Range Chat – The Toughest Step Toward Better Golf Practice

Golf is full of promises. 

One tip. 

One drill. 

One swing thought that’s meant to fix everything. 

Yet most golfers keep practising and don’t actually get much better. 

The problem isn’t effort. 

It’s focus. 

You only get better when you practise one thing at a time. 

Most golfers arrive at the range and try to fix everything in one session. 

Ball striking. 

Direction. 

Distance. 

Tempo. 

That’s not practice — that’s chaos. 

Before you can focus, you need to choose. 

Pick the one issue costing you the most shots right now. 

Most golfers abandon focus the moment a bad shot appears. 

They chase the miss and lose the session. 

Focused practice feels uncomfortable. 

That’s normal. 

Discomfort means change. 

Nobody’s watching you. 

And even if they were, it wouldn’t matter. 

Instead of “I have to fix this,” think: 

“I’m choosing to work on this.” 

Not everything matters today. 

Fix the biggest leak first. 

Final Word: 

Better practice comes from doing less, on purpose.
