Day 591, June 16, 2024

Worked for almost four hours doing some modifications to Golf Evolution (some insulation for a foam door and blacking out the remaining windows next to my teaching area), then hit balls for 45 minutes. Started off stiff, predictably, but five minutes in was humming. Same stuff as the last two days.

Day 8:  Hit a couple of buckets at the range, focused on increasing speed while maintaining form.

Day 176: Father’s Day: 6/16/24

Pitched and chipped to three flags at Harbor Island prior to going to the beach. Good session, but windy. Some elbow pain afterwards.

day 94. Realized I’m getting a little too handsy. Worked on getting the club into good places and much shorter, slower swings to learn the movement.

Day 45 (16 Jun 24) -  Happy Father's Day all - got in a few swings with the clubs, focused on alignment for chipping and pitching.  For me if the target it 12noon, I need to have my feet somewhere around 11 for a solid dead on line pitch/chip.  Worked from about 5yds out to 25yds.  Worked through a series of clubs - 54, PW, 8i and 6i - noting flight patterns of each.

Day 162 - More pitching work, really focusing on letting the club fall and turning my body.

Day 9. Worked on setup and backswing at the gym. Getting pretty frustrated with my hip. May try full swings tomorrow.

Day 46 (17 Jun 24) - Walked the front nine at Minnesott today, with trimmed down back (8 clubs: D, 3w, 4h, 6i, 8i, PW, 54* and Putter).  Knew it would be a challenge to "plan" approaches that the shorter clubs would cover.  Did okay - of the six pars made four were up and downs.  The 54* wedge had a solid day of hitting those infamous short pitches/chips I post about.  Most were within kick-in distance  a couple were in the 8' range.  Overall a 39 scored with three bogies and 0 doubles.  Love the challenge this brings - and to be honest - a lot less stressed as there are fewer options on the table (or in this case "in the bag").

Day 9:  hit a bucket at the range with my driver and did a little putting

Day 592, June 17, 2024

Played 18 holes pausing near the top of the backswing (may not have actually looked like a pause if you were watching me). Hit a 6I about 195 (flew the entire green) and a few other shots long, but… overall, pretty happy. Occasionally was lazy with the arms.

Day 177: 6/17/24

Putting practice through gates. Slow option swings working on ball position.

[4zim]

Day 95. Little bit of outcome work followed by technique work into the net. Also started reading LSW which should count towards this!

[DaHolla]

Day 163 - More work on impact position and footwork. A lot of partial swings, working up to some slow full swings. 

[Darkfrog]

Day 66:

Priority piece work with 7-iron, mostly half swings but a few full swings at the end. Also focused on path which was has been getting OTT wipey.
