[chris3putt]

14th May:- 10 mins full swing practice. Focused on getting the clubhead outside the hands at A2 by increasing the dorsiflex in the right wrist. 

[Mico]

Range work before and after playing 18

pre-work. Holding lag and taking a full swing. I am cutting off back swing

post work. Hitting 3-wood with lag. Avoid hitting ground before ball

May 15 - traveling today. Did some shoulder turn work to loosen up a bit. It's a good stretch for older bodies.

Focused on keeping my left wrist flat at the top of the swing this morning with my "spatula drill".

15/5/17 - 5 minutes putting downstairs on the mat, still working on start location and grip pressure.

[MasonAsher2014]

Worked on the grip this morning with driver to stop the quick hook off the tee. Putted from inside 10 feet.

5-15

Did about 20 minutes of mirror work on lead leg flexion and extension. That's all of the time I had for today. 

[Mico]

15 min Sklz, 7i and driver

stop at top, pump, step thru and full swings

took extra time with pump drill to make sure that it was full body pump and not just arms. Felt really good

25 min chipping

6/11 with wife talking at me!!! There's a way to practice not letting your opponent's trash talking get to you 

5/11 on round two "yes, dear"

4/6 on round three "yes, I am listening"

2/2 to finish

5/15:  Back at it with a very long session today.... Sole focus across all work was TEMPO

At least 60 minutes of pitching games in the yard, varying ~30-45yds., at flag (and hole) target, split across 3 sessions; tempo
30 minutes full swing work w/foam balls and TourStriker p7i, at flag target; tempo
15 mins. brisk conditioning drills w/OW (a few sets w/Momentus); somewhere around 4 sets of 20 w/the OW; 2x10 w/the Momentus

Best consistency and striking practice I've had this year.  I was so confident with the tempo focus; every shot felt like very good contact with minimal effort, and the tightest dispersion I've had in a while.  I think it'd have been a low 80s day if I'd been able to play.  Let's see if I can do just that Wednesday.

5/15: It's only Monday, but I needed a golf-fix, so after about 4-5 minutes of warm-up and slow swings, I spent about 30 minutes just hitting balls. Easy swings, picking a target and thinking about hip turn and weight transfer, but really just having fun.

15th May:- 10 mins full swing practice. Again working on the clubhead position at A2.

5/16 - not been around much lately (life happens). More work on centered hip turn. Obviously shortened motion using kettle bell...

5/16/17:

Some hybrids and 4-wood shots with limited flight balls focusing on head steady and feeling I'm staying level.

[RandallT]

5/16: 45min at nearby club green. Worked on estimating %slope and confirming with a level. After establishing the actual read, I putted 3 balls from each location. Did variety of close, mid, and long-range putts. Seems like I sunk a far higher share of mid-range putts than I would typically do!

May 16 - Shoulder turn work after a long ride. 

[Mico]

20 min Sklz, 7i and driver

stop at top, pump, step thru and full swings

did an extra set of pumps with added emphasis on full body pump, not just arms

10 min chipping

that's all it took

7/11 first round, 8/11 second round, tidied up last three in no time

[TN94z]

5-16

Range work on hip drills. Hit the ball okay at first then I either started thinking of other swing thoughts or just spent too much time on the range. The end of the session was terrible
