Tempo drills never really helped me. What did work was developing the feel of my hips clearing in preparation for my club dropping into the slot. In other words, I have substituted any regulation of tempo with developing a feel for the sequencing of my mechanics.

My consistency I find in myself is my breathing pattern and I try to sync up my swing with it by initiating the swing at the end of deep exhalation.

This is an interesting statement because I realize now that I have super fast arms and a slow/lazy torso rotation. Which leads me to flipping the club at impact. What I have been doing as of today actually is slowing down my arms to match my torso, which makes the hinge and hold a lot easier. Are you saying to speed up my torso to match the speed of my hands/arms?

    • A hair under 190. It was pretty downhill, though, so I think we were playing between 180-185 to the pin. My 6 iron went 187 according to shot scope and ended up 18 feet away.
    • That's a tough pin on 14 at TR, had to make the hole play much longer, how far was that shot? I've only played that hole with a front pin.
    • No, but I spent (marginally) less time in the trees at Southern Pines, so it definitely played wider for me 😆. It definitely felt wider.
    • Have you measured? 🙂
    • I'm bad about taking pictures, but here are a few Hole 1 on Duke, looking toward the green. The elevated green with bunkers surrounding it was a theme. The other theme was pin placements that were tough - this one is pretty far left. There were basically no easy pins on this day.     Hole 3 at Pine Needles. An extremely cool hole. Hole 5 at Pine Needles. The picture doesn't do the green site justice. Green of 6 at Southern Pines. A wild green, and a really cool setting at the edge of the property: Hole  Tee shot on 5 at Tobacco Road. Flag is on the flag, the huge fairway is to the right. Hole 8 at Tobacco Road. Downhill, medium length par 3 with this pin in the front part of the green. Really cool looking shot. A look at the pin placement and cottage on Tobacco Road 14. I hit one of my best shots of the trip here, to about 15 feet.
