Day 9:

Played 18 this morning. Sloppy conditions after overnight rain. I wasn't taking the round too seriously on account of mud, but played okay.  Backswing piece seemed to click nicely for most of the round, setup part not so much.

Day 4 (04 Dec 23) - Played a new course (one of those Golf Moose deals) just over 2 hours from home.  It was an older course so the greens were smallish, the fairways were less than optimal but the bunkers fabulous.  The course played well, the greens were slower as they were cut to winter length.  Great day on maximizing course management as each hole was a new adventure.

Day 9: 12/04/2023:

Went to the outdoor range today and really enjoyed it. The weather was beautiful.

Worked on my priority piece for while with the 6 iron, the 9 iron, the driver and finally with the 3 wood.

After that, I "played" my tournament course on the range. Basically setting targets, putting imaginary boundaries, even making places on the range represent hazards. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      Day 20: 12/30/2024 I've been working on my swing in front of the mirror today. Spent a lot of time at slow speed, mid speed and a couple at full speed. I just came back in from the garage where I practiced my PPJ swing by hitting about 10 balls with the 6-iron into my net.

      Titleist GT280 (Mini Driver)

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I'm just guessing here. But couldn't Titleist build a mini-driver with a very low center of gravity? Then it would work off the deck. The deep face wouldn't be as problematic.  I'm just spit-balling. I know nothing about this product.

      Titleist GT280 (Mini Driver)

      By saevel25 ·

      Yea, but a deeper face makes it not as useful off the fairway. This is why the driver is not easy to hit off the fairway.  For a select few PGA Tour players, it might be good. The concept of the mini driver has been around for a long time now. Very few ever keep it in their bag. This is a guess, but probably because it sucks off the ground. Nothing here looks like it is any different than the other mini drivers of the past.  I get it from Cameron Young and Will Zalatoris point of view. They hit the ball a long way. The odds they ever hit a 3-wood off the turf is like what, a handful a times a year? They probably would hit it 98% off the tee and 2% off the ground. They probably want something that think is longer off the tee versus their 3-wood because they don't hit the 3-wood off the ground much at all.  This is where I say, Titleist claiming "worked as a go-to club off the tee and off the deck." is more marketing than something that is actually beneficial to a golfer. This is primarily for off the tee.

      One thing I've noticed with Mini Drivers is that the manufacturers seem like they keep their quantities somewhat limited.  The last two TaylorMade Mini's and the Callaway AI Smoke Mini were sold out quickly.
