"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

Day 62: 2/1/2023

I was able to get in a nice long practice session today. 

After warming up a bit, I took a down the line and a caddie view video of my swing. I sent my videos to Yoda for review.

I know I still have a few things to work on. It's getting better.

I used the putting mirror for about 10 minutes just to check that my alignment is about where I wanted it. Then I did this drill:

Today I hit putts of 12 to 16 feet into a 4 foot by 4 foot box.

I did some chipping practice for 15 minutes with both the 60 and 54 wedges. 
Then I finished up by hitting short pitch shots to 6 different targets.

Overall, a good day of practice

Did some work with a pool floatie/swimmie (the things that go on your arms). Getting decent with the backswing. Through V-Day.

Day 44. Heated range today. Worked on speeding up my body rotation and keeping the same arm/wrist feel. I can feel now when I’m out of sync which helps. Did mostly driver because these mats are stiff and I want to limit hitting off them to protect my left wrist.

Hit balls for 20 minutes at the end of a long day. Proud of myself for this one, actually. Watched the right elbow a bit more on the backswing today.

Day 64: 2/3/23

I started the morning out in the garage net doing blocked practice all with the 5 iron. I say blocked practice because I only used the 5 iron. But I did rotate through a 3 different feels that I'm trying to perfect. 

I finished the evening with some slow motion 7 iron swings in front of the mirror. I have a piece at the start of my downswing that I'm trying to smooth out.

Day 65: 2/4/2023

Got to the indoor range early. I did a ton of random practice. After a warm up, I used all the clubs in my bag. Selecting them with a random number generator on my phone. Then trying to focus on one priority piece at a time as I worked through the bag. 

Then I did some pitching practice. I tried to hit targets at 25 yards, but by hitting some lower and higher pitches. ... Eh, it was okay. 

After that I took out the putting mirror for five minutes just to check my set up and then put the mirror away. Then (you guessed it) I did the Random Speed Control Drill. Today was 15 to 19 footers into a 4'x4' box.
