The Setup

Equipment: 10 golf balls, a club suited to each shot, and 10 safe targets or target locations.

  1. Choose 10 different targets or shot situations on the practice range.
  2. Decide on a simple routine: choose target, visualize, aim, set up, swing.
  3. Define a reasonable target area for each shot before you start.

What You’ll Learn

Intentional practice, confidence, decision-making, and repeatable routines.

The Challenge

  1. Choose a new target and the shot you intend to play.
  2. Stand behind the ball, visualize the flight, and pick your aim point.
  3. Complete the same pre-shot routine before every swing.
  4. Hit the shot and record both routine completion and target accuracy.
Scoring: Track two scores: routine completed out of 10, and target areas hit out of 10.

Record your result and set a goal for your next practice session.
