Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year.

Day 3:

Trying to shorten the backswing more  consciously and then working on the impact position and wrist angles. Couple chips to finish.

Day 25: 3/19/2024

I had a busy day. I was only able to get about 10 minutes in on the indoor putting mat.

Did some 50mm gate drills and used the perfect putt and the putting mirror. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 506, March 20, 2024

Ten minutes after a FaceTime lesson and recording some things for CoachNow. Just downswing.

I almost always hit three balls, and then collect them before hitting them again, with a little break in there. It turns out that hitting only 3 to 5 balls at a time is a recommended way to practice, too.

Day 84: 3/20/24

Slow motion swings. Approach shots were underwhelming in last round after hitting 11 fairways but just 5 greens. Striving to manage low point of the swing and improve distance control.

Day 26: March 20, 2024

Got to the range today to hit balls. Worked on my priority pieces first. Then worked through the bag hitting each club while working on my priority pieces. I finished by hitting targets with my wedges. 

Later I got some mirror work in and my overspeed training session. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs.

Day 27: 3/21/2024

I had a great practice session today. Got to the range on lunch. I worked 3 things. One piece of my backswing, one piece with my hips/legs/feet thing, and on my hand path (anyone who knows me knows hand path is a never ending battle for me).

Anyhow, I started with some block practice and a 6 iron. 6 balls working on the first thing, then 6 balls working on the second thing, then finally 6 balls working on the third thing. 

Then I did some random practice. Chose a club at random and worked on 1 of the 3 things using only one ball. Then I used one ball for the other, and then the other. After that I'd choose a different club at random, rinse and repeat. 

As I was leaving the range, one of my range pals challenged me to a closest to the target contest. We hit balls at a half dozen targets from about 65 yards out to 125 yards. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs.
