It’s raining. It’s cold. Or maybe you don’t have time to drive to the course to play or practice? What is a golfer to do? If you’ve got 10 minutes spare, practice golf at home! Below are 101 ways to practice at home. Pick one of them. Each drill only takes 10 minutes or less!
The good news is that these drills work on all key aspects of the game from the mind game to putting. Nothing is left to chance!
Nothing is left to chance because golf is a challenge!
It’s this great challenge that lures us to the links. If it was easy, you wouldn’t bother. But you don’t want to make golf any more challenging than it already is. That would be foolish and self-destructive. But that’s what you’re doing if you don’t practice from home.
If you’re not practicing at home, you’re almost certainly playing below your potential.
Playing below your potential isn’t fun!
Sir Nick Faldo said it best…
“When you are playing great, it’s wonderful. Because you and your partner just want to go out and go (rubbing hands together) ‘Who we got?’ and off you go. But when you’re playing badly, or your trust is dented, or your self-belief is gone, it’s the worst (freaking) week in the world!” – Nick Faldo
If you’re not practicing at home, your game will limp along, and you’ll never unleash your true golfing potential.
And that’s sad!
There’s nothing worse than wasted potential.

Do my 10-minute challenge
Give yourself one hour of at-home practice per week. Randomly pick one of the drills, then focus 100% on that drill for 10 minutes. Then stop! Only do 10 minutes at a time. If you do much more than that, you run the risk of burnout.
Don’t believe me that 10 minutes of practice can be so effective?
Jack Nicklaus always did short interval practice all his career. Think about that. The greatest player of all-time only did short practice sessions, and wouldn’t touch a long practice session with a 10-foot barge pole!
If you one hour of short 10-minute practice intervals at home per week for 10 weeks, I promise your game will improve.
So, what are you waiting for?
Pick a drill from below, and focus on it for 10 minutes!
