Played a quick nine at lunch yesterday. We've lucked out with good December weather.

Played a decent round. No snowmen! Practiced for about an hour and a half on the range. Balls are consistently shorter (20 yards on the drives) on the range with cold and wet balls versus the pro-v1 I

Worked on my putting today in the living room. Mainly focusing on my alignment as I had been lining up left. It feels now that Im aiming way right but Im actually pretty square.

Rotation drills. Played a quick 18 on a par 3 course for $6.50 with a free drink. Nice! Not as good a deal as the $11/round with cart and drink, though. Joined another players club. . .

Was at home for lunch today and did my 5 minutes and felt as though a light bulb went on as far as the follow through.  It was a video @mvmac and @iacas did where you have your belt buckle (they called it showing your back signal) pointing in the air.

 

My 5 minutes today consisted of doing this drill very slowly to emphasise the correct motion in the follow through.

5 minutes of this again.  I was hoping to get to the range and play but Christmas time is not good for finding 4 hours to play golf.  Maybe tomorrow, haha.

Hip rotation drills, and finished entering the score from yesterday. 22 hour round? :-D

Some range work before it started to rain, then went home to bake a cake with my daughter. . .

Hip rotation drills. Keeping the feel, and trying to add some more oomph.

Played a few holes at lunch in pretty heavy wind.

Hit the range today and did nothing but hit balls for the first time in a month or more. Didnt work on anything. Made sure I focused on my target and PSR. Actually hit the ball pretty good.

More belt buckle in the sky today but this time I decided to do it with the driver even though it was quite dicey since my living room has a tree in it, haha.   At least the tree forced me to swing slowly rather than try and do a swing at full speed.

Got hit by a car (while I was in my car), and was checking to see if I could still rotate freely. $600 damage to my vehicle, but still able to somewhat swing.

Practiced hip rotations and full shoulder rotations. Went to the range and hit a lot of crappy balls until I realized that I was picking up my head. I straightened out the spin purposefully and the pain was nearly gone and I was able to swing pretty decently. Contact was better, but still had a few thin shots.

Will rest up the neck and practice again tomorrow. . .

Worked on the Hogan-like waggle seeing if I could get it to reconcile with the angle of the arms and hands hanging naturally....specifically the lead hand.....and then get that to reconcile with  the right hand position on the cover of his book ....went well...will check it tomorrow.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Zeph ·

      First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
