8/28/15: Got to work this morning and worked on my turn... If anyone is interested anyway... I was gonna do a 2015 City Championship live blog tomorrow...

[Slowcelica]

Played 18 today worked on my putting before the round. Not that it helped, not a good day putting!

[AbsoluteTruths]

Did about 15 mins of slow to medium speed swing in back yard with driver and 7i.

[isukgolf]

Outside- full swings, tried focusing on a dimple... Seemed to work well if I led with my hips.

[Sassafrass]

5-10 mins of pushing my office chair around.  Focused on moving my weight forward while keeping my head steady.

[tnull]

Putting on my 36" ruler board.  Keep the follow through on line.  Shipping with foam balls indoors.  Hit the spot you want the ball to land on the green.

[Unkynd]

Ranged a bit and then played 18 holes.  Ball striking is coming along and the putting wasn't awful today.

[Lihu]

More alignment drills, and more slow swings using the hips to originate the swing.

8/29/15: Played the qualifying round of the 2015 Ithaca City Golf Championship today... Shot 90... Played very well the first 13 or so holes... Actually didn't make a double bogey until the 12th, because I got stupid with a 240 yard 3-wood second on the par 5 when I should of "laid up", and left a pitch on in 4 and 3-putted, triple at 14... After a perfect drive... Finished the last 7 double, bogey, triple, par, double, bogey, double, after a par, bogey start on the back, 42 out 48 in... Match play tomorrow, which is fun hopefully I can win my match and go get cremed on Saturday next week...

Practiced for about an hour working on my new priority piece. I'm still not there yet as the video showed.

[Unkynd]

Played 18 today and broke 80. Only chipped before the round, not putting. Putter was on fire on the course.

[Slowcelica]

Hit around 20 balls today doing the closed face drill, focusing on the right elbow not extending so early. I know I'm making progress because I either hit the ball straight or a slight draw yesterday when I played. Only a few fades other than driver, which even that went straight down the middle for the most part.

[AbsoluteTruths]

Did a total of about 20 mins at home and in the office working on shifting weight and rhythm.

[Sassafrass]

Slow swings in the yard working on getting weight forward and keeping my right tricept against my rib cage.

[isukgolf]

Worked outside with key 2 ... Had a good session and hit the ball good

[tnull]

Indoor swings.Half swings head still, brush the carpet. Full swings same thing.

[Lihu]

Putting drills indoor. Trying to get a smoother stroke. Muscles too broken down to hit. Need a recovery day.
