Ask the expert Is a range lesson or a playing lesson best for my game? Jim C., Camdenton This is a great question and the answer depends on your game. If you are just learning the game the range is probably the best place to start. Work on your fundamentals, get comfortable with making solid contact consistently, and then try to take your game to the course. If you have been playing for some time and are looking to improve your scoring, then a playing lesson may be exactly what is needed. A playing lesson lets a golf professional see where you are losing strokes to better understand how to help you improve. A playing lesson highlights your flaws as there is no consequence to hitting a poor shot on the range. A great format to use during your playing lesson or when working on your game individually is called the two-ball drill. Hit two shots off the tee and select the best one. Hit two second shots and select the best one, and so on. The idea is to see how well you could score if you actually focused properly on each shot. You will be amazed how well you can score doing this and it will breed confidence and give you something to focus on the next time you play only one ball. Either way lessons are a great way to build confidence and enjoy the game more.
