IRON CITY BUMP & RUN
Goal: Develop more options for your greenside play. Become aware of how loft, affects spin, carry, and roll.
What to do: Chose one of the following sets of clubs:
(6-iron, 8-iron, pitching wedge)
(5-iron, 7-iron, 9-iron)
Place a towel at varying distances on the green. Using distance control,
from a clean lie, hit balls that come to rest on the towel.
You have finished this drill when: You have successfully hit 10 balls that come to rest on the towel, with each club from your chosen set, to each of the following distances:
Short 5-8 paces
Medium 9-12 paces
Long 12-16 paces
Variation: Compete with a teammate. See who can finish each stage of the drill in the fewest number of attempts.
Use this drill to increase the number of options that you have around the green. Find out which clubs work best for you at each distance. The shot to hit is not always going to be the gap wedge, sand wedge, or lob wedge. If you believe this, you are playing with fewer weapons in your bag than most of your competitors. Especially those players that can get it up and down from anywhere.
