Golf at Home: Part Two

Published on 8th April 2020 in Local and Member News, Members News

Our story on golf at home the other day was very well received, so much so that we have decided to make it a series of stories.  There are a lot of ways that we can do some practice at home, and we are finding that a lot of people are sharing ways of doing it!

Under the circumstances, I am becoming a big fan of at-home practice, mostly because that’s the only kind of practice available nowadays, but an especially big fan of at-home putting practice. Mostly because my putting isn’t very good, and my wife and cat get mad at me whenever I make full swings.

Which is all to say I was very excited to see this drill come across my Instagram feed the other day. I tried it myself, and now I’m hopelessly addicted.

The idea is simple. It’s bowling, basically, except instead of bowling pins you use golf tees, and instead of a bowling ball, you use your golf ball and putter.

It’s super easy to play and super fun, here’s how.

  1. Setting up the tees is, admittedly, the most annoying part. You need 10 tees, but it only takes about half a minute when you get good at it.

  2. Set up a ball a couple of meters away to start. Obviously, the further away, the harder it is.

  3. Keep score! Use a bowling scorecard to kick it up a notch. You have two tries to knock down all the pints.

Watch the video below. Thanks to WePlayGolfAtHome for sharing, and good luck!
