Trying to heal a foot injury, so making full swings isn't in the card right now.  I hit some putts at home for 15 minutes and did my arm speed drill for like 5 mins.

Day 268: forgot to post yesterday, but first day I’ve missed for a while. Anyway, spent about 25 minutes chipping indoors into my chipping net game with foam balls. Worked on high, medium, and low chips. High chips needed the most work, but it’s also not easy to do those off carpet into a net 5 feet away. Lower chips were much better, so that’s good.

Day 269: went to the range at lunch. Filmed and worked on my priority piece for a good 30 minutes. Was really good block practice. Got some solid videos to send to evolvr. Good practice session!

Day 20. That other thread about shotscope data was really helpful context. Started with some technique work and then hit some full shots into the net with the skytrak on. Still battling the hooks but the number of draws was up significantly so definite progress in the right direction.

Day 40: 4/4/2024

Got to the range on lunch and worked on priority pieces. Then I "played" my tournament course. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 522, April 5, 2024

Played 18 holes at The Cardinal in Greensboro, NC yesterday (then drove home). Worked for about two hours today with the QuadMAX. Exaggerating a "flick throw" these days. Swing is almost entirely right arm/hand right now (a good thing).

Day 1: Worked on Evolver drill to get elbow away from my body on the backswing and not use arms as much to bring the club around.

Day 100! 4/5/24

Putting through 50 mm gates. A little unfocused, I guess, and hit the gates early with some frequency. Finished much better. Looking forward to playing tomorrow.

Day 270: putted for a bit on a mat. Worked on stroke and making sure my head isn’t moving. I think my contact is better, which is great.
