Tomorrow has foursomes. For me that is the most enjoyable format for these types of events. In my opinion best in sports. Ryder Cup, Solheim Cup and Presidents Cup. 

Day 278: 9/26/24 Weight shift drills with ProSendr an putting through 50 mm gates.

I have been mired in a streak of mediocrity. Nothing but 81, 80, 82, 82, 81, etc. Finally broke the string with a 77 (8.0 differential). We will see if that is the exception or the start of a bit better play.

Here are the numbers of the test I just finished. Firstly I tested the app Spectroid were you can messure Hz and Db. Must admit that frecuencies were all over the place and only after 5 swings I switched to another app. Decibels were not normally messured so it was useless info.  Then I downloaded a basic decibel meter to repet the test I did earlier in the week. It was the "Sound Analyzer app" and I made 20 swings with my 6 iron. I put a coin in the corner of a tile on the floor, the PRGR 5 feet behind away from the path of the swing and half foot away from the coin (away from me) I set the phone with the decibel metter app and I swan away from the PRGR and parallel to the phone. This are both readings.  I ordered the speed from "slow" to "fast" and inserted a graph to see if there is any correlation between the speed and the decibels.  As spected on lower swing speeds the ambience sound was even louder than the swoosh of the club so the method was usless. But at higher speeds, beginning at around 60 m/h, it was easy to see that there was a relationship between both. They weren't growing at the same pace but it was proportional. At least for me, for a free app in an old smartphone it seams pretty usefull to know if swing A is faster than swing B in a particular practice session. When you want more speed, all you want to know is if your new move or swing though or technical change is going to give you more or less speed, looking at the decibels is really easy to see that and you don't need to spend money on launch monitors.  Of course, if you want someting that can compare your speed from place to place, session to session or club to club then you don't have much choice than go and get the launch monitor you can afford.  Bonus: Linear regresion of both variables.  Y: db, X: m/h
