Finished phase one using plastic wiffle balls in my back yard which was.

Finished phase one using plastic wiffle balls in my back yard which was convenient not having to do all the reps at a driving range. Wondering whether or not plastic wiffle balls are OK to use in phase 2. Obviously, real balls will be necessary for phase 3 and phase 4, but am wondering whether plastic wiffle balls are OK for all or part of phase 2.

Hello Michael. You can certainly start with the whiffle balls in the back yard on with Phase 2. Ideally, when you start moving over to the range and real balls I would do some Phase 2 reps to make sure distance/flight are behaving.
Hi I was able to complete Phase 1 with real balls in the back garden. But Phase 2 needs much more space. I found that foam balls and air balls don’t really work but today I had some luck with ‘30% balls’ which look like a golf ball and fly reasonably well (but just go 30% of the distance of a real ball) so I will certainly use them for some Phase 2 reps as well as using our club practice area. Over here in the UK 6 of these balls cost about £4.99.
