Practiced putting today with an emphasis on bead.  I hit putts from about 10 feet away and focusing not only on starting on the correct line but also on distance.  Practice was indoors on a carpet.

Practiced pitching and putting on the practice green before playing 27 holes today.

Unfortunately I had a massive migraine yesterday so I'm out for this month. Probably still post here. Practicing every day has really helped me on the course. This site has given me so much help improving my golf game. Gonna get LSW soon. Even if I don't get anything out of it (which I doubt from what I've heard here) I wouldn't feel cheated considering all the free help I've gotten here.

Hour at the driving range, chipping and putting.  Worked on chipping from a few feet off the green and then 10-12 feet off.  Putting was 30' lag putts, 15-20' and then 2-6'.

6/18/15: A LOT of 8i, 9i, PW, AW, SW work... Started trying to hit all those clubs 90 yards, then 100 (the new SW I actually hit almost 100), Then the longer 4 110 (I'm at 112 average with the new 50°), The longer 3 120, I tried 130 couldn't quite get it 130 with the PW consistently... 140 with the 8 and 9 and finally 7/8 8-iron from 150... I hit some full on 8-irons... I'm gaining a little distance in my short irons... 8i: was 140-145 now closer to 150-155 9i: Like 130 now closer to 140 PW: Was around 115-120 now right at 128 AW: was 95-100 now around 112 SW: was 75-80 now 92-97 I dont swing full with my AW or SW really... It's interesting what +1/2" and 30 less grams will do for distance... And clubspeed... I digress it was more for feel shots... I will gladly take what Tiger shot today, in my tournament coming up in a week and a half... Who knows I might make the 18-hole cut... That's my goal its a tough course...

Mirror work to get A4 right (was over-swinging and then casting to A5) I'll see if this comes through correctly tomorrow when I try some drills at the range that were suggested in the latest evolvr video, so I hope to check in tomorrow with this. Very excited to fix what I messed up :-)

Just did 5 minutes mirror work. Playing the course today. Might hit some balls to get video, but that depends upon the time.

10 minutes mirror work. Yesterdays round had good ball flight with the exception of the driver. My flight was push fade with the driver. I will work with my instructor on that.

I got to remember to post stuff the day of.

Played 9 holes yesterday and did some slow swing work in the evening inside.

6/19/15: Good old spatula drill working on my turn... I'm starting to see results on the course... I'm hoping to make the 18-hole cut next Saturday...

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.
