Day 198: Spent about 30 minutes in my garage, hitting balls into my net. Filmed a bunch, trying to see how my feels are translating into my swing. Unfortunately, it looks like I've regressed with my priority piece. Need to focus more on going slower and making sure I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing. When I went to shorter swings really exaggeratingΒ the feels, it looked better, so that's good. Need to be more focused on doing and translating that into the full swing instead of just working on feels in the full swing.

Day 45 (23 Jan 24)Β - Played Harbour Pointe with son this morning.Β  Had a quiet, unhurried round as we were the first out on the front.Β  Course was in decent shape, greens were soft, somewhat squishy when we started - began to firm up some by the time we made it to 15.Β  Good putting day - some really great lags from pretty good distances (80' - 90' - can we say back pin, front of green with ball - all were within a decent one putt finish).Β  Son had some tremendous drives and approaches - a good day that started temp wise in the 30's and finished in the 50's.Β

Day 25 1/24/2024

Every so often I like to take a day at the range and spend the day working on where instead of how.Β 
Today was that day. After warming up I spent the entire time aiming at targets on the range.Β 

I was even able to have a friendly competition with another gentleman as we played closest to the pin with a number of targets.Β

Raining and could not complete a Stack training session. Outed through 50 mm gates and did not hit a gate. That the first time I have ever done that!
