Want to improve your game this summer, but you’re stuck in the office fielding phone calls and returning e-mails? There’s a fix for that.
In the latest and final episode of Cobra Golf’s Emergency Nine, Drew Stoltz, co-host of GOLF’s Subpar Podcast, broke down two drills you can do from the office to improve your game.
The first drill is a backswing drill you can do in your office doorway.
“Find the end of the doorway,” Stolz says. “Go about a foot out, put your trail foot about a foot away. Set up normal like you are setting into a shot. Toes in line with the edge of the wall. Once you get that, we’re working on backswing. As I go back, my hands stay in by the clubhead stays out. If I do it properly, the club is going to contact the wall somwhere [by the middle] of the club. You get set up. Hands in, clubhead out — that’s going to get you in a really good position in your backswing.”

The next drill is for your short game. All you need is a coin and a wedge.
“Put the coin on the ground. The goal of this drill is to help us find the bottom in our chipping,” Stoltz says. “I’m going to set up for a normal chip. This is going to give me a lot of feedback, because if I have too much lean or too much forward press, I’m going to hit this quarter and it’s going to go forward. We don’t want that. On the other side of that, if I get back here and I add too much loft and I bottom out before the coin, I’m going to bounce over it and the coin is not going to move anywhere.
“What I want to do is have the bounce of this club land right on top of this quarter, and I can do that over and over, and it should just pop up in the air a little bit. We don’t want it going forward. Once we have this, I know that I have found the bottom consistently.”
