Coach Jason Glass has a great warm up routine that you can find on Youtube. Takes less than 10 minutes and I usually add some calf stretches and i'm ready to go.

Thanks! This is actually helpful because i normally do not have time to hit the balls at the range before the early morning tee off

I still carry a Stretch pole in my bag. It adjusts to different heights. I swing it upside down from both sides as a warmup. Full exercises are printed on the pole. After an long drive to the course, nothing works better or faster for me.

OMG! I miss my Stretch Pole! Had one 10 years ago...don't know what happened to it. Great device. May need to get another one if they still sell them!

I play at a muni with a practice green but no driving range. I don't have the luxury of hitting a few balls before i go out and play. That said, I'll practice a few putts from 6-10ft, laying two irons down perpendicular to the hole, mostly to work on getting the stroke to go straight back and through.

20 minutes or so before i tee off, i'll stretch my legs,torso and lower back. I'll take a 5 iron put it against my lower back, hook my elbows around the shaft and turn to the left and then the right, holding the stretch for 30 seconds.

The last thing I do is take 2 clubs and take some practice swings.

I find stretching is getting more and more important the older I get. My warm up starts at home before leaving for the course and includes a routine that takes about 10-12 minutes. I try to repeat as much of the routine as I can when I arrive at the course when the drive is longer that 30-minutes. When I'm at the course, I hit about 30-balls with wedge, 7-iron, hybrid and driver followed by some chipping and putting.

This is a bit off topic, but I've been reading recently about how stretching impacts your golf swing including a few cool videos about the Titleist Performance Institute. I'm also reading a book about the flexible golf swing that didn't interest me when I was younger, but after incorporating a few stretching routines into my weekly workouts it's looking like it could help my swing. I wish I had started exploring this years ago.

Some research indicates that dynamic stretching is more effective than static (holding a stretch). I've been trying this, and it has been effective in helping me feel "loose" on the first tee. You can find some good information on YouTube from Genevieve Ling and Me and My Golf, among others.

Here is the routine I, an almost 50 year old, use.
* Two sets of jumping jacks
* Two sets of air squats
* Two sets of incline push-ups against the back of a bench
* Stretching shoulders and back with a resistance band
* Front-to-back and side-to-side leg swings
* Loosen up ankles and wrists
* Orange Whip
* Hit a small bucket of balls, depending on time, working up from wedges to driver and finishing with some pitches and the club I'll use of the first tee
* Chip and putt until starter calls

I know I look a little goofy doing the calisthenics, but I feel pretty good when I get to the first tee. I'll shorten or extend the range session depending on time, but the warm-up part I always do.

Admire you ambition, but as I approach 75, with arthritic hips and back, I would be dead before I got to the first tee with your regiment. Still doing the nine iron, added a six iron, driver, then a wedge, and a few puts. It helps and now that I am almost back into form and shooting in the low 80s, I am happy and not in so much pain. Laying my second shot two feet from the hole on #15, par five and making that eagle made my day, because I just could not get out of the three putt rut. Seven three putts. Do not think they rolled the greens today. No worries.

I just turned 43 but for the last 2 years I saw my dad struggle with back pain. That was my que to take my body a little more serious. I was pretty fit to begin with but since seeing my dad, who is now better, struggle I began running more and more importantly doing yoga. Before I get to the course, I do about 10-15 minutes of yoga focusing on my core, and back. After that I use the SKLZ pwoer angle to slowly swing and stretch the frame.

Once at the course, a few more back, hamstrin and glute stretches. Then I take 2 clubs, do some windmilles forward and backward with each arm, them some swings both right and left. I play right handing but workign my left side helps promote better balance. I generalyl hit about 40-50 balls, most are short irons, high, low, left to right, right to left. I hit maybe 5 drivers, 5 fairway metals. May last 5 balls are back to a SW where I try to hit very specific distances 75, 90, 105 yards to get feel in my tempo and hands.

My short walk to the course gets the engine started. Orange Whip helps stretch arms, back and legs and to get a swing tempo. Then rolling a few putts to get the tempo smooth and flowing. Usually good to go by hole #4, but often times the damage to the card has been done!

I always get to the course at least an hour before my tee time. I like to chip for a good 20 minutes. I find this is super helpful in slowly getting my body warm. In addition, with small half swings it helps me get my timing down. I'll then putt for another 10-20 minutes before hitting the range.

I like to not work on my swing on the range and just "get warm". Can usually figure out what I'm working with that day in about 20 swings or so.

So, after getting back into the game after a 3 year hiatus due to hip issues (got it replaced -second hip- in April), I'm back at it! I posted earlier on my "preferred" warmup routine. As I'm 52 now, a life of playing ice hockey and having two hip replacements, aches and paints are just a sign I'm still alive! With that, I will do all I can to ride a little stationary bike and do some yoga-like stretches before getting to the course. However, knowing that timing isn't always perfect and there are days when you show up to the course only to find the tee box is open! So, what I've added to my range sessions (not pre-game warmup, but this is a good place to add it), is to take the first ball of the bucket, tee it up with driver or 3 wood, and give it a go as if it was the first tee and I wasn't able to do my full warmup. Then I go about my practice session and work on whatever is on the agenda that day. After doing this a bunch of times, it's evident that for me, teeing off with a 3 wood is definitely the better way to go if I have to hit a tee box without hitting any balls. Just helps to provide a little confidence for the first tee if you can't warm up.

I am big beliver in using the Therabody mini prior to warming up as well as after the round. On the app they give you golf specific areas to use the device on. Def recommend

I switched from a "vacation golfer" to a more "regular golfer" a bit over a year ago and as part of that process I added a focus on stretching and flexibility. I did some research and came up with a regular (2-3 times weekly) stretching routine that I also make sure I do from home before heading to the course. The drive to the course can sometimes be a hour so I do a brief version of the stretches in the parking lot when I arrive. My 'warm-up' always includes a small bucket ending with the tee shot on #1 and some putting. It's made a big difference in my golf experience - I highly recommend a focus on flexibility for those wanting to improve their game.

I've found some active stretching before hitting the range works well to get loose. Then at the range small bucket - work my way from wedges to driver. Then finally finish at the putting green to get dialed in.

At 43 it certainly take a little longer to get moving than before.

I try to go out and jog a couple hundred yards just to get the blood moving. From there I start some stretching mainly of the lower body and back.

I have a SKILZ power angle that I use more as a weighted club than anything. I use that to swing making longer slower swings to stretch the arms. I do swing both right and left handed. I’ve noticed the left handed swings really balance out the body. I recommend that.

Then it’s off to the course where I like to hit 40-50 balls with about 25 of those 7 iron down and lots of shorter distances to zero in feel. Balls 26 - 35 are swung with longer clubs. The last 5 or so are divided up by what I will hit on first tee and 100 yard wedge.

Head to the putting green to lag putt to get green speed. If there is a chipping area I will chip a few but if not, after the putting green, head to the first tee.
