Went to the short game area again. Worked on really getting my Distance Wedge keys in. A good sign was I was hitting them very flighted with a shallow divot. Also, the swing felt very effortless for the distance. Then I worked on some pitching as well.

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

Almost missed today, woke up late. Too much of touring NYC, I guess. Practiced some slow hip turns, then shortening the swing.

Took a lesson yesterday so had plenty to work on today. Primarily focused on keeping the club from getting inside on the takeaway. It's a move I've struggled with since I started this game. Hit 30 balls and then played 21 chipping and putting.

Practice my priority pieces with a tripod and a driveway stick. Was surprised to see myself automatically doing the first priority piece without thinking about it.

Did the "chair turn" thing ... I like the exercise, helps to keep center turning ...

Played 9 holes.

Tee Shots: B, maybe only a two solid drives, but the misses were acceptable.

Approach Shots: Terrible. Never really felt comfortable over the ball in my set up. Still struggling to get that right side downswing piece right with the irons. Downswing feels rushed and fast.

Distance Wedges: My practice didn't translate to the course. I didn't do my downswing piece enough.

Pitching: Much much better. I am feeling really comfortable around the greens.

Putting: Much better. Stopped taking so long over the short putts and it helped out.

Best shot of the night: Last drive of the night. Hit a straight shot that faded maybe 5 yards. I finally felt the difference between what I was doing and what I need to do. I just need to do it more often.

      Water in Bunker

      Could course committee have an MLR option to declare this bunker GUR?

      Water in Bunker

      By iacas ·

      Sorry, I will disagree. You got a penalty because you hit it somewhere and didn't want to play it from there. Bunkers are not the general area. If you had hit it into temporary water in the general area, you'd be entitled to relief. You hit it into a hazard, a bunker. Why should you get free relief when you hit it into a bunker? If someone else hit it into a different part of the bunker, without water, they'd not get a drop for free out of the bunker. Heck, it'd cost them two strokes if they didn't have an ACC and wanted to drop it out of the bunker.

      Water in Bunker

      By anaveragehacker ·

      I love golf, but we have some really dumb rules. Like this one, you get a penalty stroke because it rained.

      Water in Bunker

      By iacas ·

      No. If there was a place no closer to the hole that afforded some relief, you could have dropped there. If you were truly as far away from the hole as you could, in the "back" of the bunker, then… your options were basically to play it as it lies (lied? lay?) or take the penalty stroke and drop behind the bunker (keeping the point where the ball was between your drop and the hole).
