I asked Mike about that last week. He said "Going through the swing or what I'm working on very slowly."

Mirror work, going to a range to get that hip rotation at start.

Daily Journal: Edison, NJ: deprived of usual 5:00am range time. Starvation imminent. Need. . .range. . .balls. . . Seriously, nothing opens early here on Saturday morning? @Billchao, I'm within 8 miles of Rutgers, let's try to get a round in together. We're going NYC a couple days, but should have some time. . .

Okay, got my bucket in. Happy that I was able to focus on the hip motion while still making contact with the ball. Focused more on the sequencing. Have to train the right swing sequence first.

Just got in from the neighbors course. Evening tee box work, until the wind, lightening and rain came. Was having fun until then with the young champion players who invited me to join them. Glad to be back in the saddle.

Practiced drinking on the course to forget about how bad my game was. Did it for a lot more than five minutes, too, so I really felt like I made a lot of progress.

Did 20 minutes of drill swings with a PW, then hit a bucket early this morning. Went to Hyatt Hills on recommendation by Bill Chao. They open at 6:00am sharp!

      Water in Bunker

      By klineka ·

      No, hitting into a hazard that is supposed to be avoided and is designed to be penalizing is not the same as hitting it into the middle of the fairway.   You are penalized because you hit it into a hazard. Based on your logic let's say you hit it into a red staked penalty area and you could normally play it but it's in temporary casual water from rain. Would you expect a free drop from there too??

      Water in Bunker

      By iacas ·

      They could have declared it GUR, sure. It is. It's temporary water, and as I said before, an abnormal course condition (ACC). That's what rule 16 is about — ACCs. No, a bunker ≠ the middle of the fairway. You are penalized because you hit it into a bunker. As for the rest… let's stick to the topic. Yep.

      It's not dumb. It's dumb to randomly allow a free drop that provides an advantage you don't deserve. And your committee had the option of determining it GUR. Did you talk to them?

      Water in Bunker

      By anaveragehacker ·

      A sand trap is not supposed to have 3 inches of water in it. To me that’s temporary, casual water. Just like if your ball lands in a deep rain puddle in the middle of the fairway. I would have gladly hit out of any spot in that bunker. I understand that it’s a different rule. I just think it’s a dumb rule. You are penalized because it rained.  Here’s what I think is the dumbest rule in golf, and all sports for that matter - professionals playing for millions of dollars in a tournament have to carry around a little pencil and scorecard to keep their score and sign it, when there are big scoreboards all over the course and on tv. Can you imagine the Knicks losing because they didn’t count their score correctly? Like I said, I love the game, but it’s time to move into the 21st century already.
