Spin Control Hop-Stop

10-20 min Solo Range Balls, Targets, Launch Monitor (optional)

Setup

Choose a 40–60 yard target with a visible landing area. If available, set up a launch monitor to track spin and launch.

Drill Instructions

Hit 10 balls focusing on clean, slightly descending strike with moderate shaft lean. Land them on the same spot and note first bounce and rollout. Adjust ball position and face openness to dial hop-and-stop behavior.

Goal

Achieve 6/10 shots with first hop inside a 3-yard zone and stop within 5 yards of landing.

Make It Easier

Move to 30–40 yards and use a larger landing zone.

Coach Tip

A low launch with high friction (clean grooves, dry ball) creates the check—prep your equipment.

Make It Harder

Require 8/10 within zone and limit rollout to 3 yards.

Avoid

Overly steep attack that kills friction or pop-ups from adding loft at impact.
