Day 44: 2/8/2024

I feel like I had a really good practice session today. 

Went to the range. Used one of their mirrors for rehearsal swings, then hit balls. Then mirror, then hit balls. Rinse and repeat. Really felt like I was starting to really make progress. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 103: 4/8/24 Eclipse Day

Used the ProSendr for some swing drills. Mine is not quite large enough and occasionally came loose. My wrists aren’t that big so I was a little disappointed.

Day 45, 4/09/2024:

Had a range session again today. Started on my priority piece for a while. Then worked on targets. 5 balls with a 6 iron at a 175 yard target. Then 5 balls with an 8 iron at a 150 yard target. Then 5 balls with PW at a 125 yard target. Then 5 balls with a 7-iron at a 165 yard target. Then 5 balls with a 9 iron at a 140 yard target. Finally 5 balls with GW at a 110 yard target. Overall it went very well. 

Then later on I did my overspeed training. I sometimes forget to mention when I do that.

      Day 16 - 45 minutes of range work. Diagnosed and worked on some 100 yd and in wedge direction issues; repeated slowly focusing on hands dropping behind me and feeling the release going to the right. Also worked on full swing weight transfer with good results.

      Swing or Hit?

      By Sclaffer ·

      Thank you for the replies.  On reflection, I need to go away and work on proprioception. For example, I have never had any idea where the club head is. I go for a lesson, the pro identifies a fault and we fix it. Because I do not feel  the difference between the fixed swing and the old swing, I write down what we worked on. However, without any feel or muscle memory of what constitutes a good swing, it is a lottery whether my next round will be good or bad. I contrast myself with my brother in law; who’s swing is truly ugly. He was a cricketer and has great  proprioception, so he is consistent and straight. I just found Andrew Emery video on golf proprioception. Any views on his teaching? Regards

      I'm interested. I always enjoy playing in these events, sometimes I've even played well. ... sometimes not so much.  I do have an event I've been playing for more than a decade and a half that happens the first weekend in May in Las Vegas.  BTW - if any of you are interested in joining me in that event let me know, and I'll get you details.  Here's the thread for that event.
