Proximity to the Hole
- Use 1 ball
- Score +1 point for each chip inside 3 feet. Score -1 for each chip outside of 3 feet
- Have a positive score (+1) at the end of 9 chips at each level
- Increase your positive score at each level to: +3, +5, +7, +9!
Level I : Chip 9 times from 5-10 yards to a hole from fairway height lies to a relatively flat target
Level II: Repeat Level I and increase severity by adding slopes (uphill/sidehill/downhill)
Level III: Repeat Level II and increase severity by dropping the ball and alternating lies (fairway/rough)
Level IV: Repeat Level I difficulty and increase variety of distances from different holes
Level V: Repeat Level II difficulty and increase variety of distances from different holes
Level VI: Repeat Level III difficulty and increase variety of distances from different holes
Level VII: Repeat Level I-Level VI goal and decrease your proximity to hole to 2 feet
You get the idea. Start easy and gain confidence with your proximity to the hole and increase the level of difficulty and score.
I would recommend a portion of this game at each practice session. As your Proximity to the Hole score increases, your Tournament Scores will decrease!
You will benefit by gaining focus and teaching yourself to read slopes, handle pressure and build your Library of Confidence!
And call me when you get to Level VII with a score of +9! I want to invest in your future!
