I had been struggling with my consistency a little bit, and I was reminded of something I was taught in the beginning...

Keep your head as still as possible throughout the entire golf swing. If I can stay in one place with my head, then I will have the best chance of hitting the ball consistently and making solid contact. Everything else just came together and I shot 2 under for the 9 holes I had time to play.

In my bag todayâ¦.

yeah, sometimes I just need to keep my head/body down throughout my swing. It can do wonders.

I think thats just a mental thing, you could pull on your sleeves like fred couples and it would probably accomplish the same thing. Which of course is to cut out your swing thoughts

      Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall.

      2026 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.

      Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).

      Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
