Downswing stuff. Did much better at slowing down and getting it right.

Day 110 (20 Aug 24) - More work at the net…added ball behind the head of club drill - where you work on takeaway to where your club head knocks the 2nd ball back in the takeaway so that you are not too quick pullling the club up but rather keeping the arms extended promoting a longer arc into the ball in the downswing.  Much more solid ball contact- can feel the thinned vs the fat bs the solid strikes.  Hit a total of about 30 balls over the course of an hour..

Practiced for two hours (was downtown for five, so it may have been three) in the morning. Then played 12 holes at WW in the evening.

Day 111 (21 Aug 24) - More work with the net today, continuing the ball behind the club takeway drill - moving the ball farther back to keep the club lower longer.  Was a good, solid session - starting with 9i and finishing with 5h.  Ball contact is getting more consistent.  Hoping to take this to the course tomorrow - have a 9hole round scheduled with a good friend.

Day 12:

Mostly backswing work in mirror as I think I’m overdoing a feel. Worked a bit on downswing but it was dark didn’t get much in.

Day 35: range night. Hit 40 balls, just focused on start line and shape. Was really good. Then chipped for about 30 minutes, working on mostly lower chips with a few higher shots. A good improvement with a few small tweaks from my Evolvr!

Day 112 (22 Aug 24) - weekly nine hole round with my good friend.  I switched it up, putting the MacGregor blades, Toney Penna persimmons and Spalding putter sand wedge into play.  Shot about what I usually do. The course pro loved that I had them…they are a challenge to hit the sweet spot…

Day 13:

Focused again on backswing tonight. Mostly because I have a good sense of when I do this right, and I can play satisfactory golf this way. Still struggling with downswing change - when I slow down it's decent, but still can't translate to full speed. Hoping to have some daylight practice this weekend with camera and Mevo+ to compare data to prior lesson notes.
