New here, so thought I'd jump in the deep end. This morning featured 10 mins or so working on partial shots to get consistent speeds on various length backswings for pitches and chips. I'm focused

5/5 Played 18. Was +4 through 8 (which is unspeakably phenomenal for me) then earned myself three 10's in the next 5 holes.  Spent 15 minutes pondering the meaning of life. Spent another hour

5/19: About 15 minutes with the metronome app tonight. Settled in at about 42 bpm and used a simple, "one...two" count for backswing to downswing. Spent some time with both my driver and my pitching wedge. A few minutes of tempo'd practice swings and then a few minutes hitting plastic balls (with tempo) with each club.

5/19:  Hopefully last day of being overly restricted, then can start ramping back up.
10 mins. 50%-75%-speed full swings w/7i, no ball; focus on takeaway not being too inside, then lagging through and bumping ground through impact position, to full follow through.

Full bucket of balls at range. Worked on keeping lag in swing

good smooth swing and contact except for some shanks that crept in foreshadowingly before my 18 holes

5/20: Played "select-a-shot" from the front tees with my son today, shot 79 (40/39). Had a great day. He's really starting to enjoy golf, which is good to see. Also, I like playing from the fronts with him and getting a read on every putt. Of course, he made a couple of putts outside of 10 feet (for birdie and par) that I was glad I didn't have to putt. :-D

5/20:  Back in full action today....
At least 45 mins. pitching from different locations around yard to my pin; focus on neutral weight at address, then pressure to left foot, then through.
10 mins. warmup/loosen-up/light-conditioning sets w/OW -- went well, no pain
25 mins. full swings, foam balls w/TourStriker p7i at target; focus on opening a little more at setup (had been trending closed), then not-rushed transition, hips through and lag into impact.  Felt pretty fresh and was really striking it well. 

Getting pretty rainy here in AL, and will stay so through the week, so not sure when I'll get to take my work back out to the course.  Hopefully soon.

May 20th:- 5 mins full swing practice. Now working more on the through swing. From the fuller backswing position (more shoulder turn), I'm conscious of a pause at A4, followed by a definite movement of the hips toward the target to initiate the through swing. Am finding this to be very encouraging, results wise.

Bucket of balls before playing. Short irons were great. Good contact, ball flight long and straight. 3W and hybrid 3 a little more erratic. Driver was OK

wgen I felt lost lag, used the pump drill to get it back. Did it on course when I was playing too.

      Have You Played Where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA Event Has Been Played?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      In March of 1978 I got to play Pebble Beach GC. Played it from the back tees, since I knew I'd probably never play it again. Oops, shot 102.  Three weeks later, I played Torrey Pines - South, again from the back tees (maybe 6,700 yds in those days). Shot an 87, and missed a birdie putt on the lakeside No. 18 green. In 2021, I played TPC Deere Run in the Quad Cities area. This is site of the John Deere Classic. It was early October and the course was undergoing renovation, so I got to play the front nine twice for $110, lunch included. The course was great and the driving range was unbelievable. Hint: you need to pay attention to the wind drafts before you try to challenge the cross bunkers! BTW, Deere Run is a public course. Norwood Hills Country Club is site of the Champions tour event, the Ascension Charity Classic, now the Stifel Charity Classic. This classic layout has 36 holes.This summer I hope to play the West course where the Champions event is held; Missouri Golf Association is sponsoring an amateur event there.  I have played the shorter East course three times - it's quirky but quite fun. Also: Circa 2000 I played il Picciolo, a course at the base of Mount Etna in Sicily. The volcano was spewing ash that week. The course frequently hosts European pro events. Lots of elevation change and gently rippling fairways. Left a 7i shot 10 yards short of green on one par 5. Turns out the hole had a 12-foot high alpine flagstick, and I was not as close to the green as I thought I was (bad perspective).

      Just the Plantation course at Kapalua. Not like I didn't know it, but it was a visceral reminder of how ridiculously good the tour pros are. That course is f***ing *hard* playing it from ~6500 yards. From the tips!? Then if there's wind?!

      How far back are we talking? Like I've played Inwood on Long Island and that held a US Open back in the day (nearly 100 years ago now). Courses that have held big events recently: Shinnecock Hills Merion Bethpage Black Winged Foot West Kiawah Island Ocean TPC Sawgrass Walton Heath Old Royal St Georges Royal Liverpool The Old Course Turnberry Muirfield Kingsbarns Royal Porthcawl Phoenix Country Club A few others that have held European Tour events relatively recently, and then these ones that held big events a long time ago: Royal Cinque Ports Prestwick Princes Inwood

      I get he thinks he can compete, but it's time to enjoy retirement. Get involved in golf in other ways. Go design hundreds of new courses. Expand the game. Maybe tee it up at the Majors from time to time. Yea, it is over.

      Firestone North (I think it was the world series of golf at the time, but it was held on the North course one year due to maintenance needed on the South Course.) Firestone South (Bridgestone Inv) TPC Sawgrass (The Players Championship) Pine Needles (U.S. Women's Open) There might be some other ones I am not aware of, but these are ones off the top of my head.  I am probably scratching off Whistling Straights and Erin Hills later this year 😁
