Well today I did two things that I have never done before. I played an entire round with one ball, and I FINALLY broke 90 with an 88. This was also the first time I played this course. I have played since college in 1990, but never really tried to get any better, well I tried, I just did not have the time or the $ to do so. Well back in July a buddy and I decided that we were going to get better. Since then I have played over 20 rounds, consistantly hit the driving range, and bacame a student of the game. Now tomorrow I could go out and shoot 110, but today was an 88!

That's awesome man. I love not losing any balls. Usually it doesn't happen, though. Not because I hit it in the woods, it's just that I'll get pissed and whip it 50 yards into the woods lol.

    • 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.
