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.

Frank

Fairways and Greens,

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.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
