I found this forum during an article search related to golf. Thank you for allowing me to join and I look forward to learning as much as I can from the other members. 

Just a little bit about me, I have been playing golf for 30 years and have lived in Scotland while I served in the military. I was able to play a few local courses there in between my work and family schedule. Having fully retired now, I am able to commit 3 days a week to plane and the other 3 days to practice on my short game and putting. I currently have  a GHIN index of 10.6 and I am hoping to lower that to a single digit very soon.

Welcome to the group Frank. If you spend six days a week practicing, AND PROVIDED it is the correct things, you will almost certainly become a single digit handicapper soon.

Welcome.... great to see others from SWFL join.  I live in Sarasota, so if you are in this area, we should chat about getting together.

Wishing you success in your journey to a single digit HCP.   Maybe you will consider posting in the 5 Minutes A Day Challenge.

    • Day 2 March 13th, 2025 Hit a small bucket checking stuff on video. Mostly back to controlling swing length and right elbow. 
    • Video 1 of 2025 Lower body is better. Right knee kicks out less. Left knee straightens better. I don’t have that knee bounce post impact. Backswing and downswing with the arms, needs a bit of work. Nice OTT move there. Video 2 of 2025 - hey I can keep it short.  back to trying to keep the swing shorter and control the right elbow. Lots of half backswing feel and very straight arms. Also trying to start the downswing sooner so the swing doesn’t go on forever with the turn. Got to limit it to 90 degrees shoulder and 45 degrees hips. 
    • Day 236: did a stack session.
    • Day 164 - 2025-03-13 Got the new QuadMAX. Didn't get a chance to test it, but got to Golf Evolution about 45 minutes before lessons, so I did some backswing and downswing work in.
    • @klineka has already addressed this stuff, but as I said in my first answer… distance control is typically more important. Knowing exactly how far a ball will carry is huge.
