Yo I’m drunk af right now, but this whole vid checks out

As someone new to the sport, this video is packed with great tips for the range. I can't wait to take my mate with me and get stuck into it!

[RealgolfWD]

Some cracking tips. Always struggle to focus on certain things when at the range so I'll give these a go. Keep up the good work Rick!

Thanks for the tips Rick. When I'm at the range I take half an hour to play an imaginary 18 hole round of a course I know well. That way, I'm mixing up the clubs and distances as you would in a proper round of golf. You only get one shot at each shot on the course so hitting 3 poor drivers then killing the 4th one counts for nothing in reality. I find recreating that on the range really useful as I used to struggle terribly with my 2nd shot on par 4 and 5's after switching from a wood to an iron. I'd inevitably hit a bad 2nd shot then my 3rd was decent. This practice has helped a lot.

I've been going to the range without a routine, going to be trying this now. Thank you. Can you do something on reading greens and putting? This has been the most perplexing part of the game for me personally. I'm finally at a point where I think I can hit the distance I want but aiming is a guessing game.

I once did a few balls at my local range ( first time ) and the guy came out and said Oi no professionals watch out because there was an incoming flight from Majorca about to land, so they had to divert all flights for the afternoon because I wouldn't calm down. Best golfer they'd seen in 40 years apparently.

lol I had kind of a tough time following around 8:00. Like, aim everything right and if you aim right far enough it goes left? lol

[kylegerken]

Wow that Foot powder spray might be one of the best tips I've gotten off of Youtube! Works like a charm

[williambryan]

New to your channel. Great teaching. Too many times I hit balls too fast at the range.

[Peter-oytl]

great vid, thanks guys. I often struggle with how to focus my time at the range and to make the best of the time, rather than just going and randomly hitting balls.
Have you got a similar vid on how to structure your putting practice sesh? cheers

[troyanfumar]

Now I know one of the basic.
Thank you Mr.Rick

[johnnyappleseed]

Yes....I never go to the Range without Impact Tape....The feedback it provides is priceless when it comes to the proper set-up....

Honestly, this is probably one of your most informative videos to date....Well done, sir.

[narvik]

Excellent, gives purpose to a range session

[JH-ofxz]

Great advice. My favourite clubs are my wedges. I made the mistake of using all my time hitting from lob wedge including a gap wedge through to 9 iron 3 times per week for about 3 month. Gradually I lost the correct swing plane for my long irons and driver. Causing hooks and low ball flight. So as the man says share the practice out or you could do more damage.

[williag]

Great tips Rick. Hopefully I’ll be having Feb off work. Some serious practise to be had on the range and course

[RicksCafeAmericana]

Fantastic, Rick. Thanks for this excellent routine. Off to the range...

[realonethreesevens]

What are y’all’s thoughts on grass vs the matt at the range

[puttshankur]

Started going live on instagram in my practice sessions last week. 😊 ⛳

[davidfirst]

Great session, these routines and tips are really going to help me. Can you recommend a selfie stick brand that is light and robust?

[tracymcdonald]

Great advise Rick. I have been needing to practice with a purpose. Now I have a good place to start
