Played 18 holes with the old man today at Roy Kizer (par 71, 6412 yards, 70 rating, 117 slope). Even broke my personal best, shot a 76 (+5). 14/18 or 78% FIR, 11/18 or 61% GIR, 34 putts or 1.89 putts/hole, 1 birdie, 4 bogeys, 1 double, 12 pars. What a day that was, had a great round, we were grouped with some new players, but they were nice as can be so it was all fun. Now tomorrow it's off to Falconhead!

It has paid off. I finally met my goal of making it, at least temporarily, to a single digit...made it to a 9.7 as of this morning's revision

Called away on business - so failed to practice yesterday, and can't see myself getting any in today or tomorrow.  Unless someone can recommend some "mental" or "visualisation" drills that will keep me in the game, I'm stuck!

See if you can't even sneak of to your local athletic retailer and use the hitting room or putting green. If not then just maybe practice your fundamental swing (while alone of course, youll look weird to others).

When I was on the road a few weeks ago, I leaned my head against the wall using a pillow to soften and made practice swings with a steady head.

10/14 - played in a CC tourney today that I organized for my neighborhood. Had a decent day, nothing spectacular. I had some really great drives and some not so great. Some really great approaches, some not so great. Did well with balanced weight shift, but got quick on my driver tempo at times. Always better to be playing than at work

10/17 - Mirror work at the gym. I am going to the range later as well. Working on flat left wrist at impact. My latest videos show a bit of a flip at impact.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…

      Please forgive the sweaty shirt.  Just got off the treadmill and decided to do my Evolvr drill.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By klineka ·

      I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
