[Shindig]

Day 80.  Decided to do some quarter and half shots.  Gap wedge, off a mat, into a net, real balls.  Hit a half dozen of each of quarter, half.

Day 1 - restarting this challenge again after letting it lapse a while back.

went to the course this morning and spent 20 mins putting working on bead. Then went to chipping area and spend time on chipping lengths 10-15 yds and shorter pitches or 20-25yds. 

was fun. Wish I could spend more time chipping/pitching. Gonna go out and working on PP (keeping right elbow straight in backswing) for 10mins.

Day 29

Day 46

Played 9 holes at my Home Town course.  Hit some extra balls separate from my main ball and hit some practice shots.  Since the course is pretty unusual with a lot of challenging shots it was nice.  Just nice hitting the ball on the course i grew up on, worked at and my family has been members for well 50 continual years

Hit some 7-irons this evening working on priority piece. Lesson in a couple days, so we’ll see how I did.

Day 35:  Forgot to post my practice yesterday, but its my first missed day.  Been working on my swing basics, and getting a baseline for what I think my swing should be.  So when things go haywire the way they did this week, I'll have something to check back against.  I've also been trying to address what has been going on with my right hand at the top of my backswing.  Think I have some solutions, but time will tell.  Yesterday, was full swing work only with the 8 iron.  Today was mostly 8 iron and ended with the driver.

Day 2 - worked on one of our COVID Challenge drills for keeping the right elbow straight for 8-10mins

[Antneye]

Day 30

same focus and drills as yesterday. Feel good about getting to A2. Started adding in a forward press as my swing trigger. Still struggling with not getting steep at beginning of downswing.

Day 272

Did a superspeed workout and a little more work on priority piece with a 7-iron. Last full swing practice before my next lesson.

Day 12 - Snow kept me indoors, did some hip turn work in a mirror. 

[bweiss711]

Day 36:  Rain all day, so I stayed indoors.  Worked on my grip, did some chipping and putting.

[Shindig]

I wanted to practice putting today, but when I got to the course near me, the practice putting green was closed. 

Day 82 - spent ten minutes indoors with my gap wedge, quarter half and full swings.  Indoors, off a mat, into the net, real balls for quarter and half shots, foam for full (I'm still not convinced it won't go over the net since I don't really control height on my wedges well).

Day 31

Same as prior days. I think I figured out that I am still rolling over my forearms quite a bit in the backswing. Added in focus of getting hands higher and back with rotation of body, not rotating my forearms. It seems to have helped with OTT, but made some horrible contact on quite a few. I’m due for a video check in if I can get out to the range

Day 3

 I have a neighborhood captain’s choice tourn coming up in three weeks and I’ll need to hit  seven 5W’s in that one round (a lot of doglegs which prevent Driver off the tee) so I did my Right Elbow drills with it today and will try to give that club a little more attention that usual prior to a round.
