Landing in the square – Pitching

In Technical , posted by Virginia on

Set a variety of shots and with some shafts or markers create a landing zone.  A general rule of thumb for the size of the landing zone is that the square should be 10% of the length of the shot.  i.e. 10 meter shot has a landing zone 1 meter square, 40 meter shot has a 4meter square etc.

Your aim is to get the ball to fly and land in the zone on the full.  You do not need to have a finish target for your training.  This drill is more about your intermediate target and landing it in a specific spot.

Once you can achieve it with one club try another club with less loft and see if you can start to control the ball flight.  You are trying to control distance and correct ball flight.
