"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

[Clemsonfan]

Day 1: 9/13

Stack training tonight, session 21/24 of the Full Speed Spectrum.  112 eSpeed and 315 distance potential.  This session has been a little slower than previous sessions where I had a distance potential of 324. That said, with the other training weights I have either reached my fastest speed for one swing, or the fastest for the series. Still room for progress.

Day 317, September 13, 2023

A lesson was a no-show, so I recorded a video for Mike Carroll and then worked on my own swing for a good 35 minutes.

Day 132 - Range session and then indoor putting tonight.

Driver still needed work but I think I'm making a little progress.

My best driver strikes are when I'm fully committed to making a big turn and feeling rotation and aggressiveness, bad things (low pull hooks and big push slices) happen when I'm lazy and don't turn and just try to smooth something out there. Not really a priority piece, just swing feels to get me through the tournament this weekend. Will start working on making serious driver swing changes after this weekend.

Irons and wedges are really solid right now.

Pitching practice and fit for golf workout.

Day 94 (14 Sep 23) - Solo round at Minnesott.  Course was slow, so I was able to rehearse stepping into the shot to reinforce forward weight shift. Got dicey at times in my body is very hesitant about planting weight on my rebuilt lead foot.  Still managed 6 GIR and a respectable for me 84.

Day 1:

Life has been a whirlwind for the past few years (including a cross-country move in the past 8 months), and I'm finally finding myself with enough free time to enjoy getting back into playing some golf.

Worked at the range on developing some new feels for my continuing work with Key #2 (weight forward).

Day 133 - Hit a few balls then chipped and putted for a while.

Driver was good, got alignment and my swing feel figured out. Centered strikes with no snap hooks.

Irons and wedges remained solid with left side crunch priority piece

Putting and chipping were solid too.

Did The Stack session tonight too.

Day 69: putted on my mat indoors for a while. Focused on set up - hands higher and weight a little more in my heels.

Day 22:

Did some tempo work on backswing/transition, and a bunch of pitching and chipping practice. Then fit for golf workout.

Day 86: Sep 15

Managed to squeeze in 9 holes. Decent enough short game/putting, rest was rather iffy at times. My conclusion at the moment is that because I’ve hit on-course targets this season, I’m almost lacking a “now what?” performance target. That’s creating lax concentration. 
 

Two plans: first, add more range time (and a bit less course time) to improve ball striking and general performance. Second, identify good on-course performance targets to aim for that are challenging but achievable.

Day 70: Did a stack session. Worked in some rehearsal backswings during rest breaks.
