"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

Day 54 - Did the COVID Day 23 practice and worked on a few other things. Filmed a DTL driver shot for my Evolvr instructor. Also worked on center face contact with driver. I noticed if I moved the ball farther forward, say at or past my big toe, I get more hits toward the toe of the club. So I need to set up a bit closer. If I place the ball at my heel, then I can set up a bit more standard, which makes sense.

Day 116 - April 23, 2020

Full swing work again (not!). This is going to be almost everything that I do.

Worked on putting today. Had rain. Found lowering my hands an inch helped quite a bit.

Day 117 - April 24, 2020

Full swing work again. This is going to be almost everything that I do.

Played 18. Got to warm up first for once, so I hit about 20 balls. Played the first two holes with four great shots. Hit many after that, too, but otherwise was a mixed bag. Trending in the right direction, getting the feels down, though.

Day 119 - April 26, 2020

Full swing work again. This is going to be almost everything that I do.

Good day. Played 18, but first got in a good two hours of practice. Tweaked a feel for my pitching and chipping relating to my chest and right hand, and started the full swing off really well, then went sideways for awhile (I was over-doing something), then got it back on track, and actually played better than I practiced because after about four or five holes something clicked pretty well.

    • On the subject of teenagers in professional tournaments there is a kid (Kris Kim) who is a member of my club in England and is at my old school. He’s 16. He’s playing in the pga tour event in Texas this week. Shot 69 yesterday for T31 and is -2 today through 5 holes. T55 and on the cut line. I really hope he makes the cut. Will be awesome.    His dad I believe is a teaching pro and his mum was on the LPGA Tour for a while. 
    • I have two contenders here that stick out to me: In second place, a putt to win the hole playing the 16th hole at Burnham and Berrow. Playing foursomes and the green has a big bank at the front then a flat bit and then it goes up again to a back shelf. My partner had hit our second shot onto the back shelf. We were 2up at the time and he was being a little wobbly so we didn’t want to lose the hole. Our oppo were conceded a 4 and my partner told me to just lag it down there nicely. 20 year old me meant to do that and failed. I hit it a bit hard and it was definitely going to clear the tier and probably run off the front of the green, but it hit the hole right in the middle and went in. My partner was very happy we won the hole but quite upset at my ability to follow instructions.    Number 2 is my most memorable. I was about 16 playing in the junior knockout at my club. We get to the 10th hole - long par 4 and index 2. I didn’t hit a very good drive, hit my second up about 60 yards short and pitched on to maybe 25 feet. I started walking and I got this feeling. I knew I was going to hole it. There was no doubt at all. I’ve never felt like that any other time in my life but this one putt was a certainty. It was February and the greens had been recently hollow tined so they were in awful shape. I didn’t even line it up. I hit my putt and it bumped and bounced all over the place until it went in the middle of the hole. If I could bottle up that feeling and sell it I’d be up there with Bezos and musk. Mind blowing!
    • It's strange how ONE person can be THAT much different/better/whatever than anyone else.
    • I saw a YouTube review on a bunch of ball brands and the Maxfli Tour X did very well in comparison. I bought a sleeve and found them to be excellent in feel and distance. But I’m a lousy golfer so nobody probably cares about my opinion. 😃
