[travisv]

Practiced my pitching technique today.

Hit a decent amount of balls today making 3/4 fast (feel) swings to speed up my swing. Practice was 3 balls with a 3/4 swing, then 1 full swing.

I'm on vacation this week and have missed few days on purpose to let my body heal. I've been having trouble with my knees, left ankle and left shoulder and the rest is helping. I may hit into a net today though or play a par 3 course with my wife, friend and his son. No badge this month, but I'm ok with that.

10 minutes mirror work. played 15 and a half holes and hit a bucket starting at 4:30am this morning. 3.5 hours today. . .of play and practice.

This shorter swing had given me two of the longest drives that made the fairway I've made this year. They were both in the 290 range according to my phone GPS. Average was not nearly that high as I sliced a few as well. The funny thing is that I was getting used to hitting 235 carries on the driving range. The I blasted these two drives today. Thanks @mvmac .

This practice is not only making me stronger, but I seem to be hitting with what feel like a lot less effort. Thanks, @iacas . Your forcing me to practice on the range more has really improved my game. (Of course I practiced a bit too much on a few days.)

Erik really knows his stuff. I was actually thinking about this while walking up to a tee this morning.

7/8/15: 10 minutes of fast arm swings in front of a mirror.

[Unkynd]

Went to the range and hit about 30 balls. Took about an hour. Feel like I'm getting in the right position at the top, but the transition isn't right. Focused on that during the session today.

[No Mulligans]

15 minutes in backyard (mat and net), key 1 and 2

[Slowcelica]

Did the closed face drill outside with a club.

[Hatchman]

A little sand work today. Up slope, down, and long.

[AbsoluteTruths]

Worked on sequencing my backswing and getting a full turn.

[Shindig]

30 balls at the range today after work, and some putting. The range especially is feeling fantastic.

[Jakester23]

Worked on my new evolvr drill in the yard for 10 mins then hit 4 balls using my water bottle drill. I can do the drill no problem half swing or even 3/4 but full is going to take some time. The contact is great when I get this right.

Finally read through the terminology page on this site. Took more than 5 minutes doing it.

BTW, what's "mapping" a swing?

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

[Sassafrass]

5 mins on shoulder turns.  I focused on keeping my head still.

[shalabe]

20 minutes dry swings working on the right arm staying in front.

[travisv]

Hit a bucket at the range today working on laying the shaft down on the downswing.

[tnull]

Weekly golf lesson.  Played 9 holes after that.  Golf lesson went well, didn't hit well on the course.
