Day 2: I went to the practice facility and worked on trying to dial in my 1/2 to 3/4 swing with my 48* Wedge and 52* Wedge. I had my alignment sticks out and kept close attention to ball placement in my stance as well as aim. After practicing with my Wedges I moved into full swing with my 6, 5 3 Utility Iron and 2 Utility Iron while working with my alignment sticks All told I got about 1 hour of practice in. For my tracking, yesterday I added to my previous Day 1 practice by going to the practice facility in the evening. I hit 5 shots with my irons starting with my PW up to my 5i. I utilized my alignment sticks thru the session. After this I moved to the chipping area and worked on chipping from the approach. Then I worked on flop shots out of the groomed thick 2nd cut followed by sand trap shots. Then I finished with a putting session. All told 2 1/2 hours or so. -

QST is a nice choice. The will go on sale 2-3 times a year. Also, prior gens are dirt cheap on line. -
Day 211 Did some 9-3 swings hitting balls off a mat, focusing on getting my left hip to keep turning through the swing instead of stalling. Goal is to have this feeling translate to full swing. -
No, the police knew George and probably did this premeditated. This case is unique in that regard. There are videos of police using that choke hold / maneuver on white people as well, with deadly consequences. By all regards, the policeman who used this choke hold did so with violation of written regulation on when it should be used. If they were even properly trained on when to use it. I feel like cops are given a patchwork of techniques that they hardly practice when to and how to use it. Two of the cops were brand new to the force and were with a person who has been a policeman for over 10 years. Sorry to say, it probably would be career suicide to stand up to a cop with that many more years of service. It's not the right thing to do, but it's a very human thing that happens. Especially when you hear stories about how police department culture can be. They would be branded snitches. Their lives would be hell for their career. Don't get me wrong, I wish they had the courage to stand up to policeman using the choke hold on George. I can understand their position and they're apprehension to not stepping in. Now, the third cop, who stood by and actually try to stop people from filming, should be hit with higher chargers than the two new police officers. It should be training. It should be training that new police should know they can stand up and report on incidents like these. I get you want people to magically have this thought, "Just treat them like family." But, that is a pipe dream that will never come true. Humans will forever treat people they don't know not as family. Still, you can treat someone with dignity and respect and still care for you family more.
