Setup & execution

On the range, mark a fairway corridor 40 yd wide at least 150 yd away. Hit 15 tee shots with your driver and record every result. This corridor mirrors the width of a typical tree-lined parkland fairway. A pattern of consecutive misses on the same side is diagnostic information, not bad luck — commit the direction to memory after every shot. Between shots, step away, reset your pre-shot routine, and pick a fresh start line before stepping back in.

Goal

Land 6 or more of your 15 tee shots inside the 40-yard corridor to pass (40%). Compare your miss-left vs miss-right totals — identifying your dominant miss direction is as valuable as the fairway count.

Tour context

Experienced amateurs (HCP 11.5–18.4) typically hit 35–45% of fairways. Finding 6/15 (40%) in a 40-yard corridor aligns with the top of this band and directly translates to fewer penalty situations on the course.
