Brooks, what does your pre-round range warm-up look like?
It’s really simple… always start with putting, range, then short game.
What’s the goal of your putting warm-up?
Just get a sense of the speed. It’s way simpler than you all think. Make sure the speed’s right and everything’s good and from there go to the course.
Once you get to the range, how do you go through your bag?
I know I always want to finish with driver when it’s 25 minutes before I go tee off. That’s the only thing I’m particular about. Other than that, I just work my way up. I hit the same clubs every time: sand wedge, 9-iron, 7-iron, 5-iron, 3-iron, driver.
Are you trying to hit specific shots for the course you’re playing or warm up the body?
