"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

[Shindig]

Day 67.  I found my practice room twice today, 5 minutes each;  the wall drill and the same swings off the mat I've been doing.

Day 16

Same focus and practice but I also worked in the day 12 covid trail arm club toss. I think this is one I will do for a few days. I really like the feel and think this complements my work of trying to stay on plane in the downswing.

Day 177 - I’ve been forgetting to post. Practiced into my net today focusing on focusing. I picked a spot on the ball and focused on that through impact. Did this with 6 iron and driver for about 30 minutes. I’ve been having trouble with that lately.

Day 1 - I played golf all weekend but didn't get my posts in, so I've easily missed 2+ in the last 28 days. Back to square 1 😞

Today I worked on my hip turn in the backswing, starting with mirror work and then hitting some balls. I have a tendency to sway a bit towards the target when trying to rotate my hips, so I'm trying to get that sorted out.

Day 23:  Indoor putting drills.  Outdoor hitting into a net.  Continue to focus on stance and posture with only swing thought being to keep a steady head.  Full swings with mostly driver, but also 3 wood and 3 hybrid off the tee as well as "rescue" type swings with 3 hybrid and 7 iron.  Stance, posture, and steady head only swing thought on all swings.

Day 241 - August 25, 2020

18 holes at Venango Valley. Score to be posted in the GAME GOLF topic, I think.

Day 33

Played 18 today. Hitting the ball better and better.  My wife commented that this was the straightest my Drives have been all year.  I crushed a couple Drives.

Worked on using and trusting my sandwedge from 90 yards in. Significant improvement in wedge play.

Day 68.  Speed Sticks, protocol one.  Did fine.  I'm not really gaining, but I'm not really losing ground either.

Day 258

Post didn’t go through yesterday.

Yesterday - Superspeed workout, then a bunch of slow swings working on priority piece.

Today - more work on priority piece with half swings. Just being a good stupid monkey.

Day 17

Did 5 minutes filming FV of my practice. Same focus as prior days but I wanted to see how steady my head was as well as whether I was getting proper rotation, hands at impact etc. 

Did 3 or 4 slow takeaways and return to shaft parallel and then proceeded to do a full swing. I have a slight head movement away from target but it seems not to be excessive. Everything else looked fairly clean to my untrained eye. Biggest issue is still a slight increase in shoulder tilt (more visible from DTL) at the start of the downswing. It's not there on my slow swings but always returns when I take a full swing.

Day 242 - August 26, 2020

Played a few holes with a playing lesson. Chipped in on one, which I haven't done much lately.

Day 24: Outdoor swings into a net.  Continue to focus on stance, posture, and steady head.  Today I did full and partial swings with my wedges as well as full swings with 3 wood and 3 hybrid off the deck.  Also, indoor chipping practice.

Day 69.  In between grading and hockey, I found time to do the wall drill and hit about three balls.  There was a five minute consecutive session in there (it's the one that included actually hitting a few balls), plus a few more times that were mostly the wall.  If I had known I was up against such a milestone, I might have scheduled a better practice for today.

Day 259

Superspeed workout and more 7-iron swings working on priority piece. 

[bweiss711]

Day 25:  Went to a practice facility in a nearby suburb with a dedicated short game practice area.  My biggest goal today was simply to check out the facility as it was my first time there.  I hit a variety of shots, but mostly worked off of instinct and feel.  Before next time, I'll study up more on actual technique and see if what I think I'm doing is real.

Day 18

spent about 7 minutes working on my same routine. Not happy with my swings at all today. Filmed the whole session with my new tripod that arrived today. 
 

woof.
