Day 331

Casually hit some balls with 7 and 8-iron, recreating the swing thought and feels that were working well for me in the second half of my round yesterday.

Also putted on a yardstick for about half an hour watching TV in the afternoon.

Day 35: Played 18 today in a pretty slow round. A guy in our group actually felll out of his cart. 😜 He also ran into our cart when we weren’t in it.

Day 316 - November 9, 2020

Got my new PSB golf bag, and swapped clubs and stuff into it, and… hit some putts after moving the stuff over.

Day 1

Played 9 today - putted better (14), but that only because I missed more greens and was chipping for closer 1st putts. 😏...but I did take a wider stance and practiced my pendulum and tempo. It’s one thing for me to practice it, and another thing for me to trust it on the course....I guess more reps will take care of that

Day 3.  Several five minute interludes into the practice room during work hours (and a little after) today.  6-iron and 9-iron, indoors, off a mat, into the net.  The usual.  I'll be traveling for the Masters so expect some indoor putting practice coming up :-)

Week 3 - off season program

Day 1 - restarting as I did not get any work in this weekend and I forgot to record my session yesterday, a solid day of hitting off our new mat. 

This morning a great strength & conditioning work out.  42 minutes in total.  Utilized SKLZ tempo grip trainer, SKLZ Gold Flex, arm band, lunges both lateral and forward, core work and I added 2 sets of 15 swinging left handed.

Day 36: worked on a tweak in my priority piece. I need to have my right knee move more toward the target and less toward the ball on the downswing. At the instructor’s suggestion, I made a training aid to tell me if my right knee moves too far out towards the ball. It worked pretty well.

Just finished hitting 40 to 45 balls off of the new mat to add to the above for today.  10 with 8I working on some 1/2 swings, and then focusing on that 3/4 swing. 10 with the Driver, 10 with 9I from the first few at 1/2 swing and then focusing on 3/4 swing.  5 with the 5 Wood; 5 with PW with 3/4 swing

Day 333

Two days until a lesson, so just worked on my takeaway/backswing priority piece to reinforce the feels I’ve come to use. Also hit some balls with 7-iron and did some yardstick putting practice. I’ve really been digging the yardstick putting drill, and hope it adds some confidence in my next round, especially inside 10 feet.

Context:  this afternoon I left for Masters week out of town.

Day 4.  Before leaving, I had a partial work day, which included taking breaks in the practice room;  6- and 9-iron, off a mat, into a net, with real balls.
