How to Practice Golf at Home (No Range Required)

You don't need a golf course or range to improve. 60% of scoring is putting and short game—both trainable at home.

Home Practice Setup

Putting (Indoors or Outdoors)

• Minimum: Putter, golf balls, flat floor/carpet
• Drills: Gate Drill, Twenty Makes, Six-Foot Make Rate
• Time: 15-20 minutes per session
• Improvement: 2-3 fewer putts per round in 4 weeks

Chipping (Backyard)

• Setup: Place target 15-30 feet away
• Drills: Target Circle, Chip to Make Putt (chip indoors, putt on carpet)
• Practice: 30 minutes, 2x per week
• Result: Up-and-down % improvement within 2 weeks

Short Game Net (Optional)

• Cost: £0-60
• Benefit: Practice chipping/pitching without leaving property
• ROI: One better chip per round pays for it in a month
