Day 186 (04 Nov 24) - 

More tempo work today (6i into the net)….did notice that the more I “thought” about it, the less solid the strike.  Side bar - thinking it might be time for a new target flag (the hole 1st appeared Thurs and has now grown to look rather “scowled in appearance”):  IMG_8481.jpeg.4accdc7c74694ec276843968af00c216.jpeg

Finished up with sone bump and runs with the 6i in the backyard…

Day 35 - 2024-11-04

Hit balls with many breaks over the course of two hours. Wrist is feeling a little better, but ulnar deviation still twinges. I did the first two levels of Operation 36 and passed, duh. 25 and 50 yards. Would have been easier if putting was real. 😄

Day 36 - 2024-11-05

Went downtown for a little over three hours. 90 minutes of that was doing other stuff, but I got a little practice in. Some messing with GSPro (v3 is now out) and the settings, some chipping, some little stuff. Not a ton of full swing stuff, and what I did there was mostly backswing stuff.

Day 187 (05 Nov 24) -  Got in some time with the 4&5 hybrids in the backyard - hitting hard foam balls.  Rehearsing preshot routine, focusing on tempo, by reenacting some of the shorter par 4s at my regular course - hybrid off the tee, hybrid approaches.

Day 111: putted on my mat while listening to a conference call. Working on the handle being more upright at address, and feeling the weight a bit more in my heels.

Day 188 (06 Nov 24) - Played the Weds men’s group scramble today as I won’t be able to play Fri.  Our group started on the back nine - shot a PB 38 on the back (7pars and 2 bogies). 2-over at the turn and reality returns with a dbl-par-dbl start.  Settle down to 3 pars, 3 bogies, a tap in birdie that missed eagle by less than 2 inches.   IMG_8495.thumb.jpeg.ec6500676ad6e341ef7c1ef90b6ca074.jpeg
 This was on 7, nice drive with 110 to the flag (this is normally a Pw for me, but the weaker lofts the the DCI irons had me play up to the 9i.  Solid swing and it rolls this close).   I was playing the old DCI 962 irons w/Rifle 6.0 shafts - man those things are still some sweet playing irons. 

Finished with +6 on the front for a 42 and overall score of 80.

      I'm looking forward to it! Funny thing is that I really didn't play much this year either, and no 18-hole rounds. Among other things, I had surgery to repair a hernia, which I know about in June but put off until early September. Mostly played just my Friday night league, although I am playing tomorrow at NKGC. It's winter rates so a flat $39. I'm planning to walk, which I always do for 9, but will likely cut the round short at the 12th hole.
