Happy Birthday @mcanadiens! :beer:

Thank you. ... It's a gray day, but very warm. Alas I'm stuck at my desk all day. ... However it's supposed to be 55 and dry on Saturday. Those golf balls won't know what hit them.

I've had a very busy start to 2017 which has seen me on the road more than at home.  Because of that, we celebrated most of the week since I was close enough to drive home all week.  Went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner and drinks on Wednesday... visited a VERY country bar on Friday to watch some midget wrestling... and I played a bunch between Thursday and yesterday.  

Today was spent here with my wife and kids enjoying some down time before I head to Nashville tomorrow.

Thanks! After turning 71 on Tuesday, I was fortunate enough to shoot my age (actually shot 68) on Thursday. I guess there really is still hope. :-)

That's a good idea.

What should the award look like? A calendar? A birthday cake with a lot of candles on it? Note that most of the awards are really simple looking icons.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.

      Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.

      Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
