Pick a branch, range sign, net line, or imagined window and learn how setup, club, and speed change the flight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Three drills that work\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Col>\n\u003Cli>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>The window drill\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>\nPick a target and imagine a waist-high window 10 to 15 yards in front of you. Hit 10 balls trying to start each one through that window with a mid-iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>The three-club ladder\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>\nFrom the same distance, hit low shots with 5-iron, 7-iron, and 9-iron. Notice how carry and roll change. This teaches you which club creates the right release.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>The finish-freeze drill\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>\nHit punch shots and hold the finish for three seconds. The club should finish lower, your chest should face the target, and your weight should be on the lead foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Fol>\n\u003Ch3>Putting it in focus\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Low-shot practice is all about matching feel to flight. FocusGolf records swings from a Wear OS, Apple Watch, or Garmin watch, without adding sensors, and lets you study tempo, speed, consistency, transition, motion data, and swing video afterward. Compare the punch shots that stayed under the wind with the ones that ballooned, then keep the compact finish that actually controlled the ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Track the right things\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Don’t judge only by the prettiest shot.
