Day 49: 4/12/2024

Got to the range today and worked on my priority pieces first. 
Then I "played" my course on the driving range. Irons were looking solid. The driver was a bit sloppy. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 528, April 12, 2024

Went downtown at 7am to work for two hours, but only ended up getting in time AFTER lessons because I spent the two hours before dealing with the GoDaddy/MediaTemple DNS issues that took down almost all of my sites.

Day 28. April 12 - 20ish mins doing drills from my latest evolvr session. Slow, lots of rehearsals to feel the new movement. Lots of poor contact and some video for feedback on the movement. Lots of learning ahead.

Day 529, April 13, 2024

Did something to my right hip, so slow motion stuff with the backswing while simultaneously stretching/pushing that hip… It was hurt a bit on Monday, too, but the soccer game last night wasn't particularly wise, perhaps. 😉

Day 29. Nice out this afternoon so I spent a bit of time chipping off gnarly lies, pretty happy with the results overall. That was followed by full shots into the net with more work on recent Evolvr drills. Learning new movement patterns is hard

Day 50: 4/13/2024

Today was a busy day, between filing my taxes, mowing the lawn, getting the groceries and ... of course, watching The Masters. 
The only thing I got done today was my over-speed training. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

    • Yep.  If a vehicle is even moving at 25 mph, that covers 37-FT in one second, or 10 yards in one second. It is highly probable that Scottie didn't have time to react, and ended up driving further than what the cop probably deemed acceptable and thought Scottie was trying to run him over.  The fact is, the cop should not have put themselves in that position to begin with.  Edit. I didn't even calculate the stop distance needed (when Scottie hits the brakes). That 10 yards is if he never slowed down. Human reaction time is about .25 seconds, maybe longer when it is 5AM. 
    • I read this story yesterday about Scottie, interesting to read something a little different than the standard coverage about him. If you have NYT or Athletic access.  Scottie Scheffler’s secret: How a ‘venomous’ trash talker became the best golfer in the world Scheffler has worked to tame his inner competitive fire but those who've seen it up close have...  
    • His recognition factor may be even lower if he has to play in that orange jumpsuit. May be mistaken for Rickie Fowler.😉
    • Reports are saying the officer jumped onto his car. So he assaulted the officer with his car, that the officer voluntarily jumped on top of.
    • Drove his car 15-20yds with the officer hanging on the side of the car door.
