Day 104.  Speed sticks outback tonight during TNF (no alcohol consumed prior to doing the practice).  Outdoors, protocol two.  

I hate the swinging from the knees we do as part of this protocol ... how they make me feel, that sort of thing.  In the past, that's usually a sign that if I keep doing it, I'll improve at golf, so it's worth it.

Day 34 - Played 9. Getting more comfortable with my hip turn, but my contact has gotten really poor. Either a straight pull or an open-faced push. Very frustrated lately.

Day 294

Some shank relief, and a good feeling after practice. Got home earlier than expected from work and recorded some swings in near dark - not great slo-mo quality but helpful. Noticed in face-on video my stance was much narrower than normal, and DTL video looked like my hands were reaching out for the ball or something during downswing. Not clear how to describe it, but looked odd. No idea where this popped up from.

Went back to an old lesson from 2 years ago when I was crippled by shanks, and found a feel that addressed the hand thing, and widened my stance back to normal.

Hit about 50 balls with half swings and no shanks. Then another 10 full swings and no shanks. Kind of dropped the priority piece now, just working on finding the ball again, and will get back to it once my confidence is back.

Leaving for vacation tomorrow after work, so just indoor putting and hopefully a few rounds if I can carve out some time for it.

Day 53

Played 18 today. Some positives and some bad. Could not hit driver or 3W at all, but I really liked how I hit my Hybrid and irons. Good ball flight. The new swing seems to be taking. I’m not reading too much into my driver since it’s mostly been better.
