Day 21 1/20/2024

The only thing I got in today was my over-speed training.  Where did the day go?

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 11:

Played 18 this morning. A couple sloppy holes, and swing feeling a little “off”, but overall not a bad day.

Day 448, January 21, 2024

Eight minutes after Junior Elite. Will focus a little more on the backswing tomorrow. Wrist conditions HAVE to be good before I worry about the downswing stuff.

Day 22: 1/21/2024

Got some nice mirror work in. 
First with no club, then with a 7 iron, finally with a driver. 

As usual the idea was to focus on my priority pieces. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 44 (22 Jan 24) - putter work, set up mat outside in yard to replicate undulations like seen on course greens -  made for some interesting reads as the carpet I use rolls really quick, so pace was key. IMG_7764.thumb.jpeg.d42e7d193064d145a77cc16a3ed11b67.jpeg

Day 26- 1/22/24

Stack Speed Training session in the Full Speed Spectrum program. Cool night and I fell short of high speeds. I have been slower during this third round of the Full Speed Spectrum. Hopefully, it is due to the cooler weather.

Day 449, January 22, 2024

Backswing stuff today. Mostly refreshing the feeling of the hands going up and out away to start the backswing. Makes the downswing easier. Got there at 7:15, left at 11:00. Good day.

      Day 349 - All this focus on pitching, I decided to work more on chipping today. Given the ground conditions, I'll be chipping more than usual.

      Is This Legal - Marking Ball with Toe of Putter?

      By DaveP043 ·

      I agree.  I once played an inter club match, before the change,  and one of our opponents used a small flat seashell for a marker.  At some point, my partner picks up that shell, thinking it was just a small piece of debris.  An argument ensued, and to be honest I don't remember the result.  But requiring an artificial marker eliminates that kind of misunderstanding.

      Is This Legal - Marking Ball with Toe of Putter?

      By iacas ·

      I think it's just to provide clarity. If you marked your ball with a pebble or a small twig, that's a loose impediment, and someone else could move it. An "obstruction" or a man-made thing, or an artificial thing, isn't a loose impediment.

      Day 243 (2 Jan 25) - Grandson directed drills today - he wanted to hit easy pitches into the holes of the Martin bird house (had it at ground level) - it is doable but it calls for a perfectly executed shot.  He came close a couple of times.  For me it’s about distance control and such.  Drill two - me hit same foam balls to him while he’s in the swing saucer - into a slight wind…now it’s distance control plus anticipating the wind.  A fun exercise - got really close on a number of shots.  Drill three - take his youth Cobra SW and hit flops into to the foam ball basket while he was holding it. Great eye-hand work for him - wedge control for me.  That little wedge  works well.  By the end my junior coach was done and I was too….
