Its actually a heated 300 yard range with holes at 25 75 100 150 175 200 250 markers.

That's a steal for $120 a month. Wish I had an exclusive place like that around here - it gets old waiting for stall space here at the public course ranges and having to deal with Houston's erratic weather.

2011 Goals:
* Improve club-head speed to 90 mph with the driver
* Ensure increased speed does not compromise accuracy
* Prevent overextending on the back-swing (left-arm is bending too much at the top)
* Relax arms initially at address ( too tense)* Play more full rounds (failed from 2010)

Interesting. I've never "tipped" my pro either, and I've worked with him for a year. Originally, I was working with him once a week. After a few months, it evolved to every other week, and now because of both of our schedules, it averages about once every 2.5 weeks. I pay $95/hr. We usually play 5 holes, playing two ball best ball, and sometimes it runs over a little. Wouldn't think tipping on that rate would be expected, but even my dry cleaner has a tip jar, so who knows.

Who the Hell tips the dry cleaner, anyway?

    • Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow. 
    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
