Why this drill

What this drill fixes

Knowing exactly how far you carry a 9-iron, 7-iron, or any wedge — and being able to reproduce it — is what turns good contact into lower scores. Distance control drills train you to deliver repeatable swing output so you can commit confidently to every club choice and attack pins rather than just finding the green.

FAQ

Common questions about Distance Control drills

How do I get more consistent distance with my irons?

Consistent distance starts with consistent contact and a repeatable swing. Distance control drills like Swing Output Ladder and Distance Windows train you to deliver the same tempo and the same strike so your carry distances become predictable. Track your carries and score against par so you know your numbers.

How do I dial in my wedge distances?

Wedge distance control comes from learning your carry distances at different swing lengths — typically 50%, 75%, and 100% swings. Distance control drills with defined targets and scoring teach you to produce specific carries on demand. Practice with a par to beat so every session has a clear goal.
