Go to the range and get into a square stance with your shoulders and feet aligned to target. Now move into an exagerated closed stance by moving your right leg behind you one foot and hit balls. This will give you an inside feeling. Now put your right foot back to square and try to keep the feeling of that drill. Use clubs to help with alignment with both your feet and target line. Check your shoulders by putting a shaft across your chest. Good luck.

Find a mirror and an intermediate target in front of it. Attempt to line up square to the intermediate target without looking at the mirror. Check the mirror to see that you are square. Repeat until correct.

Go out to a random field and pick a target. Line yourself up and then drop a golf club in front/back of your shoes. Walk away and see whether the club is parallel to the target. If not repeat until correct.

Find a wide hallway and pick a target. Line yourself up and ensure that your body is parallel to the wall. If not repeat until correct.

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
