I was chipping into his landscaping in the back corner of his yard. To make a long story short, he told me to try lining up to the ball with the toe of the club about mid-ball. I hit the most pure next 3 shots that they all consecutively went and hit his neighbor's shed.

Can anyone wonder why this is making me hit it better?

Maybe forcing your mind to swing inside-out.

No kidding. You have a great friend who is possibly a terrible neighbour. 3 times?

Haha, well gotta remember I'm hitting off some 3 inch kentucky blue grass. And the power behind it is what made me post thiss thread. I was taking the same swing 30 seconds before taking those and they were the right swing.

      Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
