One hundred and six drills, each one fixing a named fault, each one telling you on the spot whether the rep was any good.
There is no shortage of drills. There is a shortage of drills that have been checked against a standard, and a bigger shortage of any way to tell whether the one you just ran did anything. Plenty of them train a motion that never shows up on the course, and some of them quietly reinforce the fault you are trying to remove.
Every drill in this library came from a real source. The impact-bag work behind mid-century ball striking. The connected-triangle short game framework behind several major champions. The nine-shot drill that taught a generation of Tour players nine ways to deliver an iron. Forty years of teaching that has already been tested on good players.
The six-criteria standard
Pedigree was not enough on its own. Every drill in the book had to clear all six of these before it earned a page.
- Targets a specific faultOne diagnosable problem, not a vague area.
- Built-in feedbackYou know during the rep whether you did it right.
- Transfers to the courseThe trained motion survives the first tee.
- Creates no new faultIt will not trade your slice for a hook.
- Runs soloNo coach and no partner required.
- No expensive gearWhat is in your bag, or an aid under $30.
What is inside
- Putting, 31 drills — short putts, mid-range, lag, speed control, breaking putts and pressure
- Short game, 21 drills — chipping, pitching, bunkers, flops and short-sided escapes

- Course management, 17 drills — pre-shot routine, decision making and scoring strategy, which lower scores without touching your swing
- The Symptom Index — 25 common faults, each mapped to its likely cause and the drills that address it
The Symptom Index
You usually know the symptom rather than the cause. Putts finishing short. Blocked tee shots when it matters. Chips coming out heavy off a tight lie. The index takes 25 faults like those, names the likely cause of each, and points at the drills that fix it, which turns 132 pages into a short lookup on the way to the range.
How you know a drill worked
Each page carries a line telling you what success looks like while you are doing it, a rep count, the mistake most people make, and an easier and a harder version so the drill still fits you in three months. The Pressure 3-Footer asks for ten makes in a row with a real consequence and a reset to zero on any miss. Nobody has to tell you whether you managed it.
Free drills exist. This is not that.
Individual drills are everywhere, and some of them are good. What takes the time is working out which ones are worth running, which one matches the fault you actually have, and how to tell whether it is working. That sorting is the part that has already been done here, and it is why the book is organized by fault rather than by whichever drill looked interesting.
What this book does not do
It fixes faults and it does not tell you which fault is costing you most. Working hard on your third-biggest problem is how a season goes by without much changing. Every drill here already names the practice game that measures it, so the other half of the loop is built and waiting.

Questions
I already know a lot of drills.
Most golfers do. The Symptom Index and the Fixes line on every page are there for choosing between them, which is the harder problem.
Do I need a coach or a training aid?
No. Running solo was one of the six criteria, as was needing nothing beyond your bag or an aid costing under $30.
I only practice once a week.
Then picking the right drill matters more, not less.
