Kevin's achievements--

Broke par.

Albatross.

I've won a lot of tournaments, but I haven't won a real one in a long time.  I think I'll hold off on that one as a goal to get in the future.

I've broken 100 many times, but I don't want a badge for that...especially considering how often I'm still on the wrong side of the 100 mark. I'll post back when I break 90 for the first time. 

too bad there's no badge for eagle putts! Had some of those, but none have dropped. 

Yours in earnest, Jason.

This is a good idea, anything to let other folks have an idea of where you are coming from!

One hole in one, as a beginner playing with my mom haha. It never got off the ground but it went in.

Several eagles over the years, most recently probably 10 years ago.

Won the low gross stroke play club championship at my club after college in 1982. Best win by far.

Shot under par last in 1982. Been a while, getting old is bitch. There's always hope though...no not really

    • Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often. 
    • So I think it's that they can't just bend the shaft or hosel to get it to a new lie angle. They adjust that and it changes the weighting, so they have to then adjust all the weights to get it balanced again. I get the impression that it's a bit of an iterative process and they do it all in the US, so they're paying US labor costs to build it and make it work how it's supposed to. Whether you believe in the tech or not, I think that's a true statement.
    • Ah, the old EE in the backswing move. Chest going back and staying down doesn't help.
    • Extremely outward path with a very closed club face. Maybe unless you have a stupidly weak grip, like right hand way over top, I don't think the grip is necessary highly correlated to this.
