Well, I hate to admit this, but no 300 yard drive, despite witnesses, unless my GG is not accurate.  This happens all the time at my league, guys tell me I hit it 280 then GG tells me only 250. Here is my GG from Whispering Woods #17, it registered 277. I'm not complaining, it was still a nice poke that I was happy with.

What I'd recommend… 8am to 9am - I get started with @StuM and @dennyjones. 9am to 10am - I help out @Chris Brooks and @Carl3. 10am to 10:45am - I help out @saevel25 and @ChetlovesM

Hey guys. This was totally worth it.  I had a blast and I feel like I have new stuff to work on.  PLUS - @StuM proved he CAN hit a 300 yard drive! It happened I witnessed it.

I think we'll set that at $100. Normal rate for 45-minute lessons for me is $80, so $100 for five hours of "time" at Golf Evolution seems okay. Cash is preferred, but checks are fine, PayPal is f

@StuMyou do know you’re supposed to round up to closest 25 yard interval right? Sort of like pumping gas in the Netherlands.

And YES, it was worth it.  I feel we should look at doing this again, maybe in the spring?

Happy to have you again. I’d again recommend playing before coming. If you want to play afterwards too, okay. But sometimes that doesn’t go well as you’re tired AND thinking about a lot that’s nowhere near ingrained yet.

Ah. Were you going by hole yardage? Doglegs… On the other hand it WAS wet.

Agree, day before and REST after lesson.  I was definitely done after the 5 hour group lesson.

Yes, looked at yardage and forgot to consider the dog-leg.  Still, on my league I will hit one on a straight hole znxvghd guys try to tell me I am 30 yards further than I am.

edit. Changed “fog-leg” to “dog-leg”

Dude, what are you doing? 
Don't let facts ruin a good drive. I will take the stand and swear it was 305! After all, "Anyone can hit a 300 yard drive."

Thanks for the invite...just saw this, been a busy summer/fall. 

In San Diego so I couldn't have made it anyway, but keep me in mind for the next one. God knows my game could use it...

      Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry

      You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.
