Just want to share a picture of something that helped me understand the angle that I need to have on the backswing on my right elbow.

I used paper box, gorilla tape and a smartphone arm band. It's not perfect and after a couple of practice swings was already loosing its format, but I was able to get the concept and able to understand the position of the right elbow. There is a product out there that you can buy, but I thought for the usage I could build something real quick.

Cool.

Yeah @iacas made one out of tubing or something like that. You can slide your right arm in and it fits around the middle of arm.

It´s great !! however I think a lot about this position, and sometimes I´m not sure if it´s crucial for a good swing. Some people don´t keep the 90º angle of the right arm and they still strike good. I feel that when I try to keep my angle, I don´t turn my torso enough. What I mean is that there are other factors much more important than this for a good swing. . . IMO

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
