Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or just picking up the game, the driving range is often the starting point of any golfer’s journey. It’s a safe haven to experiment, make mistakes, try out new shots, and simply enjoy hitting golf balls without the association of a scorecard. Practicing at the range is crucial for enhancing your game and preparing for future challenges.
The driving range serves a dual purpose in the world of golf. On one hand, it’s a practice ground for refining skills and techniques. On the other, it’s a warm-up space before competition, preparing you mentally and physically for the round ahead. This distinction reflects two opposing mental approaches to the same place.
Understanding these approaches is crucial, as the habits we form during practice sessions at the range subconsciously set the foundation for our performance during competition. Just as in the corporate world, where daily routines and habits shape long-term success, the time and effort you invest at the driving range directly influence your overall performance and development as a golfer.
