So, I Cut My Thumb on a Deli Slicer and....


Recommended Posts

I had to take a good two weeks off from swinging a club. 

After starting again following an 18 or so year hiatus, I'd gone from 140+ in my first round back to low 100s/high 90s. Everything was progressing well. 

Now I suddenly don't have a golf swing anymore. It's this awkward stiff slapping motion like I'm trying to hit a mosquito mid-flight with a golf club. Even when I do manage to make good contact, I've lost 20 yards off each club. 

I'm thinking this is a back to basics rebuild. Anyone know of any good videos that covers this?

DING!!

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

    • Day 319 - More mirror work, same focus on finishing higher and more towards the target. 
    • Day 135: worked on putting bead for a while with the 2 cups drill. 
    • Day 211 (29 Nov 24) - Friday men’s round albeit a solo foursome (temps in the 40’s, day after Thanksgiving and the average age closer to 75 - I’m a youngster at 65).  Interesting day of semi-solid play (8 of 18 GIR). Hit all four par threes in one (a first) - parred each; still had a couple 3 putt bogies; and blew up on 3 of the par 5’s (go figure)). The blow ups were some serious tree rattlers - amplifying how I got stupid and greedy instead of smart and content to just get back in the short stuff. 
    • Day 60 - 2024-11-29 Got about 3.5' of snow today, so I was going to go to Golf Evolution, but… I only left the house to throw some snow. Instead, i checked out my putting stroke on HackMotion in the basement. Turns out… it's pretty good, and I'm very in touch with what I'm doing.
