FAQ

Common questions about Tempo & Distance drills

How do I get more consistent distance with my irons?

Tempo and distance drills like 3-Ball Tempo Test, Swing Output Ladder, and Distance Windows train repeatable tempo and carry distance. Score each attempt against par so you're measuring improvement, not just hitting balls. Consistent tempo is the foundation of consistent distance — both skills improve together.

What are good range drills for tempo and rhythm?

Ladder drills (swing 50%, 75%, 100%) and tempo challenges with a pause or a fixed number of balls. TeeBetter's tempo and distance challenges give you a par to beat and a clear scoring method so every session has a goal and a measurable result.
