i hit 93% of the fairways today, missing only one, and it wasn't a huge miss - i was maybe two yards into the rough on the left. and then of course i couldn't sink a putt to save my life to counteract the accuracy off the tee. i felt like ben hogan out there - hitting every fairway and missing every putt.

That is quite a feat, hitting all those fairways and not really having a tee shot that was too bad. A bulkie putter is just part of the game, happens to everyone some days. Congrats. All I used to hear was "fairways and greens" as if that was the whole game... That needs amending to "fairways and greens, and a good day putting." Now that would be the answer to golf.

I think you heard wrong. Hit a bad drive and I doubt you will be putting for much dough.

Congrats on your great driving day. I've been driving the ball much better with good distance but the most I have hit is 10 out of 14, which I am perfectly happy with. Wish I could get that kind of percentage for my GIR's. That would be some feat!

    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls. 
    • Day 1 - 2025-12-20 Starting a new streak, of at least 1. With rain dumping for the next week in the north bay area, I'll be a lot of outdoor net work and maybe some putting. About 10 minutes of 7 iron work, focused on the usuals: weight transfer, keeping hands behind me. I'll have more time in the coming days for video review and maybe some Hack Motion.
    • Day 40 (20 Dec 25) - got in a few reps with the 55° wedge - focused on low flighted spinners from about 10 yds in, then wrapped up the session with a few bump and runs chips with the 5i using a putting type stroke.
