Day 24 (14 Feb 25) - Played with the l Friday men’s group (only 7 of us today - temps in the low 40’s to start and N-NW winds gusting to 10-15 mph).  It was course management front and center type of day.  Had ample opportunities to work from some tough lies, etc.  Overall an okay round -  the bigger struggle was with the putter (several three putts and one four - ugggly offset by one terrific 60’ putt for birdie).  Spent some time after the round chipping on the practice green.

Day 210: did mirror work while watching a movie. Working on earlier wrist hinge in the backswing. Seems like I need to feel it almost on the takeaway for it to work.

Day 138 - 2025-02-15

Stayed after Junior Elite for 90 minutes. Almost exclusively downswing stuff at various speeds. At high speeds I'm consistently 1-2° right. At slower speeds, 6° out if I exaggerate it a little. (Slower speeds for me are 70 MPH 6Is).

Day 25 (15 Feb 25) - A little background on today’s drill session.  On the way to band rehearsal this morning I was listening to the guys on PGA Tour radio in the golf school segment and they got to talking about short game practice.  As I love working that part of the game, my ears perked up.  They were talking taking multiple clubs and doing pitches/chips from the same distance and learning how each flies the ball.  So today was the start of the 8P54 drill (8i - Pw - 54°).   Set it up to hit two balls with each club from the same lie to a set distance.  It really helps envision what I should see in each club.  A sweet new twist to a fave drill.

Day 9: 2/15/2025

Spent several 5-10 minutes sessions today working on what I learned from Yoda yesterday. Pretty much a new priority piece.

Day 211: putting work today on my mat. Worked on some feels to get my head to move less. Contact was improving.

Day 26 (16 Feb 25) - Basically a repeat of yesterday- only it was a bit more expanded chips/pitches - 7i, 9i, 50° and 58°.   Big exception was I was hitting groups of 5 one club at a time.  Focused on a specific target point - and coming smoothly through the ball, not punchy.  Got it right about 3 out of 5 - more work needed.

Day 140 - 2025-02-17

Got to GE pretty early. Few lessons and then a GEARS visit with a guy. Pelvis work, go figure. Put down two mats later with a carpet stay thing, and hit some balls before heading home.

Day 27 (17 Feb 25) - Some time with the putter this morning - worked on distance control.  Followed up with some work with the hybrids into the net in the backyard.  Best part of the day - grand kiddos are in from Mass this week and we’re at the house this afternoon.  Got to work with both of them on some basic golf stuff.  It is was a priceless afternoon
