Not exactly sure what this is asking...just stories or tips? Well I have a tip/drill that I came up with:

I was having trouble topping my irons, so I went to the range and was hitting, and still wasn't getting under the ball that well. I then noticed a tee that was pushed all the way into the ground (so all you could see was the top). I just swing at the tee for no real reason and I took a perfect divot and the tee went flying. I got a great idea. I then just found a bunch of broken tees and pushed them all the way into the ground and just swing normally trying to dig just enough that I hit the tees out of the ground. The next day, I shot my best round because of my great irons, and my perfect divots. If you are struggling getting under the ball, try this. It will teach you to take good divots.

Ben Hogan's Five Lessons. All I've ever read and if I get a tip that someone gives me that tells me otherwise, I ignore it.

***EDIT***

I guess I misread the TC. Thought he was asking for fundamentals.

    • Day 47, June 22.  After work today, I spent 20 minutes in my indoor practice room, hitting about as many balls.  Slow, as slow as I could, 6-iron swings, same priority piece as the past month. 
    • Day 291 6-22 full, faster swings, focusing on low point, missing towel. Recorded some face on and dtl. Practicing full speed changes is something I wasn't doing enough. 
    • Day 2 (22 Jun 26) - used the clip the tee drill today - focused on picking the tee and then collecting the divot.  Hit a few hard foam balls later in the session.  
    • Club of the week, my hybrid. Stripe show on every shot. This one was probably the best. About 240 to the green. The ball was on a severe upslope. I hit it just off the back of the green (like 1-ft. 
    • That will sting for a long time. Had all the momentum in the world.  The on course heckling of WC a bit over the top. IMO, that may have even galvanized him. Kinda like RC. He may have picked up some sympathy too. So boo to the boos. I can't stand him (and it's not just the incidences) but I think when punishment outsizes the crime, the tide tend to turn. He has stuck to "I've earned the hatred" narrative. Smart kid.
