    Red face Driving range games...

    Plugging away at the driving range can get boring, and can also be non-productive if you don't simulate the pressure of being on the course.

    Perhaps we can start a thread of good games that make practice more productive and fun...

    I'll start...

    1) Backup

    With any club in the bag, try to hit the same club a bit shorter each time. eg, hit a 50yd wedge, then 40yds, then 30 yds etc. This is great for feel with the longer clubs. Can you hit your driver 195yds, 175, 150...?

    2) Call Shot

    With a partner, each call the next shot for the other. One chance to pull it off. Example could be... start at the 150yd marker and fade it 15yds.

    I like the game of "Sink it in the can or hit the sign for a free pizza game"

    Do they still have that at Double Deck?

    er... interesting game....

    Two questions....

    - how many pizzas have you won...?
    - how many strokes did it shave off your game from practicing it?

    1 pizza won (a few years back) - The pizza place said "Cheese and sauce only - no toppings"

    Oh well, it was fun to have the very loud bell go off
