      Day 15, May 19.  Today, after work (in stages), I hit two dozen practice balls at home.  Slow swings, focusing on the lifting of the arms as per my latest lesson.

      Day 70 (19 May 26) - weekly 9 hole session with my good friend this morning, however the better session was this afternoon with my grandson.  He put in for nine holes of match style play (we did stroke count as well).  The rules - I had to play from my regular tees but with irons only (no metal woods or hybrids (nothing with head covers)) while he played from the most fwd tees with his full bag.  Was a fun match and watching his competitive juices flowing.  He won the match 1/0 holding the lead as we tied the ninth.  Stroke wise it was a messy nine for me and he beat me by one stroke - not bad for a 10yr old.  Best of all - it was a dream session come true.

      My instructor before I found TheSandTrap talked about he felt his left side more in the golf swing. I am nearly all right side dominant. I am also almost 100% right eye dominant, to the point I have low stereoscopic eyesight because of that dominance.  With one of my pieces, a bit of left wrist flexion. That is much easier to feel if I focus on my left hand. For me, taking my right hand dominance out of it helps a bit.
