00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.720
this range game is one target all clubs so essentially for this game I'm gonna

2
00:00:06.720 --> 00:00:12.160
use the one target so I'm gonna pick this yardage flag that's about 100 yards

3
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:17.640
away now you basically have to pick one that's relatively close because hitting

4
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:20.600
a target that's a 200 yards away with your pitching wedge just doesn't make a

5
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:25.320
whole lot of sense so I've got this target that's about 100 to say 125

6
00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:30.320
at the upper limit and I'm gonna go through different clubs trying to hit

7
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:38.800
them all to the same target so first one I'm gonna use a pitching wedge gotta

8
00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:38.880
take

9
00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:42.160
a little bit off of it because it's probably more of a gap wedge distance and

10
00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:47.640
I didn't take enough I hit that over the green so for purpose of this video I

11
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:47.640
'll

12
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:52.200
speed up and I'll basically jump every other club or so so this is gonna be

13
00:00:52.200 --> 00:01:00.360
eight iron so now eight iron normally about 160 so I've got to take off fair

14
00:01:00.360 --> 00:01:04.600
amount that wasn't very good hit the right side of the green but it wasn't

15
00:01:04.600 --> 00:01:09.110
the ball flight I was really hoping for and to speed this up I'm just gonna

16
00:01:09.110 --> 00:01:09.600
jump

17
00:01:09.600 --> 00:01:14.560
to four iron so four iron is gonna be really tricky it's almost like a little

18
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:22.040
chip shot pitch shot it's gotta land short unfortunately I landed that on the

19
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.120
green so now it's gonna roll over but now we're gonna get into a little bit of

20
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:32.920
tricky so pull out the hybrid we're gonna do everything but the driver in

21
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:36.960
this particular version so I'm still working on whatever technique I may be

22
00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:45.320
working on but I'm trying to expand it to a little bit of shot shaping and

23
00:01:45.320 --> 00:01:46.200
again

24
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:50.880
that landed at the hundred yards and kind of rolled past so now we're gonna go

25
00:01:50.880 --> 00:01:50.960
to

26
00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:57.320
three wood this is gonna be tricky because this range has kind of some

27
00:01:57.320 --> 00:02:03.360
thick rough before the green so I've really got to be careful with this one

28
00:02:03.360 --> 00:02:13.320
so probably be close to a nine to three style so that landed short just rolled

29
00:02:13.320 --> 00:02:18.680
over I guess the rip the rough isn't quite as thick as I want but this drill

30
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:22.400
can help you with figuring out how to take half shots and how to kind of dial

31
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.440
stuff in very often you will find that you will hit it more accurately with one

32
00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:30.960
club longer than what you would typically hit it's why a lot of

33
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:36.040
tour pros will hit a little bit less than a full shot but this drill will kind

34
00:02:36.040 --> 00:02:36.120
of

35
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:40.240
expose if that's the right method for you
