"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

[Chris Brooks]

Day 36 - 2026-01-25

Quality 75 minutes at the range. More grip work based on coach feedback, lots of exaggerated moves. Getting more consistent with video self-review. Results good I think but need to keep grinding.

Day 482 - 2026-01-25

Had one lesson today (one earlier yesterday, another moved back a week due to the weather), so I got some swings in and headed home to do some snow throwing.

Day 7 (25 Jan 26) - Caught a few moments break in the cold misting rain (thankfully no ice) to continue the lead arm drill mixed with standard chips/pitches.  Today with the 7i - so more of a bump and run than true pitches in shot types.  Primary focus is on squaring the face using just the lead hand….

Day 165 1-25

Flow drill with arm reconnecting. My main focus was on the flow drill and re-connection, I tried to be intentional on arching wrist in down swing too, although I didn't do as well as I have been with it. Recorded swings and hit a few foam balls. Pause at the top of the backswing.

Day 61: simulator for an hour this morning. Played Harbor Town and shot a respectable 76. Then spent the last 20 minutes playing around with some feels.

Day 23: 2026.01.25

Managed a quick nine holes in about an hour at New Zealand's northernmost course. Was a bit windy to get much feedback on swing changes but good to get out there.

Day 25.  1/25.  Despite a busy schedule today, I was able to do a bit of putting (on a carpet, to a cup) and some chipping and pitching (indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls).

Day 24: 2026.01.26

Got home late so some slow swings outside. Looking to do some filming early this week to see how much I have managed to ingrain the new motion.

Day 166 1-26

Worked on a few things tonight. Rechecked grip and made sure i was OK there. Ive been getting a bit off.  Then worked on arching wrist in downswing. Pause swing at the top.  Hit foam balls.

Day 8 (26 Jan 26) - Braved the cold for an abbreviated session - still working on the lead hand solo drill, mixed with solid two hand pitches.  Club of choice today - Pw for those 25-30 yds chips/pitches.

Day 483 - 2026-01-26

Plenty of putts today in working with a student on his putting.

Day 26, 1/26.  This is a repeat of yesterday (that is, I did the same thing -- I'm not claiming yesterday's practice "counts" for today).  Some putting on the carpet, cup drill, and also some chipping and pitching on the mat.  

[DeadMan]

Day 62: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during rest breaks, working on lowering and then turning in the backswing. 

[ConorHealy]

Day 25: 2026.01.27

Hit ~20 balls at the range working on rotation in backswing. Got some filming done for upload.

[WillieT]

Day 9 (27 Jan 26) - More of the same - started with lead arm only, moved to both hands with 9i.  Wrapped up the day when grandson got in from school with a little closest to the pin pitch shot fun in the backyard.

Day 484 - 2026-01-27

Lots of re-schedules today, so I did some work at home. Winding down my January and going to start working on the downswing soon.
