Practice Range?

  Is there a practice range hidden somewhere? I know I'd like to hit a few dozen shots from various clubs in a row to get a sense of distance and spin. Playing a round straight through doesn't serve that purpose. -Greensinreg

  Goto stroke play, pick a course, make sure you pick practice in game mode, then just keep using a mulligan till you get the info you need.

  Find a hole that you like and use the practice mode. I use #1 on Kiawah. In practice you can use the mulligan feature to hit the same shot over and over. Just remember that if you use a purchased ball, every stoke will take from the ball's life, and this includes putts. On the greens in practice mode you can also view putting lines to give you an opportunity to learn breaks and speeds. I use a free ball so that I don't have to reach into my pocket to pay for these practice sessions.

  And mulligans I believe take two hits off a ball's life.  -Keith

  Like HackWilson said, Kiawah #1 you can get 0-3 mph winds and is good to map clubs. I also set it up from the red tees in practice mode to practice my wedges. Almost all your approach shots are wedges. Mulligans are a help figuring out shots

  Go to "scotthope's" profile page and click on ONE HOLE TEE OPTION follow the directions and play any single hole you want at your tier or whatever tier you choose the wind speed and green speed. Just when you go back for another tip or 2 remember what ball he's using. He does a lot for us, WGT'ers and doesn't ask anything in return. Siders Best
