@DaHolla I hope to get to full swing one day.  I'm told I am just doing under half swing, when I try full swing I just hit the ground and miss the ball and look silly.

Slow motion swings with a hybrid followed by distance control putting through 50 mm gates. No gates hit, but only took 20 putts, far short of my normal 51.

Day 93 (3 Aug 24) - Late afternoon session with 8i and hard foam balls - focused on the setup, especially the grip.  Noticed more of a push in shots lately.  First few shots where heavy, got settled and by end of session much better contact and shot shape.  Love these return to basics type drills.

Day 9:  Played 9 and beat my best by 6!  44 on a par 33, not bad for about 4 months of playing.  

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

Day 225: 8/4/24

Range work in preparation for a tournament this weekend in which my partner and I are two-time defending champions. Been battling tennis elbow and shanked way too many this afternoon. Finished with putting practice and putted well for me.

Day 10:  Had an hour long practice playing three holes.  Got some good pointers and practice using my 3w and 5h.  I was then able to finish the rest of the front nine but I didn’t keep score.  

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


Day 18: did a stack session.
