Day 80:

Worked on priority piece while searching for a feel/thought to keep path more neutral while adding a bit of palmar flexion from transition through impact. Hitting a lot of push draws that miss right, so seeing if I can straighten it out a touch.

Day 61 (2 Jul 24) - Worked with the 54 today and the Divot Board with real golf balls in the backyard.  Focus was on making smooth spinny contact to get the ball to hop and stop "as much as possible" in the backyard grass.  A fun exercise that allows me to work on foot placement, ball placement and keeping a consistent swing path.

Par4Success workout followed by some slow driver swings. Hoping to regain full swing capability over the next 6 weeks.

Day 23:  putting in the house and swinging in the mirror.  It’s 112 degrees today…

I may not hit the ball far, but at least I find all of the pretty flowers. 


Day 81:

Same as yesterday. Worked on priority piece, adding in some palmar flexion and making sure I don’t get too in-out pathy. Also reviewed some prior lesson pieces to make sure I’m not getting off track with old stuff.

Day 177 - A lot of good practice today. Some pitching, a lot of partial swings hitting some key positions, slow swings, and some full swings I was really happy with. 


Getting back on this.

Going to retro the previous couple of days.

Day 1: July 1st, Monday range session working on new priorities.

Day 2: July 2nd, Tuesday range session working on more driver stuff.

Day 3: Today, played 18 holes with my dad. Got around in 3 and a half hours. 😊 Driver stuff is working out well. Irons still need work mix of good and bad.

Day 608, July 3, 2024

Played 18 holes with a student. White tees. Wasn't really working on my stuff, but hit some really good shots. Drove 16 to the pin-high rough 3" from the fringe. Hit some tremendous long irons.

Day 193: 7/3/24

Putting on a ruler followed by putting through gates. Par4Success workout earlier today.

Day 62 (3 July 24) - played weekly 9 hole round with my good friend.  A good round for me with a solid 40 (5 pars, 4 bogies).  3 of the pars were solid up and downs - putts of less than 6’ for par.  Definitely felt like I had short game today…

Day 24:  Indoor putting practice 

I may not hit the ball far, but at least I find all of the pretty flowers. 


Day 82:

Worked on hip movement/engagement in downswing instead of current priority piece. Actually something I was working on somewhat recently, and decided to revisit.

Also worked on partial wedge shots, trying to see if I can lower trajectory.

    • Day 135: worked on putting bead for a while with the 2 cups drill. 
    • Day 211 (29 Nov 24) - Friday men’s round albeit a solo foursome (temps in the 40’s, day after Thanksgiving and the average age closer to 75 - I’m a youngster at 65).  Interesting day of semi-solid play (8 of 18 GIR). Hit all four par threes in one (a first) - parred each; still had a couple 3 putt bogies; and blew up on 3 of the par 5’s (go figure)). The blow ups were some serious tree rattlers - amplifying how I got stupid and greedy instead of smart and content to just get back in the short stuff. 
    • Day 60 - 2024-11-29 Got about 3.5' of snow today, so I was going to go to Golf Evolution, but… I only left the house to throw some snow. Instead, i checked out my putting stroke on HackMotion in the basement. Turns out… it's pretty good, and I'm very in touch with what I'm doing.
    • First time playing this game, Spanish is my native language. It was impossible for me. After 4 worlds I run out of worlds that have the letters I've already found that can be combined with the remaining letters.. just repeated the 4th world to knew the answer. I know the world but it never came to my mind.
