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

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

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...

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

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.

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

      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.
