Day 82: Sep 10

Golf lesson, focusing on Continuing to improve my clubpath & clubface control. It’s getting there for sure - I can focus and deliver an accurate clubpath, but I leave the face open. So been working on over exaggerating the right moves, both during the lesson and later practicing into a net.

Day 17:

Played 18 - tied a personal best with 76. Everything felt sharp, but kind of fumbled the ball on the goal line with 3-putt bogeys on #17 and #18.

Day 65: Played 18 in a state mid-am qualifier. Missed qualifying by 6, but I fought on the back 9 and broke 80, so I’m pleased. Ball striking was excellent, putting was bad.

Day 18:

Continued working on downswing feel hitting balls with 3-iron. Also did some backswing work focusing on hinging a bit earlier and getting deeper hip turn.

Afterward did a Fit for Golf workout, and a little pitching practice to cool down.

Day 130 - Finally got back to the range, wedges and irons were great, driver wasn't. Battling the weird toe ball snap hook.

It started improving towards the end when I focused on left forearm priority piece. 

Going to keep working at it this week in prep for a tournament on Sunday.

Did The Stack session tonight too.

Day 316, September 12, 2023

Played nine holes, then went to the range to specifically work on the driver. Just have to really exaggerate one of the things.
