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

10 mins working in my living room on my putting. I have a tendency on longer putts to rush my backswing so my tempo is off. I've found that if I take the putter back slower I can control the pace a lot better.

The up and down challenge (18 different shots)... Scored 43... Still gotta work on it a little, would like to get it down to the high 30s at worst...

Erik, have you ever played this game for your greenside practice?

I usually like to play it against a friend - closest to the hole, or putting it out. First to three up wins.

Hit a large bucket at the range. Steep to shallow move is coming along alright. Steepening the shoulder plane is a big part of it for me it seems.

Putting was the practice today. More practice on bead, although, I could use help on all aspects of putting.

Today I went to the range and worked on hitting a draw again.  I used the gate drill.  Most of my shots were pushes.  The ball would land 5-10 yards left of my target.

For the last 5-10 shots I used my normal swing.  My ball's flight had a little bit of a draw to it.

      Day 303 - Long travel day, so just some mirror swings. Still trying to find that special combination that doesn’t induce hip pain.

      ..maybe 1 shot HC change might be a good starting point..

      2-man Ambrose V 1-man Playing Best of 2 Balls

      By trapper2000 ·

      Yeah, I have a similar view. I was in the team of 2 and we got down 5 after 5. Get 1 pt if win the hole - whatever that game is called. We lost it 3 down with 2 to play so almost saved it. After the first hole when the single did a putt, then dropped a second ball, made a slight adjustment and sunk it, we thought it wasn't right. We couldn't do anything with handicaps etc so we just made them wait between putts - usually just one of us to putt. We were a 23 and 25 handicappers (probably playing to about 28) and the single was a 16 handicapper, but somehow had a HC of 20 (so that is 1 HC pt already). In terms of making it fair, and changing HC (HC1 + HC2 / 4), I think maybe adding 2 HCs to the double (or taking 2 HC off the single (after the adding and div by 4) might make it fair. Also maybe making a rule that the single couldn't change clubs for the second hit. Hard to say from that one game but possibly: - 2 shot HC adding - can't change clubs for second shot - need to have other team putt in between their 2 putts   Not sure. Do you think you'd still win or have these rules made it unfair the other way? Cheers for thoughts..

      In that case I double down on my comments - I'll take the single guy and I know if I'm in that match against two similar players I'm pretty confident that I'm the favorite.
