7/14 fairways

14/18 GIR

36 putts

yuck 

 

I’m most posting to show that I’m repping the sand trap and the 2015 Newport cup!

Working on a very specific feel, which is the stretching of the right side on the backswing. It’s helped me get deep with the pivot instead of yanking my arms inside.

im struggling somewhat with the downswing, tho, especially with the driver. Gets a little steep feeling.

So, just curious, why did you sign up for Evolvr and then not submit anything? 🙂

I’ve been trying to find a local coach because I prefer in person instruction to online, but I have so far failed at that. I’m relatively pleased at my progress working on my own, as well.

But, if I were a betting man, I’d be on evolvr being my next step!

Okay. Was just curious.

Played in the member-member with my father this weekend. We came in third in our flight, missing the championship shootout by one measly point. 

I played the best golf of my life. We played 45 holes (27 on Saturday, 18 on Sunday).

 

Scores

75 (+3) [134/72.5]

36 (E) [133/36.3]

76 (+4) [134/72.5]

 

Stats

8/14 Fairways -- 8/18 GIR -- 28 Putts

6/9 Fairways -- 6/9 GIR -- 15 Putts

12/14 Fairways -- 10/18 GIR -- 31 Putts

 

A lot of places for improvement, but I am happy with how I did. I put a lot of pressure on myself to play well, and I responded with the best scores I've ever shot at this particular golf course. Also, had a great time playing with my dad! 

These tournament scores also continue a trend of really good play. I've broken 80 in the last five 18 hole rounds, and shot par on the one nine hole round. Gol is way more fun when you're playing well!

    • Day 54. Was in a good place last week. Yesterday’s round killed my confidence.  Full swing practice trying to get back to where I was but struggled with being tired and tense. Back to basics tomorrow. 
    • Welcome back! Evolvr.com? I don't use the full extreme end of it, and that's probably dipped to 75% or so nowadays. But I use the sole more than I don't, yeah. Also… it's good to learn this shot: Middle up. Not generally outside your feet in either direction. I generally have it slightly forward of center, yeah. Short version: tip your upper body in the direction of the slope. Look at the GC3. You can find them for really good prices sometimes.
    • 3 rainouts in a row….that’s SAD Sorry, I’m in MI or I would take you up on a round.  
    • Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.  
    • Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.
