I hit a medium bucket for an hour today. I focused on my hip turn during takeaway and getting my weight forward on the downswing.

Small bucket (with balls) at the range, slowing down enough to feel the "play" in transition.

5 minutes this morning with the driver working on full swing mechanics with a particular focus on getting my hips and weight forward while keeping my head back.  Did this by stopping at A4 and then stopping again at A6 and then finishing the swing slowly.

15 minutes at the gym mapping my swing.  I've got A1 to A4 down per my last Evolvr lesson and A5 and 6 are looking better.  Now I am working on the finish again.  I need to get my hips and shoulders to rotate with my arms from A6 to A9.

Oh, I'll try and remember to take a look as it appears you and I are working on similar things.

Wanted to go to the range, but the weather wasn't going to cooperate. So, indoor chipping and pitching instead.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
