The range is a lie - Here's how you Improve Faster With Less Practice
🔥 If you’re sick of grinding buckets and still struggling, my 30-Day Challenge will change your swing faster than the last 5 years combined: https://www.facefirstgolf.com/start-t... Most golfers think the driving range is where improvement happens. It’s not. It’s where you rehearse frustration. Hit one. Hate it. Try something new. Hit the next one. Hate that too. Now you’re juggling 17 swing thoughts and leaving MORE confused than when you showed up. That’s not practice. That’s reaction. In this lesson, Craig Jones shows you the one thing that actually matters — the Power Position. The whip. The snap. The moment the toe passes the heel, the face squares up, and the clubhead finally delivers speed and compression. Here’s the twist most golfers miss… You don’t need more lag. You already have too much — just on the wrong side (hello chicken wing). Then Craig walks you through a simple 6-pillar progression you can train at home into a net — short, focused sessions that actually build skill instead of beating balls for hours. Practice less. Improve faster. Finally hit it solid. ⏱️ Timestamps: range waste of time transcript 0:00 – Why the driving range keeps golfers stuck 0:29 – “Try this, try that” range chaos 0:53 – Why 1–2 hour sessions don’t build skill 1:09 – The one position that actually matters 1:43 – The Power Position explained 2:19 – Lag myth + chicken wing problem 2:43 – The whip/snap that creates speed 3:18 – How this squares the face and adds compression 3:46 – Why this is the source of effortless power 4:14 – Range practice vs real practice 5:02 – Why short, frequent sessions work better 6:36 – The 6 Pillars overview 7:02 – Pillar 1: Strong (closed) grip 8:54 – Pillar 2: Closed stance / trail foot back 11:14 – Pillar 3: Ball back for compression 12:20 – Pillar 4: Narrow stance before wide 13:37 – Pillar 5: Small swings before big (L-to-L) 14:32 – Pillar 6: Slow swings before fast 15:00 – How to practice into a net at home 17:25 – Adding speed + length gradually 18:17 – Why range is for trust, not skill building 18:45 – How short daily reps rebuild your swing What You’ll Learn: • Why beating balls doesn’t build skill • The one “Power Position” that creates effortless speed • Why most golfers actually have too much lag • How chicken wing kills compression • How toe-past-heel squares the face naturally • The 6 pillars for smarter practice • How to improve faster with 5–10 minutes a day at home
