Did a bunch of rehearsal backswings working on new piece for trail leg/hip. Then hit some balls while taking a break from yardwork.

Day 76 - putting for bead with yardstick drill

Day 34.  Hit a half dozen balls as warm-up (indoors, etc, you know by now) and then went out back and did Speed Sticks protocol one.  At this rate, by tax day I'll be back to protocol two!

Got downtown early before some Junior Elite Program stuff, so practiced for 30 minutes. Getting a little bit faster at what I'm trying to do. Set up the noodle.

Day 13

Made it to the range today.  Worked on driver for the most part.  Playing with settings and trying to find a new "baseline".

Also spent some time on shorter pitch shots.  Doesn't feel like a good practice session without at least some short game work.

Day 80 (27 Mar 21) - easy day today, mirror work w/7i worked on the takeaway stopping at half swing and then coming back thru with the downswing, making sure to get weight forward.

Day 12 (3/28/21): I spent 30 minutes working with the PuttOut training aid. Specifically concentrating on proper eye alignment, smoother takeaway and putting through the ball.

Day 468:

Played 18. Working with new feel for trail leg/hip in backswing. Played really well, but need to do some work on clubface control to iron out a few right misses.

Day 77 - range. I kept hitting 15 yd “draws” with 9i & Wedge...changing my grip or opening my stance changed little. Hopefully one weird day and not the start of something

Day 455 - March 28, 2021

Hit balls after a relatively long day considering I only had three things to do. 🙂 But three turned into five.

Day 14. 

Got to play 18 today.  But holy crap was it COLD!  43* and 20+mph winds.  Buddy and I were just stubborn enough to play because we prepaid a few days ago when the forecast said 55*.  Anyway...

Primary focus was puting driving practice into action. Drove the ball great.  12/14 fir. Glad I spent time on it yesterday.

Day 81 (28 Mar 21) - wedge swings in the backyard today.  Pitching the ball between 10 and 30 yards.  Scattered the balls about 2yds apart and then worked to get them to kick in distance to the cups in the yard. This is something I love doing as I have seen consistent growth in accurate shot placement and the feel of the clubs.

Day 35.  Over the course of three separate sessions, I hit 45 balls today (my indoor golf room).  Focused on the priority pieces:  less extra extension in leg, plus a setup piece.

Day 15. 

Back inside today.  And realizing I have a ways to go in terms of fitness ... more sore than I should be from 18holes yesterday. 

Decided to stick to putting.  6' putts, probably about 10min or so.  Should likely be doing more, but just overall busy today.   During the putts though one thing I've found that helps me is to reset my feet/stance/alignment each time.  You still end up in the same place, as I know have subconscious markers in my basement and on the matt, but I think having to reset each time helps make for good habits.

Day 469:

Did some warmup with some slow swings working on trail leg/hip backswing priority piece, then a superspeed workout. Depending on my evening schedule, I may do some more work after dinner.

[Shindig]

Day 36.  Hit a dozen balls at lunch as warm-up (9 with 6-iron, 3 with 4-hybrid), usual setup, and then went out back to do Speed Sticks protocol one.  Final green set recorded 113 mph;  red stick was at 100, but somehow my blue was only at 104.  I wonder a bit what's going on.

Day 78 - a few swings today videoing for MySwing thread (first one in a while).  Hit 30 or so balls on the range today...thankfully no hooks/big draws that plagued me yesterday.  Then 8yd chips into trash can lid in back yard off my hitting mat. Overall, nice day to enjoy the weather.
