Abstract:
1. A method of training for improving a user's play of a golf short game, the method comprising, in combination, the steps of: providing first and second trajectory targets such that the first trajectory target is located at a first height and the second trajectory target is located at a second height that is higher than the first height, wherein the first trajectory target has a first visual attribute and the second trajectory target has a second visual attribute different from the first visual attribute; hitting a first golf shot to attempt to hit a golf ball into the first trajectory target at the first height, whereby the first visual attribute is associated by the user with a first trajectory; hitting a second golf shot to attempt to hit a golf ball into the second trajectory target at the second height, whereby the second visual attribute is associated by the user with a second trajectory; providing first and second distance targets on a ground surface, wherein the first distance target has the first visual attribute and the second target has the second visual attribute; hitting a third golf shot to attempt to hit a golf ball into the first distance target using the first trajectory, wherein the first trajectory target is not in the path of the third golf shot; and hitting a fourth golf shot to attempt to hit a golf ball into the second distance target using the second trajectory, wherein the second trajectory target is not in the path of the fourth golf shot.
