For a recovery shot, give yourself one ball, one target, and a score. Before the hero gap tempts you, if the shot would cost you on the course, it should cost you in the drill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Putting the feel on record\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>FocusGolf can make recovery practice less random. Using a Wear OS, Apple Watch, or Garmin watch, you can track shots and review swing metrics without adding sensors to the club. When you find a compact motion that gets the ball back in play, saving it in your session history or best-shot highlights makes it easier to repeat under pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Try the up-and-down test\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>When the ball is in trouble, drop five balls in five different awkward spots. Finish each recovery as a mini-hole. When the ball is in trouble, give yourself two points for an up-and-down, one for a safe bogey position, and zero for staying in trouble. Keep that escape score for several practice sessions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Breathe, pick, swing\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>When the ball is in trouble, under pressure, simplify the routine: breathe, pick the landing spot, make the swing.
