Yah, but I started this thread below in May 2016! I was determined to be finished with this aspect of my swing within a year. Tick tock!

Guess the time doesn't matter, but man, I feel close! It actually feels very comfortable at home without a ball. A bit less comfortable with a ball at home, but I can do it reliably. But still uncomfortable at the range at anything other than slow speed. Oddly, I feel disoriented at the range when I try to do 50% swings or so. I'm counting on more time, and daily reps just bleeding through to the range and eventually the course (when I can play more!).

30/3/17 - Hit the driving range to work on my priority pieces and recorded some swings to send to Preston on evolvr and will pop some on my swing thread later. Looking forward to the feedback and moving forward from here!

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

3/30: A little time on the range today with the camera, not as successful starting the ball to the right, as I've been at home. Was trying to slow down but video confirmed I wasn't, really. It got better after a bit, but still felt off.

20 min

sklz swing trainer, 7 iron, driver

stop at top, pump, step thru and full swings + 3 sets alt 7 iron and driver

felt good, starting to try to control swings inside and outside, see if it lasts

did NOT make March challenge, got drunk in Mexican airport instead of practicing one day (definitely worth it ;)

end of first quarter, hitting more fairways and GIRs, hoping that this holds up in Q2

3/31: 10 minutes with 6 iron and plastic balls out front. Small swings, starting it right of my alignment stick. Good to use a 6-iron in the front yard for this, forced me to keep my swings small to keep the balls in my yard. :-)

March Challenge Complete!

3/31:  20 mins. putting drills; made practice strokes at super-slow speed, inspired by @mvmac's "Change the dang picture!" thread.  Really seemed to click, giving me consistency in my fully-back and finish positions (and keeping my putts much more on line).  Think I'm gonna continue this one.  On to April!
