A few hours downtown today working on the same things. Was good, particularly after a rough bout with a 9I. Reinforced the right things.

Day 262: Range work today in the mist. Worked on slow, long backswing from wedges to driver. I’m playing the next couple of days and hope to keep this going. I am still setting up with the face open to my foot lineΒ and pointing slightly right of target with feet left of target.Β Contact was good and flight was primarily push slight draws.

Moved onto short game with chips and pitches in the practice area. Also did some fringe lies and tried a hybrid or bladed wedge for putts. Finished with putting. Used my rhythm app at first to get that down, then putt one all around the green to try and two putt. The place was empty due to the weather.

Day 19:

Played a morning 9 after a day off yesterday (need to check and see if this kills my practice streak). I was the first one off so I decided to play from the tips, about 3400 yards. Focused on recentering/flow in my pre-shot rehearsals. I was playing pretty wellΒ (+3) until carding an 8 on the final hole.

Played another morning 9, probably last round on vacation. Swing thought was recentering/flow. Played pretty well. Had a chip-in birdie after airmailing aΒ partial wedge approach by about 15 yards. Also birdied the 9th hole after approachΒ to about 6 feet.
