My Swing (Lloyd Martinez)

[Lloyd Martinez]

I played a round this weekend.  Good news first, of the 5 Par 3's I made par on 4 of them.  I doubled the last (200 yds), but it was because of 3 putts and not the approach/chip on within 10 feet.  The bad news is that I only hit the 8i or higher well (the same clubs I have swung during my lessons).  More good news, not one time during the round did I shank/slice the ball (the focus of my lessons initially).

Next steps:

Using the tools from my lessons, I need to practice with longer irons/woods/driver over the next few weeks.  I really feel that I can score lower if I am within ~150 yards on my approach vs. playing a 6i/7i off of the tee to ~225+ and splitting the rest of the hole with my 9i-AW depending on how well I hit the tee shot.

Happy birthday, man. Haven't seen you in a while- hoping all is good there. As I recall, you were making some progress. Cheers.
