Day 20, 1/11/2022

I repeated my mirror work today. 
First step no club, repeat until I get the feel.

Second step is club across the collarbone, repeat until I get the feel.

Then I try to keep that feel during the third step which is drawing back the actual club.

During each step I try to check in the mirrors to make sure I'm where I want to be. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 72, January 11, 2022

Hit some 7I for awhile. The 1.4 smash went just as far as the other… despite being 5 MPH slower clubhead speed. (I didn't catch the 95 MPH one perfectly.)

Day 164:

Got confirmation that our household is infected with covid (knew already, but positive PCR results), so no strenuous practice today. Did some work on hip turn piece, and a bit of indoor putting.

Day 21: 1/12/2022

Got up early to finish a project for work. After I got that done I got in 10 minutes of really good mirror work. 

Going to hit balls today. Either at the range and/or in the garage. 

If any time reminds I'm going to do the chipping ladder drill.

Day 81 (01/12/22) - Did Day 11 of the 30 Day Practice plan - Putting Pendulum (yes, I did read the posts first) for about 20 minutes. Focused on matching backswing and follow swing while maintaining the same tempo.

Great drill BTW!

Day 38. 1/12/2022

Played 18 on simulator indoors at Sim City. My shots of the day were flop shots taken directly as prescribed from day 13 of the 30 day Covid-19 practice plan. Low hanging fruit, nonetheless, a good feeling.

Under construction, signature and game.

Day 73, January 12, 2022

Tested out some Awesome Golf stuff on the projector downtown. Beat Ryan at a few games, and played two over par golf in the practice round (chips should NOT spin to a stop that quickly).

    • Okay, I'm genuinely curious about this "biodegradable leather" trend in golf. Are we talking snake oil here? I mean, golf balls, clubs... they all end up in the water eventually. Is this just greenwashing, or is there actually a real environmental benefit? And honestly, does it even perform as well as traditional leather? I don't want to sacrifice distance for the planet, you know? Anyone with real-world experience with these eco-friendly golf goods? Spill the tea!
