Day 15, did some really slow swings to work on my PP. I felt yesterday that when speeding up, I regressed a little bit.

Day 60, December 30, 2022

Worked with a student on GEARS and his daughter earlier today, then got some work in while waiting for Natalie to show up so I could let her in and head out. Filmed a video, too, when I was done showing how luck plays a role in making even a 22' putt.

Day 31: 12/31/2022

Once again, I was at the indoor range early.
Started with my priority pieces. Then worked on some extra priority pieces ... kind of an old one that's come back again.Β 

I did the @iacasΒ putting distance control drill from 15 feet into a 6 foot target area today.Β 
That took me a little while to get it. My score was like 20 something.Β 

Finished up with the ladder putting drill on the practice green.Β

Day 45 (31 Dec 22)Β - Received a challenge from the grandson to see who could hit a hole-in-one in the backyard. Β We set up about 30 paces and emptied the shag bag on the ground. Β He was hitting more of a chip while I was hitting pitches. Β End result Β - we both had a ball to finish about 4” from the hole literally side-by-side. Β Was a fun way to practice around the green style shots while hanging with grandson for the last 5 min daily challenge of 2022….Β

Day 1 - Just spend 5 minutes working on gripping the club. Working on getting the club more the fingers of my left hand, as well as strengthening the right hand. Feels weird, and I need to keep cleaning this up.

    • I agree. I would have thought it would save them shipping costs. I will say, I don't really mind. I'm guessing the labor cost to remove the head and repack it is greater than the difference in shipping costs. I'm guessing Callaway has a deal with UPS because the shipping label they sent me only showed a cost of like 8 bucks and change. Feels like it would have costed me more to ship it.Β  When the guy I spoke to told me they were sending me a complete driver and I could choose to keep my old shaft or keep the new one, I was actually kind of excited. It was like a little driver shaft lottery. ... I didn't win though. The shaft I got was almost the same as the one I had just the R version instead of the S version. Mine's a 60 gram Hzrdus Black.Β  The other thing I kind of liked about it is that they shipped it the same day I talked to the guy. So it was fast.Β  Lastly, I'm pretty sure the guy I talked to was in California, and the driver definitely shipped to me out of Texas. That's also where I sent it back to.Β  So, overall, really I have no complaints.Β  Β
