May 28 -

Practiced mirror drills using the glass in my office door. Worked on shoulder rotation and maintaining spinal tilt. I seem to tense up my right shoulder sometimes on takeaway, which restricts extension and may contribute to left pulls.

Focus, connect and follow through!

Played 9 holes not to the benefit of my golf swing.

Went to the range afterwards. Can do my downswing drills, but not finding any contact with a full swing from address. Slower, shortened backswing, just hitting clanky, scoopy push hooks.

Worked on my mapping drill for 10 mins.  Then took some video of my drill and full swing for evolvr.  Im certain this 5 mins a day has helped me improve I can't say thanks enough. :beer::dance:

Worked on weight forward and hip slide with rotation.  Worked on good balance, weight over middle of feet, not shifting forward to the balls of my feet.  Good tempo, soft arms.  15 minutes total.

This morning, I took advantage of CoD's relatively empty short game area to practice putting after missing far more makeable ones than I should have over the past several rounds, plus realizing that I've been neglecting putting practice. I did the 4' 8' 12' drill for about half an hour (the first 15 minutes were spent on them in isolation, followed by the drill described in LSW).

Maybe an hour in my garage filming my address position to upload to Evolvr. Stance damn ugly last time. Hoping the pro agrees I've made some progress and that it's just me that's ugly now. Anyone interested, check out my "My Swing" thread. I'd love to hear comments/thoughts. Thanks, TST.

Managed to sneak out a bit early from work for 9 holes yesterday. Swinging well with a fairly uneventful 39.

Sick as a dog but still got my 5 minutes in this morning.  More of my full swing practice.  I'm not sure how much good it did, though, since I'm feeling lethargic today.  Getting sick sucks.

5 minutes in the office.  Working on feels for right elbow on backswing and downswing.

    • 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.
