"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge (June 2015)

[Ernest Jones]

I'm already out, but I'll post anyway. It's good motivation. 10 minutes of slow mapping with a 9iron and 5 minutes filming some 3/4 swings. Real swings are starting to look more like mapping swings.

Half swings again ... lots of half swings! Moving everything forward.

Slow swings...half swings. Shortening the swing definitely seems to help with the right elbow location.

Did my 5 minutes this morning working on the full swing by trying different clubs and looking in the mirror to see what differences there were at A4, A6, and A8.

Hit balls and played a few holes. Playing in a 27 hole tournament tomorrow.

Practiced this drill for 30 minutes. I have no feel right now on my putts so I'm trying to get to the point where I know what different distances feel like. Then in theory I can focus more on the line and actually try to hole putts outside of 10 feet.

Played 9 at a new course to me.  Mountain View in Santa Paula, CA.  Played pretty well.  Pushed a couple of drives, but mostly power fade.  Concentrated on doing the things I have been working on in practice.  Hip shift and turn, soft arms.  Short game was great.  Hit three LW to within gimme distance from 40 yds and in.

Interesting drill.

5 minutes slow swing using the reflection in the airplane window. Did some yoga/tai chi like drill swings with empty hands.

[Shindig]

Did putting drills while waiting for a friend to get to the course we played today. I also did some warming up and played 18, but the only real practice was the putting drills. Today's round was more social, although I still managed a 16.x differential on a tough course, so I'm happy. :-)

6/13/15: Putted for 10 minutes this morning... Did the 4-8-12 drill... Getting pretty good from inside 15 feet

[RFKFREAK]

I'm not sure this counts but did strength training at the gym this afternoon.

To play it safe, I also did about 10 minutes when I got home practicing full swing mechanics with my 6I.

[Huddo]

90 minutes at the range on shallower downswing plane and booming the driver......great fun!

[Slowcelica]

Practiced transition outside with a club.

Busy day. 5 mins mirror work inside, focusing on set-up and the takeaway.

[boogielicious]

Spent about 45 minutes to an hour working on my swing and filming.

[Lihu]

5 minute drills, but without mirror.

It took 1 whole bucket to get my swing back. Then I struggled to hit my 6i to the 180 flag with another bucket of balls. Only got a few to roll past and the rest just piddled around the distance to the pin. Gone back to hitting the MP-32s. My 7i distance is reasonable (the same as the 6i, which sucks).

Got my Evolvr feedback today!!! Worked on moving my right hip up and not moving my head downward ... still working on not bringing the club face back so closed
