There was a putting contest at the PGA Tour Superstore: be the last man standing to make a 30-foot putt and win two tickets to the Tour Championship. I picked up a TaylorMade Rossa Corzina that happened to be on sale...and missed the putt. They were to hold another contest in an hour, so I stuck around, and started making putt after long putt with it. The next contest came...and my putt lipped out. I didn't get the tickets, but I bought the putter.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Just went to Golfsmith, looking for a good deal on a used wedge. I found a barely-used McGregor MT-pro forged 58-degree wedge for $49.

It now sits in my bag, waiting for me to find trouble during my round this afternoon.

I've spent more on golf clubs this summer than in the past 10 years put together. My last golf purchase though, was a full set of used clubs from Kijiji. I was looking for another set of Hogan Apex PCs in case something happens to my set (2-E Apex PCs with Apex 3 shafts.

I picked up a set of Apex PCs with Apex 4s shafts (plus a Spalding carry bag, 3 Slazenger metal woods, a Fazer putter, Northwestern 60 wedge - a total POS - and a Ram Tom Watson 50 PW - exactly like the one I already have).

I played 4-holes this evening (long story) and everything felt great. The guy had recently regripped with Golf Pride Tour Velvet full cords - for $100 I am pleased.

    • Day 14, April 22.  This morning, before going to work, I took the time to hit two dozen balls (indoors, off the mat, into the net), all with a 6-iron.  As before, this was focused on the pelvis separation and the length of the backswing -- yesterday's video view was encouraging that I'm making progress.  
    • Hey folks, Here's be a better video that outlines some of my challenges.  Any suggestiosn welcome.    
    • I enjoyed the distance wedges episode. It's something that I've not really taken the time to figure out for sure, but I went to a local trackman place over the winter and tested my four wedges (PW, AW, 54, 58) and got four yardages with each one. I am using Dan Grieve's method - you have a 1, 2, 3, and "full". The number references the number of clubhead widths between your heels.  I never really got to grips with the clock method - I'd find my 9:00 one day would go 40 yards and the next day 60 yards purely based on how fast I happened to swing it, but I couldn't turn that off and I was basically at sea with the speed method (Wesley Bryan does this - he takes almost a full swing for a 15 yard chip). The Grieve method I set my stance width and that really limits how much my swing moves back and forth and the speed seems to be naturally more consistent.  Anyway, I wound up with four yardages for each club - PW 48, 80, 112, 127; AW 41, 73, 101, 112; 54 36, 57, 91, 98; 58 28, 47, 81, 86 So, in order, I have 28, 36, 41, 47, 48, 57, 73, 80, 81, 86, 91, 98, 101, 112, 112, 127 which gives me a pretty good set of numbers. I do have a big gap from 57 to 73, but I can do a 2.5 58, which is giving me about 64. Then as they noted you can give it a bit more, or grip down on a club too to adjust a little bit. It's really useful and very freeing to just know what to do. When you have a 54 yard pitch, rather than pulling my 58 and thinking how hard is 54, I can just take my 54, do a "2" swing and just grip down a little and I'm in decent shape.  Incidentally, Erik talked a bit about watching Scheffler picking off his yardages to within a yard. I've watched DJ do that too with his wedges. Scottie does it trying to hit it all the way up to like 200 exactly with a 6-iron and he's hitting it 200.5, 199.7, etc. Absolutely mind blowing how good his distance control is. Insane.
