Tour Aim Golf 30-Minute Practice Plan
Ben Hadden is an aspiring TOUR Pro who has a practice routine to match his ambitious goals. He put together a detailed video on how he uses Tour Aim for his 3-hour long practice sessions which you can watch here.
Now, we know most of us are lucky to get in one practice session each week, so we adapted Ben's practice into a 45-shot practice session that should only take about 30 minutes.
1. See the Shot – Visualize the shot you are trying to hit and rehearse the feels in your practice swing to achieve that visualization in your upcoming shot.
2. Hit the Shot – Hit the shot going through your full on-course routine.
3. Analyze the Result – What was good about the shot? What could have been better?
4. Reflect/Connect – Try to look for the positives and focus on what you did well and why you did it well. Carry that into your next shot and repeat the process.
Setup Tour Aim at a target at your favorite stock wedge yardage (a number between 90-130 yards that has you licking your chops on the course).
Change your Tour Aim to a target that is 50-75% of the distance of your previous target.
Ben has a brilliant tip where he practices odd irons on odd dates and even irons on even dates. Grab 3 irons that correlate with the odd or even number date you are practicing on and hit 5 good shots with each. Since today is September 22nd, we’ll use even numbers for this example. Align your Tour Aim to an appropriate target for each shot.
TEE SHOTS/DRIVER
Ben is a believer that all good golfers should love hitting their driver, so spend a bulk of your tee practice with the big dog. That said, most golfers use 2-3 clubs for a large majority of their tee shots, so practice what you play on the course.
