Just curious, but why didn't you play multiple sports each year? I did football, wrestling, tack (ish) and golf.

Tried but practice's interfere!

Played my first Round of golf and shot 114? :(

Shot 114 for my first ever round of golf?

Posted before today:

Most know I'am on my High School golf team (my first year).

Look, I mean no offense by this, but how on earth are you "on" your high school golf team? Do you mean you're going to try out for it, or that they don't cut anyone, or something like that? I'm not a big fan of counting your chickens before they've hatched.

12 years ago when I was a sophomore we got the nike sponsor and everyone got all excited. All it is 1 or 2 shirts, bags(you have to return), sleeve of balls every match(which were titleist), and a discount on shoes(there spikes weren't that great then). As for shooting 114 stick with it we had a JV team at my school so our coach made us play for our spots every week. We only had to cut 1 or 2 kids.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
