Open Face Stair Steps

10-20 min Solo Alignment Sticks, Wedge
Setup
Mark three carry ‘steps’ on the green at short, mid, and long distances.
Drill Instructions
Keep ball position and stance consistent while increasing face openness for higher, shorter carries and squaring for longer carries. Hit 3 balls to each step in rotation, maintaining identical tempo and entry point. Note which openness hits each step most consistently.
Goal
2/3 to each step over three rotations (6/9 total).
Make It Easier
Use larger step zones.
Coach Tip
More open equals more bounce and less dig—trust it to slide.
Make It Harder
Add a fourth step and reduce zone sizes.
Avoid
Moving the ball position while adjusting face; keep one variable at a time.
