Right now my putting stroke is very shakey and my driver is too inconsistent, I'm really leaning towards using my 3 wood for a while I have a fair amount of confidence and control with this club that I just don't feel with the driver right now, I want to change the shaft back to 45" and get the swingweight dialed in. I may change putters also and go back to my old Wilson 2010 that thing has some great feel to it, it just doesn't have the same solid MOI the Taylormade has.

It's very weird but it seems like lately I start out solid but by the end of the round I've simply forgotten how to hit the ball.  It's hard to explain, it's like I completely lose the ability to tell if my setup is right, my backswing is normal, etc.  It seems like I hit overall worse shots but I can't put a finger on why.  Maybe it's just the fatigue of playing the previous 12 or 15 holes or whatever.

I also notice I have a bad habit of checking out when I start playing like crap.  If I get a few double bogeys early and see that even if I play great and par the rest of the holes for whatever 9 I'm on my score will still be mediocre so I just kinda stop trying.

The bar does not open till 10am ... That and I struggle with "closing the door" at impact ... Swing too much with shoulders, especially my left shoulder loves to pull up and out ... Cause me to hit the ball a bit open and on the toe ... But main thing is still the hours of the bar ... That's my story and I am sticking too it ...

    • Day 292: light day today. Mirror work, working on getting my hips more open in the downswing.
    • Day 135 (27 Apr 24) - played Bradford Creek today while waiting for the missus fly in from her extended visit with the grands.  Good day to stay focused as it was a hurry up (groups pressing from behind) and wait (groups taking their time ahead)…a good day to stay mentally in the game - play the shot and not get frustrated in the waiting…
    • Day 122: 4/27/24 Supposed to be a Stack training day but I was beat after yard work today. Practiced chipping and putting at The Creek. The practice green is pretty slow but the session went well. 
    • Went to the range today and was cursing myself when I got there as I realized I forgot my phone. I added an earlier wrist hinge to the short backswing I was using last time practicing and ball strikes were really good for the most part. I'm heading back to Boston Thursday to see friends and family and have a couple of rounds planned so I'm hoping to keep this feeling.  Yesterday morning I weighed in at 232. My goal had been 230 but maybe now it's 220. I'll have to think about that. I feel so much better without the extra 90 lbs. from 2 years ago. Still a softl slightly less protruding belly so it might be time to go hard on eating better. Work in progress. 
    • Day 7- Went to the range and hit a bucket. Also did some chipping and putting.
