Day 26 (27 May 24) - Quick pick up nine with son and grandson at Harbour Pointe….switched up the clubs, pulling out the old MacGregor irons and Toney Penna persimmons.  Iron play much more solid than the woods.

Day 24: putting practice at home 

I may not hit the ball far, but at least I find all of the pretty flowers.

Day 27 (28 May 24) - Was to play the monthly church men’s group superball rounds. We got 2-1/2 holes in when the rain/thunder/lightning hit - course gave us a rain check….overall, was a solid couple of holes.

Day 46:

Really struggled today, maybe some fatigue from a long weekend with lots of yard work, family time, and two early rounds of golf. I just could not find the ball at all with full swings. Slow, fast, super slow, medium speed, it didn't matter. I was hitting all sorts of terrible shots; chunks, shanks, tops, pulls, pushes, basically every miss was a possibility. Stopped after about 20 balls and hit the mental reset and changed course to "still head" fundamental practice while making easy swings. Hit the ball well doing this. Stuck with it for about 15 balls, and then did a little pitching and chipping practice.

Day 573, May 29, 2024

Played 18 holes with @DrizZzY. Bogeyed the ninth to shoot a pretty painless -1 (which gave me a 0.6 differential in the new 18-hole transformation in GHIN). Fine.
