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

Off to the course for a bucket of balls for iron work, the 4 man "best ball". Not my favorite format. Something I need to work on because I like playing my own ball.

15 to 20 minutes mapping my swing and tempo work in front of a mirror. The first part I was working on A1 to 4 and looking at my hip turn to make sure I wasn't sliding back at all. The last part was tempo.

Worked on my downswing piece. Struggle a bit with my early extending issue. It got better when I coupled staying tilted towards the ball more with the right shoulder. I was finally able to take some turf.

Worked on pitching and putting. Getting really good around the green now.

Still struggle with lining up for left to right putts.

Played 9 holes, practiced my short game a lot. Shot 39 out of par 32 @ Billerica Country club back tees front 9 with 2 doubles, 3 bogey. Mostly short game errors. Felt happy that I only hit trees once on this super narrow course.

More reading of LSW. Like the phrase "The one great shot is an anomaly". I think I can do it, but can I really do it? :-(

      Water in Bunker

      By iacas ·

      You’ve yet to propose anything else. And yet it was, and the rules tell you how to deal with it. Your question has been answered. The Committee can declare them GUR. I disagree with your assessment of common sense. 😀 And yet they didn’t really change this one. Looks like this is about wrapped up? “That Rule is So Unfair!” A Rules Geek’s Generalized Guide to Hot Takes and Overreactions | Rules Geeks I apologize for the length of this post.

      Water in Bunker

      By anaveragehacker ·

      When you are penalized for hitting into the sand trap the penalty is having to hit it out of the sand, not out of three inches of water. A sand trap is not the same as a water hazard. A sand trap is not supposed to be under water. It is a unique condition caused  by weather and poor drainage. Most local leagues like ours allow the free drop in this type of situation, as long as there is no area in the bunker to legally drop. This is what I’m talking about, sometimes the official rules of golf don’t align with common sense. That’s why they are finally starting to change them. For example, when wind blows your ball off the green. That was a stupid rule. People being able to call the tv network to say they saw a players ball move. That was a stupid rule. I’m just saying, these are rules made up a long time ago, and it’s time to modernize them.

      Consider it another way: normally, it's a two-stroke penalty to move your ball out of a bunker (unplayable). The ACC reduces it to just one.

      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??

      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.
