One-Rake Up-and-Down

20+ min Partner Wedge, Rake, Golf Balls

Setup

Choose one greenside bunker and a nearby pin. One player hits while the other rakes; switch roles each rep.

Drill Instructions

Each player hits one bunker shot and must finish the hole out before switching. Score 1 point for up-and-downs, 0 for two putts, -1 for three putts. First to 7 points wins.

Goal

50% up-and-downs or better to win consistently.

Make It Easier

Give a gimme circle of 4 feet.

Coach Tip

Proximity is king—aim for a safe, repeatable splash that leaves an uphill putt.

Make It Harder

Tighten gimme to 2 feet and add buried lies.

Avoid

Getting cute with impossible pins; play to your leave.
