Day 109- Made some full swings today. Hopefully that means I’m close to 100%, although a particularly painful sneeze has me keeping expectations more realistic.

Day 39. Played my first round, 9 holes at the par 3 course. Positives: didn’t lose a ball (don’t think I’ve managed that before) and had to club down relative to last year despite the lower temperature. Areas of improvement: battling the hooks, but managed to play despite that. Putting was a disaster and distance control needs work. 
 

Might try to spend 10 minutes later working on technique into the net

Day 11:

Spent a little time after kid’s pitching practice hitting balls with 6-iron. Worked on backswing piece while incorporating some flow, and also focused on keeping eyes on ball instead of tracking the club head.

Day 5:  did my drills ahead of playing 9 holes.

i think i was thinking about it too much while playing and basically messed up a lot of shots.  I need to get the muscle memory ingrained.

Day 131 (23 Apr 24) -  Played in monthly church men’s super ball 9 hole event - used a 9 club setup (driver, 5w, 3,5,7,9 irons, PW, SW, putter)…always makes for fun shot making when you’re in between clubs….fun day of course management (and better yet playing golf with my grandson!)

Day 40. In a bit of a mental rut so went back and watched my most recent Evolvr lesson. Focused on the feels there. Lots of fat contact but it felt like I was transferring my weight a bit better. 

Finished with a Stack progress check.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Day 128: 5/3/24 Spent 10 minutes chipping and putting at The Creek golf course after visiting a relative.  Greens are slow, and I putted quite well. Perhaps I should seek courses with much slower greens!

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By snapfade ·

      Not to take away from the OP's question but the Snell 3.0 is about all you could ask for in a ball. I'm not a paid spokesman and my opinion does not reflect on the owner of the site. Lexi Thompson could beat most people with a Top Flite, or a Nitro. Ben Griffin? He doesn't offer a lot of street cred so I'll pass. Now if Fat Perez or Heavy Ballesteros start using it then?????? 😀

      RIP Peter Oosterhuis

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Just read that Peter Oosterhuis passed away. He was the one and only celebrity I have asked for an autograph! In September 2007, I was in the Charlotte Airport awaiting a flight reading my October 2007 Golf Magazine. It was during the FedEx playoffs and Tiger had just won the previous tournament with the Tour Championship the next event. I watched the event listening to the dulcet tones of Peter Oosterhuis, among others. I opened the magazine, and started reading an article about Oosterhuis and the opening picture had him posing as James Bond in a movie’s opening sequence. I looked up from the article and he was sitting directly across from me!    I approached and showed him the article and asked if he would sign the photo. Mr. Oosterhuis asked “Are you keen on golf?” When I responded positively, we spoke for about 10 minutes discussing the fact that both Phil and Tiger had won FedEx events prior to the Tour Championship. He was very gracious and a wonderful storyteller. I was saddened by his battles with dementia and missed him on CBS’s telecasts.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By Clemsonfan ·

      I have been playing the Tour X for several years and find it to be a great ball. I buy them at Golf Galaxy and they often run sales. Was able you buy a box of 48 for $90 after applying a coupon from Dick’s Sporting Goods. I am a big fan!
