So, I started over-speed training this week.

Today was my second day and I had a little accident. 

Anyone ever hit their radar device with a speed stick. ... In my case the red over-speed stick? 
I sent the device a flying and needless to say it doesn't work anymore. I can't imagine why not. 🤷‍♂️

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Yah, I have broken one few years ago. I think I got carried away and starting swinging as hard as I could, lost control and.... well, it happens.

My daughter did this once. And I had a student nick it.

Swing like 18" away from it. There's no need to swing all that close to those things.

I've since switched to the PRGR and may just use the Mevo+ in the future.

Thanks goodness it wasn’t your beer! 😜

I swing about 10-12 inches away from it.

It happened at about 6:30 in the morning. So if it was my beer I may have other issues. 

Normally I stay pretty clear of it as well. But I was doing the step-change drill with the red-stick and I guess I wasn't paying attention. It exploded with pieces and batteries flying all over the basement. Made me feel pretty dumb.

I assume there were some expletives involved.

Well thinking on the positive side, it wasn’t the best unit for golf. It seems to miss a lot if you are high or low of the radar cone.

    • Day 19: worked with foam balls for a while. Going slow to make sure I’m rolling and twisting. It feels weird, which is good. Going to take more work, but I’m on the way I think. 
    • Day 39 (16 Apr 26) - Back to easy swings as the lead foot was overly tender from yesterday - stuck to some easy pitches with wedges and a few 1/2 tempo swings with 6i.  Was good to slow down and work on setup and overall alignment…
    • I saved the ball and wrote the details -- "my first eagle," course, hole number, and date on it.  Maybe I should write the yardage and the club too.
    • Day 8, April 16.  Continued pelvis turn drills after work today;  I've already spent 20 minutes doing this, am taking a short break (and have fulfilled the challenge for the day) and then I'm back to it.  
    • Played 9 holes tonight. Driver is hit or miss, but I haven’t practiced that at all. It was a struggle to get sequencing down for the arms and lower body. I definitely have to do my downswing wrist piece a lot or I just push the crap out of the ball. Pitching needs some work. Chipping was good, chipped in twice. Putting was fine.  Shank Counter: 2
