Want a quick and easy way to make your game better and drop strokes? It's simple when it comes to your practice time. 99.9% of people buy a large bucket and spend an hour on the range aimlessly hitting ball after ball, rapid fire. Here's a way to practice so that you are always improving:

If you spend 1hr practicing at the range, your breakdown should be this:

30min hitting balls on the range
15min chipping/pitching
15min putting

The more time you spend on your short game, the easier it is to drop strokes. Putting makes up 43% of your total score on average, so that is the easiest way to improve your score.

When you are on the range hitting balls, practice with a purpose. Don't stand up there and rapid fire balls, do your normal pre shot routine for every ball as if you were on the course. Pick a target for every shot, so you have something to concentrate on. Instead of thinking "I just want to hit it straight" pick a target in the distance somewhere and try to hit it to that target. Some people don't pick targets and then think a shot they hit is good, when in reality it could be 10-20 yards away from where they were actually aimed.

If you really want help, I can try to help you as much as I can without having seen your swing. If you want drills for your short game, let me know.
