That is a great example of how to use the range to benefit your play.

Another problem I see in most players on ranges. They grab driver out of bag on the first swing. No stretching, no warm up, not even a cursory wedge or two. Just straight to the driver. IMO, one should always start with the shorter clubs. Wether it be a wedge or 7 iron. Working up to the driver. Then at the end play a few holes as you described. This is for a standard range session.

If I am working on a specific part of my swing then I normally stick with a mid to high iron for a good 40-50 swings. Then switch it up a little to work on the swing change with other clubs. I plan on a full summer of work to make a change "stick" to my swing. I rarely do this because changing a swing is often not the solution for a low handicap player. It is usually short game or mental game work which needs to be done.

Anyway, the whole point of this soapbox session was to leave the driver in the bag until one has hit at least 30-40 balls...
