8/3:  shoulder stretches/exercises; more 4-8 ft putts.  It feels good to consistently sink them from 6+ ft, at least indoors. :-D

About 15 minutes of putting practice this evening. 3-8 foot putts mostly. Scattered balls around the hole in various locations and just spent time focusing on a good line with each shot.

Just 5 minutes of mirror work before my workout. I have a little soreness in my left elbow, so I took it easy.

Raining outside, so just 5-10 minutes of short putts on the carpet in the hallway and a few minutes of mirror-work checking the hip turn/sway, and trying to focus on the feel at the top of the backswing after a proper turn with good tilt.

8/4:  rain washed out plans for hitting a bucket of balls this afternoon; more putting practice indoors.  I think I realized that my grip pressure was too much, causing some shakiness on the takeaway.

Range trip tomorrow, if the weather cooperates.

Nothing yesterday. My left elbow is sore for some reason, so I am giving it a rest for a couple of days.

Spent about 15 minutes outside rehearsing slow backswings a few times and then taking an easy swing-full shot with my lob wedge. Focusing on Key #1 mainly, and stopping at the top to feel turn in my hips and check for sway to the right.

54°: OK

58° in Fall CrEek.... My 58° is up for sale first $25 takes it...

Putter: OK

I really chipped and pitched OK. Except on Number 12....I hit a great drive... I even hit a great 4-wood second shot... I tried to get a 20 yard pitch too perfect... with a semi-holeable eagle pitch... Skulled it onto the senior tee on Number 13. Up against the rough... No green to work with... Needless to say I didn't get enough of it... I ended up turning a certain par into a double when if I played sort of safe... I probably make birdie. I just stink right now at times. I shot 39 last Sunday I couldn't replicate it... I'm having trouble even hitting irons straight. WTH????

Mirror work w/ "wall drill", focusing on hip turn. Then 10-20 minutes of slow backswings and easy through-swings outside with same focus. Then a few full shots just for fun. :)

    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting. 
    • Day 96 (18 Mar 24) - Continued work with the Divot Board with the GW and hard foam balls.  Focused on small target/small miss…setup to hit target about 30yds out - success if it hit within 6’ circle of target, fail if outside.  Had decent success averaging about 3 out of 4 (hitting in groups of four).  
    • Wordle 1,003 3/6 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩   felt a little like Wyndham when the first three green and I began the fist pump…
    • I'm relieved someone finally defined hiking. I was giddy when I saw these new TPI videos a day or so after they dropped. Very easy to understand the problem and solution the way they have presented it. Been working on fixing this for about a year and a half now. It's nice to be able to call it something so communication becomes easy.  I was working on more lateral and up too, but just having someone define it clearly in video form was so helpful for me to continue confidently with what I thought was wrong and how I had to fix it.  My conceptual error here was just trying to rotate like a tour pro but without including the necessary forward pressure/weight shift associated with enough lateral and upward motion of the pelvis.  This video is great too, as is Greg Rose.
    • Day 2.    couple mins of rolling putts end over end.    10 mins of Slow, mirror work, working on starting the downswing and impact wrist positions. Hit a couple balls into the net after.    Then finished with a couple chips to see if I could repeat what I worked on yesterday.
