You're a beast! Swing for the stars! -
Standing a bit taller and closer to the ball seems to give me a better hand path. I feel like I can go harder at impact without losing my balance. Have missed only three fairways in the last two rounds, and it seems I may have picked up a yard or two compared to this time last year. I mean I'm doing good but now need to ensure I don't lose my grip change. -
Day 22, May 26. I'm at the office now, but this morning, before I left, I timed 15 minutes in the practice room, hitting 6-iron practice shots off the mat with the same routine as yesterday. -
That's a good question; I think I need to review my last several rounds and see where I tend to miss it. I can recollect my last time there, I missed left, but that's because I remember where I nearly chipped in from. The thing is, my "default" trouble shots are low shots I can hit with a 7-iron for about 80 yards, a 5-iron for about 100, or a 4-hybrid for about 130, at least without elevation changes. Now I wonder if I'm, say, 120 yards out from that green, if a low 5-iron that I'd otherwise use to advance the ball when I have a tree to stay under would work. I have a casual round with some friends at that course this weekend, maybe I'll try that shot with an extra ball (I wouldn't try that during a tournament, of course, but a casual round I think it's okay to hit an occasional extra "I wonder what happens if" ball if I can do so without holding up play). That having been said, I am going to have to allow for more draw or fade than before, and that makes sense. I think I miss the green more left or right than short or long. Thank you!

Struggling a bit to wrist flex the right way to square the clubface. Right now, I can’t even exaggerate it enough to hook the ball around an alignment stick. The hip piece is a struggle as well. If I try to get the arm swing speed ramped up then I tend to have older patterns. Mix of either high right hip through impact, early extension. I can do arms down and right hip down more if I swing at like sub 70%. It’s not like I’m not trying to do the wrist stuff. My forearms got the workout today. 🤣 I would like to be able to swing 95% and not hit a big high push cut. It is such a weak shot. I probably should have had the phone camera recording. I just wanted to see if I could hit push draws. I had the alignment stick up as a reference. I will look at some video tomorrow.
