  1. Today
  2. Day 31 - 2026-01-20 Stuck inside for most of the day, more mirror work. Back at the range tomorrow.
  3. Day 56: foam ball drill work in my garage for a solid 20 minutes. Trying to meld the downswing stuff with a proper backswing. Tweaks are looking good.
  4. Day 20, 1/20. I know I'm sounding like a broken mp3 at this point, but I'm continuing to hit balls after work, even if I only have the energy to hit a dozen good ones (as I did today).
  5. That is good as well. Counter to what people think, weight lifting increases mobility if you perform a full range of motion, getting that deep stretch under load.
  6. Day 160 1-20 Backswing focus tonight making sure wrist is slighly cupped. Worked on wrist arch in downswing. Pausing at top, but shorter duration
  7. Day 2 (20 Jan 26) - Similar work as yesterday - started with lead hand solo drills with the 50°, followed by series of pitches and chips utilizing full setup.
  8. Yesterday
  9. Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine.
  10. Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
  11. It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
  12. It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
  13. I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure. Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin. If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.

  19. I use a staff bag when I take a cart, I like the large openings for the ease of pulling the clubs out of the bag. Furthermore, in the winter the weather is always in a state of flux, the large pockets allow for storage of numerous layers of clothing.

  21. Day 55: mirror work again today. Still working on cleaning up backswing stuff.
  22. Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow.
  23. Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today. Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball. Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices. Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings. Good restart to the daily drills.
  24. That depends what you do within those two. Are they your only options? Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment. It's linked on the sidebar; I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon. Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness.
  25. Day 19, 1/19. Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net. Usual focus.
  26. Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
  27. Last week
  28. What’s better for golf pilates or yoga?
