  1. 1. what speed player are you?

    • speedy fast - no practice swing, stand over the ball, look at the target once and fire away. you wife only allowed you to leave her sight for 2 hours so u better hurry up!
      8
    • steady pace - you know your game and know the course and am not out to break the course record today. your not trying something new today or taking mulligans. your just getting a round in and doing what you do
      35
    • normal - today is the day! you know what you did wrong last time you played from watching the "golf fix" and today your gonna get it right even if it means taking a mulligan or two
      8
    • hit the ball already - you have checked your gps, carefully selected a club and then the wind picks up 1 mph so you carefully select anouther club. you throw the grass in the air even when putting and have 20 swing thoughts in your head that cause your to take up to 4 mulligans on each hole.

Fast.

I never take practice swings, unless it is to get a feel for power around the greens.

I stand behind my ball, visualize what I want it to do, do some mental calculations about the elements, then swing away.

I find when I take practice swings, I get more tense and have a higher tendency to mishit it.

Single digit handicap

    • 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.
