Golf Practice Tips to Apply Every Time

Author: Nicolus Cage

Any golf pro will tell you that you should incorporate a regular, but flexible set of golf practice routines into your golf practice sessions.  Here are a few golf practice tips and golf practice advice you can apply every time you hit the range!

Golf Practice Routines Mindset


1. Practice with focus—define exactly what you want to get out of your practice routines before you practice.

2. To lower your golf scores, devote half or more of practice routine time to short game (pitching, bunkers, chipping and putting).

3. Have a different mindset when you play vs. when you practice.  When you practice, focus on golf fundamentals and ingraining the proper golf swing movements in all phases of your game, when you play the game, resist analysis and focus only on the target of your next shot.

Develop Consistent Practice Routines Plan

To develop consistency in your golf swing, you should also be consistent with your golf practice routines and stick to a consistent overall golf practice routine plan with flexibility built into the routine to accommodate problem areas or other targeted areas of your golf game.  Here is a sample golf practice routine:

1. Start with a pre-swing warm up including light stretching and tempo drills.

2. Spend a few minutes to rehearse and instill the key positions of your full golf swing in slow motion from backswing and top of backswing to impact, release and finish positions.  Practice these golf swing positions at various speeds until you have a nice fluid swing that feels natural.


3. Set up an alignment station to ensure your golf shots are on target.

4. Loosen up by performing short pitch golf shots and chip golf shots.

5. Practice your full swing mechanics with select golf practice drills for four shots to help install the fundamentals of the golf swing.

6. Then, for the next four shots, carry out your normal golf swing emphasizing a smooth, fluid motion.

7. Continue alternating between four practice shots (with focus on drills and mechanics) and four shots for the fluid swing.

Proper mindset and consistent golf practice plan will boost your golf skills and help you to become expert golfer in the practice range.
