I just got back from practicing today. They had a big outing at the course so I couldn't get on so I got a bucket and took some of your advice. I hit my driver after a couple warm up wedge shots, just to get my body loose. Man, what a difference than the last couple days. I hit it about as good as I can expect, except for a couple shanks (can't all be perfect yet). I also hit my hybrids better than normal, then went to chip, putt, and work in the sand. Came back and hit some irons. It felt good until the end again. I think I know what is happening, I lose focus (something to work on) and I get lazy in my swing, I don't make a good rotation and then use my hands to try and kill the ball, I close the club face at impact and get those nasty low hooks. At this point, I think it is both mental and physical. Just have to tell myself to slow down and focus. Thanks again for all the advice.

If you get to the point where you are getting tired, more practice isnt going to do you any good because you wont be making your best swing. Also, mindlessly blasting balls at the range for hours isnt always the best way to improve.
You need to focus on what the weakest part of your game is and what part of your swing you struggle with and work on that.

    • Unfortunately I don't have a mental record of putts that stand out, most recently a putt for eagle Sunday I think it was, but I mentioned it already. However last night I had a putt that, to me, was mood altering. I had a very stressful day at the cancer doctor with wife, waited over an hour and a half for a 2pm appointment. Then all of the chemo talk and hospice talk and anyways, just not pleasant. Our league kicks off at 5pm and I got to the course at 4:50, no warm up, just walk to the first tee and go. Got to the par 5 6th sitting at 6 over, I pushed my drive 260ish up the right into the other fairway rough, had a clean lie and good angle to green, promptly sliced a 5 wood to back left of green wide and long. Left me 60 yards plus or minus. Fatted my wedge to 16 foot of the hole. Keep in mind I was fuming, had been since the first hole, I was entertaining thoughts of walking off, I told my putter I was going to feed him to the gators, it was brutal. I got behind the ball and took some BS look at the line and just hit the putt and the damn ball went in for birdie. I leaped like Phil and fist pumped like Tiger all in the same move I think. I needed that little brief moment. It put me in a better mood and clamed me down. I still played like a hack the rest of the round, but so did everyone else now that I think about it. Extremely windy. I walked off with a 46, thats with a birdie. LOL
