I've  been focusing way more on easy tempo & hitting fairways ... a good drive for me is 240-250.

It's not really though, you know you hit it 300 - 310 yards just like everyone else on the internet ;)

I don't use a yardage card.  IMO.....the conditions for the shot is everything.   I may be in the rough with a jumpy lie and use 8-iron from 180yds.  I may use that same club later in the day for a 145yd shot.   It just depends on the shot, the lie, and the conditions for that shot.  I personally think taping yardages to wedges like in that photo is very funny...LOL...I'd never be seen carrying wedges with a bunch of stickers with yardages taped to them.

Hahaha.....it looks like advice taken from a "golfing for dummies" book or something to that effect.  IMO

When it comes to hitting onto a green...............closer is better.  I don't mind half shots in the least.   I'll take a 40-50-60-70yd pitch over a full sand/lob wedge from 90-100yds all day long.  On average....the closer I am to the green, the closer the result will be in proximity to the pin.

If somebody wants to challenge me to a closest to the pin contest and my competitor must play a full shot from 100yds and I get to play a pitch from 50yds.......I'll take that bet all day long!! LOL

      Yes, because you have lifted to like 120° without bending the left elbow. So when you turn and the left elbow bends… it bends in such a way that you then lower your left humerus and pull the club around you.

      Day 3 (23 Jun 26) - Grandson put in to play this morning when he arrived at the house.  He wanted to play a full 18 from the "purple" tees (these are custom tees that play shorter than our gold but longer than the red) in a best (super) ball duet.  Was a great day working on course management - seeing him play well (for a 10yr old) - for example, hole 12 has a temp green about 100 yds from the tee box, he hits a solid 8i to 4' pin high and nails a birdie putt.  Could have never been prouder.  These are the moments grandfathers dream of - and hopefully the memories he will recall when his day comes to be Paw-paw for his grandson....may the game live on.

      Posted a couple swings here. I think my attempt to blend the movement still results in a more “around” back swing?
