Day 426:

Played 18, working on recentering move. It went okay, but need to get more practice in. Finally got all the gear together to setup Mirrorvision, so I can get some good, immediate feedback.

Day 123: Finally warmed up enough to do outside work. Spent time on my priority piece and filmed 6 iron and driver. Then did SuperSpeed. Heavy clothing is slowing me down though.

DAY 73  February 14th.   Well back in the garage this evening.  Working on more rotation and less sway on the backswing and more rotation and less lunge on the downswing.   Using the Bender Wall idea, which I have nicknamed the "Juan Wall"

Day 427:

Did some warmup with COVID-19 day-5 drills and some full swing 7-irons. Then a superspeed workout (not a very good one). Finished with some mirror work indoors using my mirrorvision setup.

Ok, going to set some recurring reminders in my phone. Lets get this started for 2021! 

Day ONE! 

Went up to Erie, PA for my first lesson of 2021. Worked my weight shift, my club path in the backswing and my set up.

Day 41 (Feb 15 2021) - to soggy to be outside, worked on 1/2 swings with the old McGregor Souchak 7i with wiffle balls down the hall.  Hitting off the carpet (pile is long enough to show impact path of club) in the Master to the bathroom at the other end (no one home but myself).  Mirror drills before to help lock in the swing, hit about 30 balls total (6 groups of five), followed by more mirror work.

Day 124: I sent in a video to my Evolvr instructor and he gave me a new piece to add to what I am working on. I’ve improved rotation but still am raising my upper center before impact. Now I want to flatten the shaft more from A4 to A5. The drill he gave me is take it to A4, then flatten and stop at A5. From there, rotate through impact to A8.

I did this outside and filmed to send back in. Of course it started to rain. I got in video of Driver and 6 iron. I did try a few 60% swings. The feel is almost a looping Furyk swing feel or letting the head fall behind me from transition.

Day 414 - February 15, 2021

15 minutes or so before a student showed up. He was a little late, so the work I was going to do later, I did then.

DAY 74  February 15th.   For those reading this... it is start of the LECOM Suncoast Golf Classic this week.  It is a Korn Ferry tour event.  My team is responsible for organizing and distributing the uniforms for the 300 plus volunteers, and feeding all the volunteers and caddies.  So 6:15 a.m. at the course... and returning home about 4 p.m. for the next 7 days.  Seems like a normal work week before I retired.

So now I am just back from 5 minutes in the garage working on more rotation and less sway on the backswing and more rotation and less lunge on the downswing.   Using the Bender Wall idea, which I have nicknamed the "Juan Wall"
