The Distance Control Drill

Chuck Cook suggests a simple yet effective drill to improve distance control in chip shots. Here’s how it works:

1. Place a Wet Towel: Start by placing a wet towel onto the green, about one step onto the grain. This will create a target area for your chip shots.
2. Land the Ball on the Towel: Your goal is to practice landing your ball on the towel and making it finish within one club length of the hole. This will help you develop a better understanding of the trajectory needed to control the distance of your chip shots.
