2024 PGA Teacher of the Year Joe Hallett shares why smarter, focused practice leads to real improvement.

Many golfers fall into the trap of mindlessly hitting ball after ball at the range. Instead, Joe recommends limiting yourself to 15 balls over 30 minutes. The goal is to approach every shot with intent—choose your club, pick a target, and visualize the shot before swinging.

This method, inspired by Fred Shoemaker and others, helps you build better habits and improve faster by prioritizing quality over quantity.
