Putting is ideal for family practice sessions because:

• It’s accessible for all ages and skill levels.

• No expensive equipment or full courses are needed—just a small putting mat or an open area at home.

• Improvements in putting directly translate to lower scores and more enjoyable rounds for everyone.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: The app focuses entirely on putting, providing the tools to analyze key metrics like accuracy, speed, and swing path. It’s the perfect companion for putting practice.

These creative drills make practice fun while helping everyone refine their skills:

1. Accuracy Targets Drill

Place small objects (cups, cones, or toys) around the green or on a putting mat. Assign point values for each target based on difficulty. Kids love the challenge, and adults can focus on precision.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: Track accuracy metrics to see who’s improving over time and use the app’s analytics to refine techniques.

2. Putt Bowling

Set up bowling pins (plastic bottles or small toys) in a triangle. Each family member takes turns putting to knock them down. Score points for every pin hit.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: Analyze the ball's speed and path to develop a consistent, controlled stroke.

3. Distance Challenge Drill

Set markers at increasing distances (3, 6, and 9 feet). Each player takes turns putting to each marker, earning points for stopping the ball within a defined zone.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: Use the app’s analytics to see how well players control their speed and distance, and compare progress over time.

4. Round the Clock Drill

Arrange balls in a circle around the hole like a clock. Take turns putting from each “hour,” counting how many are made.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: Compare family members’ putting data to create friendly rivalries and celebrate personal bests.

Here’s how to set up a fun family putting competition that works for all skill levels:

• Choose a Theme: Make it a “Mini-Masters” tournament, complete with fun prizes for the winner.

• Design a Course: Use a backyard, putting mat, or open room to create a series of putting challenges.

• Set Scoring Rules: Points for accuracy, longest putt made, or consistency across multiple rounds.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: Although the app doesn’t record scores, its data-driven insights allow each family member to see progress in key areas, such as reducing missed putts or improving swing path consistency.

Practicing as a family has benefits that go far beyond the green:

• Bonding Time: Shared experiences bring families closer.

• Lifelong Skills: Golf teaches patience, discipline, and focus.

• Healthy Competition: A little rivalry fosters growth and keeps everyone motivated.

How Go Birdie Go Helps: The app enables family members to compare their analytics, such as putting accuracy and improvement trends, providing a shared sense of achievement.
