags/targets and woods throughout the exercise.

‍

Scatter 10 cones or buckets [10 y/m apart] on the driving range – as displayed. Use suitable wedges (LW, SW, GW and/or PW). Hit 5 balls to each target (one bucket of ~50 balls) using wedges only. Land the ball inside [3 y/m area] from the target. Switch between wedges throughout the exercise.

Approach #1 – randomly switch between targets.

Approach #2 – start with the shortest target and progress to the longer targets.

Approach #3 – start with the farthest target and progress to the shorter targets.

‍

Pick a flag/target suitable for long irons (4,3,2). Hit one bucket of ~50 balls using long irons only. Goal is to consecutively hit one type of shot and then its opposite – hit opposites 5 times in total to complete the challenge. For example, hit 1 fade and 1 draw, five times. Then hit 1 high shot and 1 low shot, five times. Then pull/fade and push/draw, five times. Hit opposites to the same flag. Switch between long irons throughout the exercise.

‍

Pick a flag/target suitable for woods (Hy,5W,3W). Hit one bucket of ~50 balls using woods only, focusing on hitting a straight shot. Work only on producing a straight shot. Switch between woods throughout the exercise.

‍

Pick a flag/target suitable for woods (Hy,5W,3W). Create three landing zones [12 y/m apart] around the flag using cones or buckets (or use imagination). Hit 15 balls to each landing zone (one bucket of ~50 balls) using woods only. Work on any ball flight. Randomly switch between landing zones. Switch between woods throughout the exercise. Count total number of successful shots.

‍

Pick a flag/target suitable for short irons (9,8). Create three landing zones [6 y/m apart] around the flag using cones or buckets (or use imagination). Hit 15 balls to each landing zone (one bucket of ~50 balls) using short irons only. Work on any ball flight. Randomly switch between landing zones. Switch between short irons throughout the exercise. Count total number of successful shots.

‍

Pick a flag/target suitable for mid irons (7,6,5). Create quadrants around the flag using four cones or buckets (or use imagination) – position cones at [5% of the total distance to the flag]. Hit 12 balls to each quadrant (one bucket of ~50 balls) using mid irons only. Work on any ball flight. Randomly switch between quadrants. Switch between mid irons throughout the exercise. Count total number of successful shots.

‍

Pick a flag/target suitable for mid irons (7,6,5). Hit 25 various left-to-right ball flights and 25 various right-to-left ball flights (one bucket of ~50 balls) using mid irons only. Work only on producing a left-to-right and right-to-left shots. Switch between mid irons throughout the exercise.
