Day 1: Starting up again. Worked for a few minutes indoors on my priority feels hitting a foam ball into my net. Did slower swings. Then did the short game pitch we were taught in Erie last year. Really focused on keeping eye contact on the ball through impact.

Got 20 minutes in before lessons today. GoingΒ to begin working onΒ the downswing, as the backswing is "good enough" for now. The downswing is where I'll make my money.
