See how the path is going to be more of a fade path though? This ties into the slightly laid off feel we’ve had you do to this point.

Interesting.. didn't even notice. Makes sense though. Thanks.

Few minutes today. Lost couple of weeks for work and travel. Still doesn't seem like I am getting to the widest. FEELS wide as heck.

It's not as wide as it could be because it goes out too much early, which then makes it go "around" more.

Shoulders turn steeper, hands go more straight back to start. Right elbow goes away from your ribs, not behind toward your shirt seam.

Ahh yes, that is correct! It feels like the whole hands-arms-club unit gets dynamically sucked 'into' me no matter how much I try to keep it away at the top and into transition.

It makes sense. Admittedly hard habit to break but at least I know now. Thanks.

Super plush lie chipping practice in the backyard this morning. It's like eating dessert for breakfast. Total guilty pleasure and no nutritional value.. 😂

Sorry about the darkness, #wiferules. Same attempt - hands straight back to get wide at top.

@GolfLug, by Sunday… a video of you with massive

As I said, days 2, 3, 19, and 20.

Yeah, so did day 19 drill with an imaginary band to help feel hand path A1-A2.

What differences do you see here?

Look at the right elbow.

W-I-D-T-H, man. You can't get enough. YOU can't get enough.

I think I am starting to understand the need for hand depth to gain width.

Kinda, but kinda the opposite too.

If you push your hands "out" early, they'll "suck in" late and fold/collapse.

If you just turn (ideally on a steeper angle with your shoulders), and lift, and fold barely… they'll be plenty wide and deep enough.

I have played with this push-out early then suck in collapse loopy move for so long, the Mylan coating on my brain pathways is like 40 years old veneer on hardwood.

I really need a few good rounds at some point with this move then I can get some trust and re-Mylan for good. I have literally been losing all context half way through the downswing and jump on the ball abandoning all trust. Scores are a bit comical but I understand where we need to go (I said 'we', hah). Need to survive the lows this year. Digging deep for patience.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
