My wife and I spent 3 months on the range before we hit the course for the 1st time - it drove the membership saleswoman crazy and she kept threatening to drag us out herself. All I can say is just get out there - we played afternoons until we felt we could keep up with the pace of play of the morning crew.

Thanks :) We've gone to one local course (9-hole) so far. We're going there again this weekend if the weather is good. Most people there are beginners and people are patient, so it works out well. I shot a 49 (par 30). Hopefully I'll do better this time. I hit a fairway from every tee. This time I'm hoping to hit my OWN fairway each time.

Big goals...

This is going to be a great track when it matures. Unfortunatly it will probably be lined with houses by the time that happens.

Never up, Never in!

This course just began a major renovation within the last few weeks with one of Jack Nicklaus's leading architects.

Pretty nice course. My 'home' course for lunch practice. Driving range is so-so and chipping area is rock hard unfortunately.

Closer to my home and my Saturday course. Driving range has excellent distance markers and mats. Chipping area varies from soft, long grass to harder ground. Very busy though. Oddly enough the putting green is huge, but only has six holes.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
