It has been a long time coming but I made my first real swings today in a very long time.  I only hit about 30 balls, but it felt great.  The wrist has some very slight soreness but overall it felt ve

The difference in your impact position is truly inspiring. Hopefully the scores will start dropping very soon for you

I appreciate that.  Unfortunately there is very little golf left in the season for me to find out.  The good news is I have the winter to work on it and I have a good feeling about everything for next season.

Yes there is always next year. Must be annoying have what, like 6-7 months of the year where you cant get out on the course? At least in the UK it be rainy and overcast but you can at least play for 11 months of the year usually.

Yeah seven months, and if we are lucky we will have eight. :)

Below is the main picture I like about what Erik and Dave worked on with me to change.  Before is on the left and after on the right.  My issue is pretty much all about what I am doing from A4.5 or so to A7.  The changes will help me a lot with keys 4 and 5 down the line. It will also help me with low point consistency and hitting the ball higher.  You can pretty much see this in the photos.  I have to fight a few bad habits but I will be able to correct them pretty quickly with some hard work and make it consistent.

If you don't mind me asking, what is the difference in feels or swing thoughts from the picture on the left to the one on the right?

Just what is written at the bottom of the picture for the most part.  I won't get into what my exact feels are too much but the words below the photo are a pretty nice description.  I will just say the feels with my arms are slightly passive and the lower body is more active in the downswing.  It is all about what happens on the way down as the difference in those two pictures.

Played a few holes this morning.  Oh dang what am I going to do?  I have to re-calculate my yardages. ;-)

Practiced some short game and AimPoint before playing a few holes as well.

Are you hitting it that much further? That picture on the right is amazing by the way.

Maybe up to 10 yards with the irons.  I will know more when I play on a warm day.  This morning I hit an 8 iron as far as I was hitting my 7 all summer.

I plan on seeing you at scratch or +.5 by mid summer, 2014. Excellent work and dedication man. Still bummed we weren't able to get that round in while you were up here. Next time...

We could always meet up when I'm in Chicago/Schaumburg next month.

Thanks Slice.  I would be overjoyed to be even close to a one something by that time.  I will keep working on the swing through the winter and time will tell.

Definitely, just send me a PM sometime when you are coming and we can hopefully meet up and get a round in.  There are some great courses down there.

Sounds good. I'll be there for two weeks in early October.

Perfect. Hopefully the weather cooperates. I'll be in Schaumburg during the weekdays, and Chicago on the weekend. Oct. 7th through the 17th or something like that.

Just a couple miles north of Medinah, what do you say we go...ah that's not going to happen. :-)

It looks like there is a nice county course nearby there.  Highland Woods.

At the range for lunch today.  Gave myself two shots at each angle to see if I am sticking with it or regressing.  Pretty happy for the most part.  Head dipping back in the FO video...back to work.  Hitting the ball much higher and farther.  Miss is now a slight little push cut.

      Are You a Fair Weather or All Weather Golfer?

      By mchepp ·

      When I lived in Oregon my friend had a rule. It could only be 2 of the following 3 items for us to play. If all 3 we’d skip.    1. Windy (20+) 2. Rainy (needs to be steady, rain in Oregon is pretty common) 3. Cold (less than a high of 50) This was a pretty solid rule.

      Day 74: Worked on priority piece, full swing for about an hour this evening after dinner. Really need to exaggerate “hitting to right field feel” more than I think to produce slight push draw ball flight.

      Cobra 3D Printed Irons

      By mchepp ·

      I searched around but didn’t see any other threads on this so I’ll put it here. I work in the laser industry and one of the applications has been additive manufacturing. The main market for the past 10 years has been SpaceX and the space industry and some medical applications. The new one I saw this week is 3D printing irons. Cobra and the company that they are using is marketing these irons pretty aggressively.  In talking with the folks in the booth at the trade show, the claim is that they can gain strength but reduce the weight to put it exactly where they want. The print of the iron is very cool. Mostly everything behind the face is a thin metal lattice and then in the heal and toe is a block of tungsten for weight.  I am old enough to remember the arguments about forged versus cast irons. I wonder if folks here will pay a bit more to get 3D printed irons.  They have a booth here where you can hit them but I hate lines and the line to do it is always long. I go again tomorrow, and if the line isn’t too long I’ll give it a try and report back.    Here are some pictures (I had some trouble uploading, I’ll try later)
