Finished reading through it last night, but I think I need to read it another 3 or 4 times.

Two existing problems that exist need to be resolved:

1) An anchored back foot, I seriously need to drill in Key 2. Still working on the drills Mike gave me a month ago.

2) Ball striking. Okay, I hit better than before, but still not consistent enough. Probably because of 1).

More of my iron shots are transferred barely to okay, my woods are back (practice swings are okay), my hybrids are just adequate.

Yesterday, I played in the final day of a business golf event, played over the last few months. I tried to imply some of the aspects of the book. But I have to regret saying my focus was a bit off. I didn't play that great, especially the first 9. The second nine matched my playing hcp which was great.

What I didn't do well was noticing the hazardous elements on the fairway more , how should I say, with better notice. I was just focussing on the middle of the fw, and that was it. Playing along, I started to open my eyes more (where were the bunkers, o.o.b., trees etc.). Furthermore, I took a much sharper look when attacking the greens, GIR versus N-GIR. What I tried to do was aiming to the mid green instead of to the pin. It worked very well in for two holes which I will use as an example.

A long par 3 (which personally I feel is a sign of an architect whit little imagination), roughly 215 yards, slightly up against the wind. Surrounded by trees, left in front a bunker, rough everywhere, but right front a nice platform. Braveheart here gripped his 3w a bit shorter and played a fade of the bunker. I landed N-gir onto the platform, chipped it closely and came of with par.

Second. I had a shot to the pin around 125 yards, flag tucked right, bunker on the right and high rough. I forced myself to ignore the flag although I had good vision. I went to the cente of the green, landed pin high of around8 yards. My playing partner, who had a longer shot of around 150 yards and went for the flag. He was lucky to found his ball near bushes behind the bunker, leaving himself a difficult chip over the bunker. He made bogey, which was pretty good because he could easily lost his ball or chipped in the bunker etc.. I missed my birdie about a whisker, and made solid par.

Lot to win, just have to train myself and loose the bad habits of playing a hole to casual.

So my girlfriend's car was broken into last week and my bag was stolen and in the bag was my book. I'm sure this has been asked already but how can I go about buying another copy?

Unless of course you were hoping for a freebie. :whistle:

It didn't take me long to find the website and I don't even have a copy. You did.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I bought the book when they did the indiegogo campaign and for a while people had to buy via PayPal so I wasn't sure what the proper procedure was. Considering I specifically stated that I was looking to buy another copy, I think there's little ambiguity in what I meant.

Here's a pretty good interview with Geoff Ogilvy in Golf Digest:

http://www.golfdigest.com/magazine/2014-12/my-shot-geoff-ogilvy

I'll quote the interesting, relevant bit:

PETER FOWLER, an outstanding Australian golfer who now plays the European Senior Tour, phoned the great Peter Thomson for advice in the early 1980s. Fowler was struggling to break through, and he asked Thomson, a five-time British Open champion, if he had any insight on what to do to get better. With barely a pause, Thomson said, "Shoot lower scores," and hung up. Fowler was crestfallen at first, but then he started to see the genius in the great Thomson's words. It was as if Thomson were saying, "There's a ball and a hole. Stop getting in your own way. Stop making it so hard. Get on with it. Just do better."

    • Thanks. I hope I do but I think I'm going to get stuck at 98 as two of the remainder tracks are notoriously difficult get on.   I have Turnberry, Troon, Skibo Castle, Ardfin and Crail Craighead left. I have a round at Turnberry booked in for later this year. Troon is accessible but the green fee is extortionate (compared to what we are used to) so I may go for that in 2027. Crail Craighead is easy enough through member guest sign on's so won't be an issue.  Skibo Castle is a private, exclusive members club who do not allow guests at all full stop. You have to know a member, who are very rare and secretive (often celebrities, like Harry Styles or other worldwide business types for example, who are supposedly members). So it is basically impossible and I am likely to be stuck with this one. Ardfin whilst bookable for the average joe - is bordering on extortion and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to afford it. You have to stay over at their 'hotel' and you have to book it out for X amount of people for at least two days and it costs upwards of 15-20k. Even if you divide that by say 12 players it's still far too much money unfortunately. With a bit of luck at somepoint in the future they may introduce a day rate, they had one a few years ago for 500 (GBP).  Fingers crossed however. I managed to get on the exclusive Loch Lomond easier than I thought it would be!
    • Due to kidney issues I drink a lot of water. Usually about 100+ oz a day. As you all know, water is boring. So on days I am at the gym or playing golf I try adding electrolyte powder to the water. Unfortunately I just buy what I can find at the store. Either Propel or Liquid IV. Both are sugar free and only have 500MG of sodium. Any one else find a decent electrolyte powder they can recommend? Thanks for any assistance.
