Masking Tape Low-Point Control Line Drill

Sets: 3Hits: 10 hitsAttempts: 12 attRest: 1 minEst. duration: 4 min 35 sec

Place a straight strip of painters/masking tape across the hitting mat directly behind the ball. Strike wedge or iron shots aiming to graze only the leading edge of the tape and have the bottom of the swing arc and mat impact occur cleanly in front of the line.

Key points

  • Place a strip of masking tape perpendicular to the target line on the mat
  • Set the golf ball directly in front of the leading edge of the tape
  • Strike down and through so the club makes contact with the ball first and the mat divot begins after the tape line
  • Immediate tactile and visual feedback: a chunk or fat strike tears or dislodges the tape

Common mistakes

Hitting behind the line and tearing the tape off the mat (fat/chunk), or lifting up and picking the ball cleanly with zero turf contact (thin).

Two-Tee Center-Face Gate Drill

Sets: 3Hits: 10 hitsAttempts: 12 attRest: 1 minEst. duration: 3 min 45 sec

Insert two tees into the mat turf just wider than the clubhead—one outside the toe and one inside the heel—mimicking Tiger Woods' putting gate drill with full irons. Execute swings without clipping either tee to force sweet-spot contact.

Key points

  • Insert two tees into the mat spaced just wide enough for the clubhead to pass through cleanly at address
  • Angle the heel tee away slightly so the hosel/shaft clears on proper delivery
  • Swing through the gate to compress the golf ball directly off the center sweet spot
  • Striking the heel tee indicates an out-to-in heel strike or hosel miss; striking the toe tee reveals a reaching toe strike

Common mistakes

Setting the tees too narrow and catching the shaft/hosel, or swinging with an over-the-top path that clobbers the outside tee.

Vertical Net Tape Start-Line Precision Drill

Sets: 3Hits: 10 hitsAttempts: 12 attRest: 1 minEst. duration: 2 min 21 sec

Run a vertical strip of tape down the face of the indoor hitting net aligned directly with the ball position. Hit full shots and observe whether the ball strikes directly on the tape line, left (pull/draw launch), or right (push/fade launch) to calibrate launch direction and face angle.

Key points

  • Apply a vertical line of tape down the center of the hitting net in direct line with the ball address position
  • Align your body and clubface toward the vertical tape target line
  • Hit shots observing initial ball impact on the net to verify face angle control at impact
  • Practice intentionally starting balls left or right of the line to master shot shaping (draws and fades)

Common mistakes

Focusing only on swing mechanics while ignoring ball departure direction, or misaligning the tape with the ball on the mat.
