Day 333 - November 27, 2020

Played 18 holes with @Hardspoon today. Back was a little funny, and it was muddy but not wet. Back was fine but my body just wouldn't cooperate and swing. Pissed me off. 🙂

Day 48: went to the range today to do some shaft/club head comparisons. I picked up a 75g Project X Hzrdus Smoke Black 5.5 shaft for my 3 wood. I use a 60g for my driver, which I really like. My current 3W shaft is an Aldila NV 2KXV Blue 70g R shaft. I’ve been having trouble with dispersion with the Aldila. I also have an Aldila NV 2KXV Orange 75g R shaft which is higher launching. I did not do MEVO because this range has horrible balls. But general feel was the PX shaft launched a tiny bit lower, but it felt easier to control with a full swing.

I also put Project X LZ 5.5 shafts in my Mizuno MP59 6 and 7 irons, switching from TT AMT Black R shafts. I play these shafts in my Titleist 716 CB irons. I really like the launch and feel of these shafts. The Mizuno head launches a bit higher but felt excellent. 
 

There is another range that has better balls that I will go to during the week when it’s less crowded and use the MEVO.

Day 334 - November 28, 2020

Worked on the backswing again. Arms feel like they ONLY lift or go up, turn carries them back a little bit. Still feels like, when I do it properly, that the path is out to start and not inward at all.

Day 1

worked on my pendulums and practiced some green reading for 20-30 mins before being picked up for an impromptu 6 holes of golf as my buddies drove by the practice area on their way to their 3rd tee box. I was topping/thinning shots today... which was weird, but hit some great sand shots and putted well (for me).  I tried the “butterfly grip” for my sand shots after watching a video and was pleasantly surprised. It felt awkward as all get-out, but produced some of my best sand shots that I can remember.

Day 335 - November 29, 2020

20 balls downtown after some lessons/juniors. Focused on making sure the arms don’t lift AWAY - the arms LIFT and the turn carries the hands in. I don’t have to take the hands BACK as the turn does that too.

Day 2

went to course for an hour of chip & putt. Worked on Pendulums but was frustrated as this course rolled closer to a 10 whereas the course I went to yesterday was closer to an 8. So my pace was way off and (while a better putter would be able to make those quick adjustments) I really struggled to find the right pace for those 30-40ft lags. 
Chipping was decent.

Day 352

Played 18 today. Really stiff and sore from painting and moving furniture around all weekend, so only carried 8 clubs. Focused on good takeaway/backswing and tempo. Played pretty well, except for 2 holes where I was +7.

    • Most the stuff I found on Instagram and just copy and mix it up. a few of my favorites: Clean>Squat>Press> March Around the body >catch >Squat> press I also hold a the kettle bell upside down with both hands on the handle. Squat when I stand back up I lift the kettlebell up over and behind my head and hold then repeat
    • Not sure this is the best thread but, if the rain holds off, today is my 1st round of the year.  Getting ready I can not find my Shot Scope.  I guess I put it away too well for the winter and thus that is may "Winter Depression".  I'm sure I put it somewhere that made sense at the time.  
    • 44+39 for an 83. Figuring stuff out. 
    • Day 288 - putted on my mat for a while listening to a presentation. Checking my head movement in the mirror, then just focusing on a good stroke.
