Corridor landing drill for short-shot control
Craig Hanson lays out a short-game landing drill using six golf clubs to form five separate corridors, with the golf balls about five meters/yards back. In the first, easier version you try to land the ball inside the first corridor; once you land in it you progress to the second, third, fourth, and fifth corridors, even if it takes five balls, then work your way back through them. He says it may look easy but is very tricky, and is good for visual control on short shots.
