Guests went out to the pharmacy. Wife in the bedroom on the computer...got in five minutes of turn practice with hands folded across my chest and turn into backswing. I didn't even have to hide in the bathroom...yet! Merry Christmas!

Full swings on the range with my 6i and aw prior to playing 9 holes.  Wasn't striking the ball particularly well with the 6i.  Maybe 15%.

Played 18 again and grip practice has paid off. More consistent than usual but still not where I want to be. Hitting wedges in the back and putting while watching football

Day 23; more Kallassy swing sequences. Probably 15 minutes worth. Still pretty damp and cold out,  which does not collide well with this bronchitis I am getting over. Just keeping in swing shape, focusing on my in to out swing path. 

Day 24; worked on my flop shots today, using my 9i, and AW. Using a some what open stance, with an open club face, with the club face square to the targeted landing area, was my focus. Used 1/2, 3/4, and full swings for distance control. Probably 30 minutes spent on this. Just looking for that high arc ball flight, with little or no roll from the ball when it lands. This is my favorite shot to use when ever I can.

Spending the day at SeaWorld, so got practice in early. Trying a new drill that I thought of last night. I'm putting my right hand lower on the grip and making a bunch of slow practice swings.

Merry Christmas Everybody !!!  Walked 18 today for the first time. No push cart and no caddie either, haha. What an experience, thats the best. I learned alot about slowing down and thinking between shots. Im tired but sports are hard work. Great practice at the chipping green afterward too. Really great day

Day 24; work on my flop shots today, using my 9i, and AW. Using a some what open stance, with an open club face, with the club face square to the target area. 

Day 25; went to the short game practice area. I recieved 4 dozen of those Kirkland balls, and  loaded 14 of them into my shag stick. Spent about an hour on putting, chips, and pitches. Going to work on getting familiar to these new balls. Not much difference from my normal gamers as far I can tell.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 33 (20 Feb 26) - played the Friday men’s group shootout.  Solid day of working from some tough shot results - made for a good number of up and downs for par (8 of the 9 pars were such). Cart mate and I discussed the visual aspect of the game - and how much it plays into the individual’s mindset during the round.  Love when the discussion is focused on learning and taking positives away and not just how bad the miss may be.

      My Swing (iacas)

      By iacas · Posted

      Still kinda working on the backswing stuff. I can turn < 45°, but I tend to tilt toward the target a little. I can tilt away from the target, but I tend to turn a bit more. Case in point. I can do it, though: This I can do all day (it's more lateral than I want, but it's very linear): Here's what 38° of turn looks like. Almost freaking nothing.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good progress. I am finally feeling like I am settling my weight into my right foot earlier in the backswing. Right hip sinks back, right leg feels staying flexed. Feeling very stable and firm in the right leg. I feel like I could do a good squat with that right leg. Very balanced.

      oops, forgot Pebble Beach and Spyglass.  And two more of the original Open rota, Prestwick and Musselburgh (with hickory shafted rentals).  And Muirfield.  And maybe a few more, I'll check my list when I get home.
