Practice Range Divot Patterns

What is the proper way to take divots at the practice range? The answer depends on the type of grass used and the maintenance practices employed. At Angeles National Golf Club, we request that divots be taken from front to back, where your next shot is played from the beginning of your previous divot.

Proper divot patterns increase the usable hitting area, promote quicker turf healing time, and allow for an efficient use of space.
