Hole19 App

People go to the driving range for a variety of reasons. Some go to practice, other go to relax, and some just go for something to do. The one thing that notice not only at my club but also at other facilities that I visit is that most players gravitate towards the driver.

Ten with Rickie 2019 saw Rickie Fowler, wear some brighter pastels, interesting patterns, and a tasteful use of his signature orange on Sundays. The X Collection is something new.

Golfers are using Hole19 not only to help them plan & track their rounds using GPS on their mobile devices or wearable smartwatches but also to review their key stats.

Tsillan Cellars Because it’s one of the oldest, largest vineyards in the region, Tsillan simply has a lot to offer as a place for tourists and as a place for locals to convene.

• Fairway wood, either 3 wood or 5 wood six shots off the ground, six off the tee (10 balls) • Driver: 12 swings • Move back to the irons, odd clubs 9,7,5 eight shots each (24 balls) • Cool down with soft half sand wedge (10 balls)

Now, I will admit that the driver has a lot of appeal, but let us be real. The driver has far less impact on a good round of golf than we give it credit for.

The Great 48 Chelan, Washington is another amazingl high desert destination that offers the perfect reprieve for golfers and their families.

Most players would benefit more from working on their 150yd and in game. Therefore, my recommendation for today is to learn to practice in a fashion that works your entire game.

• Start with soft swing half sand wedges (10 balls) facebook.com/ nwgolf

• After the bucket try to spend 15 minutes on the putting green Make sure you select a target for each shot, don’t just swing away. If you practice in this fashion, your entire game will get a work out and you will be onto lower scores. Good luck!

For your next range session, I would suggest purchasing a large bucket (approx 100 balls) and work your way through the bucket like this:

with even number clubs pw, 8, 6, 4 eight shots for each club (32 balls)
