hit full swing golf balls for about the first time in two months in the local golf bubble.... a little good a little bad.

The Bad....

- My biggest swing fault i tend not to "stay back" with my hands; in other words, when i drop my hands, they go inside my right hips; as a result, i get stuck and can tend to leave the club face wide open or flip the wrists and lose all control.

- not enough good shots; on my mid/long irons, at least 50% of the swings were some variation of a shank (not as bad as you may think because i was focusing on some very technical things and not really trusting my swing.


The Good....
- On full swings, by "good" shots felt really really good. swung easy, stayed on plane

- Wedges were dialed in; only pulled maybe 1 out of 40 swings (pulls are my swing fault on short club); at one point, i landed 2 out of 3 balls in a bucket 60 yards out and hit several targets.... guess regripped my wedges worked.

- felt pretty comfortable with different finishes (high, med, low); not quite where i want it; but i want to play more low shots in the coming year

    • Interesting changes. The idea of relegation and promotion have always been there in a different form (getting and losing your card etc and qualifying for bigger events) but it looks like they want to define it better for top tier events. The Tour has always had A and B level events (and even lower). It will be interesting what they choose as the Challenger Series events and whether some tournaments go to the Challenger Series that used to be prestigious. Not sure how the networks will take to this knowing they have “Challenger” Series events defined that way now. Also, I’m not happy that John Henry and Theo Epstein are involved. Look what Henry has done to the Red Sox.

    • I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.
