Took my 7 year old and 11 year old to the club for a round.  This was right at the turn.  I decided to take pictures.  I caught this guy at the top, I don't know about you guys, but seeing this make me a proud Papa.  Look at that form.  He's going to be better than me...part of that kills me and part of it makes me the happiest man on earth because I know that I taught him how to play and, if he stays with it, he will have a swing for a lifetime.  He only hits it about 150 from the tee, but to he and I, it's a least a mile long and straight as an arrow.  Happy Father's Day, gents.

Last year he might hit the ball 80 yards...He's a baseball player at heart, so he is learning how to pivot for power instead of slinging his arms.  So he genuinely will poke one to about 150, but it would be a dry fairway / humid day like yesterday for that to happen.  His drives are about 20 feet high and they roll forever.

    • Day 446 - 2025-12-20 Woke up early and got some swings in before teaching putting all day. Looking forward to doing the same tomorrow.
    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls.
