practice effectively

[bcoak]

Brian,
2 young kids and a fulltime job makes finding time to practice hard. When I do get the chance I want it to be as useful as possible. Let's say I have an hour, what would be the best way to get some useful practice in all areas, Driver, Irons, short game, and putting.

Start with a 7 or 8 iron, full motion, maybe 60% speed, trying to 'hole it out' at a target.

Go to a 4 or 5 iron and try for the same speed a couple of times but now add MORE Pivot from the top.

Hit some drivers at THAT speed and a couple really hard.

Hit some 50 yard pitches with the 7 or 8 and then hit distance wedges.
