One of the most important parts of getting the most out of your practice is setting up a station that’s going to allow you to get more effectiveness from your range session.
Using alignment rods, set up a target line rod on the ground, a start-line rod about 10 feet in front of you and a swing plane rod stuck in the ground at the same angle as your club at address.
Note: you want your swing plane rod to be a little behind you so that when practicing your takeaway, the ferrule of the club — where the shaft and head come together — is hitting the rod.
These rods will give you great visual feedback, so that instead of just beating balls, you can accomplish something with your practice session.
