K.J. Choi

K.J Choi worked for a full day today on everything from short putting to driver. We mainly worked on technique with his full swing, concentrating mainly on a big muscle take away and then setting the club on plane. K.J has always had a tendacy to start his back swing with his hands and the club would set on to flat a plane. In the photo K.J is working on his speed putting. In this drill, called the ladder drill he has to hit 3 putts in a putter length semi circle behind the hole to move up the ladder. If he leaves one short or outside the zone, he goes back down the ladder ( just like the board game Snakes and Ladders). There are 4 steps to the ladder at 5,7,9 and 11 yards. We complete this drill from up hill, down hill, left to right and right to left. This might take up to an hour some days. The result is always great touch with more long putts made and very few 3 putts from poor speed.
