65/20/15 Practice Ratios: Where to Devote Your Practice Time

I wish I could play a round with you guys and get some pointers or feedback. The points brought up are awesome and I'm just on page 2 of the thread

as a bad golfer who never keeps score out of frustration, (I'll start then abandon it once I blow up a hole) if I can drive effectively in the fairway, there's less chance the hole will go bad. No guarantee but less of a chance

for people new to golf (I've played badly for many years) I'd say practice that tee shot and work on the rest at the course. Bad tee shot and there is no chance I'm going to have a successful hole

Hit thousands of chips in the yard and pretty much no correlation to better chipping during the game. In fact, I'm getting worse with practice I think. So will now play once a week but little actual practice

    • We played with two local guys who said they didn't really like the course either. Fun to play with them as they were smashing it 300 yds off the tee. We started out planning to go to AS, and on a future visit we will make it down there. Thanks for recommendation.
    • Day 7,  Some indoor practice after getting the yard mowed and stabbing myself with a briar bush removal near my back fence.  Stop the swing at A3, right palm down to the ground at A6. Backswing length + downswing priority. 
    • Day 86: Played 18 this morning at my home course. Approach play was poor, short game was decent and kept score from getting out of hand.
    • From your description, you need to work on a consistent-ish club face at impact. Most practice swings have open faces and variable paths due to the conscious thought that goes into them, so you need to swing at a ball for us to help. 
    • thinking of experimenting with shorter shaft in driver. i know shortening the length will throw off swing weight and i will play with lead tape to see what changes i can make as i progress but my main question was about the shaft and stiffness.  i normally play a stiff so would it be beneficial to get an extra stiff 5-wood shaft to compensate for club head weight?
