Another 20 odd minutes in the nets. Working on sliding the hips from transition to past impact, as well as reviewing the centered pivot.

Went to the range. Did 50% backswing piece, and 50% downswing piece. I group together the golf balls into groups of four. Then I would do 4 practice moves per ball. Each group was spent on one of my pieces. So It would be 4 balls spent on backswing, then 4 balls spent on downswing.

Just spent 10 minutes practising short pitch swings on an old rug in the house. I really need to get some foam balls that I can smack around indoors.

Got out of work later than I would have liked so didn't get to go to the course to do some practice like I would have liked so did some putting practice indoors working on bead.

Spent 5 mins on my mapping drill while out with the dog tonight. I'm working on less extention with my right arm after impact. When I have to much extention I pull my head forward and don't get my hips tucked.

I spent 10-20 mins hitting practice balls in the yard.  I worked on my turn.  I also tried feeling my hands drop in the doqn swing instead of swinging over the the plane. I did a complete practice swing before hitting each ball.  I prob hit 15-20ish shots.

      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.
