3/14: Storm is through northern VA and my shoveling is done. We got off easy here, and my guess is that it was just a few inches, as we turned to freezing rain early on. Not sure I've got the strength

Thoughts: steady head and weight forward.

13/3/17 - Two things today. Mirror work on takeaway led to me immediately realising that every issue from yesterday's range session was as a result of my weight getting too far toward my toes again at address. Straightaway, everything went back to where it was before, so that's a reminder of why that checkpoint is there for me! Secondly, did some putting work on tempo and distance control - my thought here is short backstroke and feeling more aggressive through the putt, which leads to me holing way more.

Fell off the wagon for 5 days.  Huge work project (ISP/IP space change) made me forget about golf...but it's times like those in which I need a 5-10 minute golf break most!  No excuses :naughty: ;-).

3/12: 10 minutes - continued work with more neutral grip (1/4 swings), then work with turn on full swings w/OW.

Lots of cold, soaking rain here in Alabama made for indoor work on 3/13:  15 mins. work on putting, focus on consistent grip and stroke.

3/14: Storm is through northern VA and my shoveling is done. We got off easy here, and my guess is that it was just a few inches, as we turned to freezing rain early on. Not sure I've got the strength in my back to do any slow motion.  I just spent 5 minutes practicing in my brain how to pull my left hip back and around by straightening my left leg near impact.

It says that is valid here below (at 3:40 or so)!

      Yeah, negative PCC days are more likely to be counted in the best 8, but the PCC decreases the downward impact of these scores, as it increases your posted differential.  As for the conditions, it really is funny how the scores posted don't always reflect what seem like tough conditions.   Its clear that you thrive in difficult conditions.

      I guess someone decided to do more work for little benefit then.  I might be the lucky one then. I have a +3 and a +1 on my counted scores.

      2024 Changes to the World Handicap System (WHS)

      By gbogey ·

      I've only seen one positive PCC since it began, a +3 during a tournament on a tough, firm course with the wind blowing at least 30 mph. A scratch golfer got so frustrated he pulled out after 9. Sadly, the +3 did nothing for me as I was a good 10-12 strokes above the score counting. Currently 3 of my last 7 scores have a negative PCC. Of course, all 3 of those are in my best eight. I'm puzzled, as the wind was blowing pretty good on at least two of those rounds.

      By DaveP043 ·

      It changed to the best 8 of the last 20, in the 2020 changes.  When I attended a Handicapping Workshop in 2020, we were told that they anticipated that the PCC would apply in about 10% of the rounds.  That's about what I see now, maybe slightly more often since the algorithm was tweaked not long ago.  And remember, the PCC will adjust MOST of the scores on a given day towards the mean.  With a positive PCC (more high scores), most players scores wouldn't be in the best 8/20 even with the PCC, so the impact is nothing, although the few players who had a good day will see the impact on their HI increased.   I believe it will be very rare that a player has even two scores in their best 8 with any kind of PCC.
