well I played yesterday and shot a 88. Had 2 problem holes posted a 7 and a 8. Most of the holes I was on and putting for par and was good deal away form the hole. My putting has gotten better to almost stop 3 putts ( except the 7,8 yesterday)
So waht are some drills I can do to get my approach shots up tight in reg to make pars or even a birdie once in a while. Thanks for all of the help

How long were most of those approach shots? It's too much to ask to stick it close from everywhere. The goal of good players, as far as I understand, is to stick it close when they have a short club in their hands, and to be in a position to have a short club in their hands as often as possible.

Anything inside of 100 yards was good for me yesterday. Would like to get better from 160 . That is a good 7 iron for me. Guess I'll go some were I can set up a target at 160 and in and work on hitting the target.

    • 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 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • 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 .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
