I've been meaning to learn AimPoint for about ever now. I was discussing this with @iacas and came up with an idea for a group meeting in March. 

Probably near the end of March to allow the students to start practicing it shortly after learning it. (I think AimPoint works in the snow but not as well.) I want to kick off the 2022 season using AimPoint. 

I'm assuming most of us would prefer a Saturday or a Sunday. With @iacas's schedule that would mean at or after 2:00 on Saturday or after 12:30 on Sunday. (He has juniors until those times.)

Three questions:

  1. Would you like to participate in an AimPoint class at Golf Evolution in late March?
  2. Would you prefer Sunday afternoon or Saturday late afternoon? 
  3. I'm thinking March 26-27th - ish. Is that weekend okay or would you prefer a different one? 

Group meet ups are always fun. Let me know what you all think.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Would love to but don’t think I’ll be back in the NE until May timeframe. I did AimPoint Express a year ago and I think it has been a huge help for me. Been wanting to do a refresher.

I've blogged about my wanderings since 2003. I love roaming throughout the USA looking for remote public golf courses to play.

I would love to take an Aimpoint class. I would assume that this would be done on an actual green that has varying degrees of slope, or am I wrong?. Saturday or Sunday afternoon is fine. I can put that weekend on my calendar.

Golf Evolution has an indoor green with lots of varying slopes.

I was there recently, which is why I asked. Looks fairly flat to me. I would think that a place like the practice green at Whispering woods would be good where you can really see the fall line.

Thanks for the link, I wondered what was in the lower level. Due to the signage I dared not go down for a peek 😅 Members Only

The green rug area in the front, around the stairs that go to the lower level, is the green. There are lots of slope areas. IIFC, there is one area that is around a 4 and most area between 1 and 3.

I first learned AimPoint at Golf Evolution. You learn the method and then you can take it to any practice green you want.

The bathroom.

It was built specifically to teach AimPoint. It’s got 0-6% slopes.

One of the 30 foot putts breaks 7 or 8 feet.

so if you think it’s flat then you probably need to learn AimPoint. 🙂

    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting. 
    • Day 96 (18 Mar 24) - Continued work with the Divot Board with the GW and hard foam balls.  Focused on small target/small miss…setup to hit target about 30yds out - success if it hit within 6’ circle of target, fail if outside.  Had decent success averaging about 3 out of 4 (hitting in groups of four).

    • I'm relieved someone finally defined hiking. I was giddy when I saw these new TPI videos a day or so after they dropped. Very easy to understand the problem and solution the way they have presented it. Been working on fixing this for about a year and a half now. It's nice to be able to call it something so communication becomes easy.  I was working on more lateral and up too, but just having someone define it clearly in video form was so helpful for me to continue confidently with what I thought was wrong and how I had to fix it.  My conceptual error here was just trying to rotate like a tour pro but without including the necessary forward pressure/weight shift associated with enough lateral and upward motion of the pelvis.  This video is great too, as is Greg Rose.
    • Day 2.    couple mins of rolling putts end over end.    10 mins of Slow, mirror work, working on starting the downswing and impact wrist positions. Hit a couple balls into the net after.    Then finished with a couple chips to see if I could repeat what I worked on yesterday.
