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? :-(

      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.
