Day 47:

30 balls this evening.

Started with 7-iron and hit 5 balls, full swing, moderate speed, focusing on still head. I think I have been overdoing a hip feel from my priority piece, so I simply stopped trying to feel that thing. Contact was good, 2/5 balls were a touch fat.

Next did some short game work. Really focusing on good contact with short game shots. I don't have much time to practice short game at an actual practice facility, but I figure if I can make good contact, that will lead to some improvement. Did 10 balls with more of a chipping motion, but more of a 80% chip / 20% pitch shot. Then 10 balls of full pitch shots.

Finally finished with 5 more balls with 7-iron, same as the first 5.

Might do some indoor putting later, not sure.

Day 574, May 30, 2024

18 holes. The front nine was a worst ball scramble from the white tees. We didn't use a lot of my shots, so that's good.

Day 12 - Think I slept on my left arm or something last night, it's been hurting all day. No club, but worked on setup, grip and some short, slow swings with a tube.

Day 27:  Still nursing my shoulder so more putting practice.  

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

Day 77. Technique work into the net. Pretty tired from a long day at the Canadian open so not my best movement.

Day 29 (30 May 24) - Played weekly play the best drive nine hole scramble with my friends.  Was a fun round working as I put the old MacGregor irons and Penna persimmons in play.  Love the extra level of concentration required to make good contact with the clubs.

Day 78. Played 18. Hit a couple good shots but overall was not happy with how I was playing. Narrow course and my ballstriking just wasn’t good enough.

Day 575, May 31, 2024

Played about five holes without a distraction today, and about 13 while my mind was elsewhere and on the taps on my wrist and the messages I was sharing with @Hardspoon and… just generally being annoyed about what was happening.

But I played pretty well for the five holes.

    • I know the camera angle is terrible but I wasn't to be bothered by anything. This a straight up caveman hit. No structural or dynamic positional thoughts. Wanted to clean up my palate of too many competing thoughts. Still committed to getting my pelvis and trail elbow moving correctly but I'm just fighting myself a bit too much at the moment.
