Day 5:

Backswing practice indoors today. Used patio door as a mirror. One thing that really helps me with width and depth is feeling like the left shoulder is what drives the turn while hands/arms are static. So today I sort of pre-set hand/wrist/arm, and then did shoulder turns from there to the top of the backswing.

Day 5- centered turn with forward weight shift.  Form isn’t perfect but hard to have great swing form with kettlebell.  Just working on a more centered turn and forward weight shift (not spinning around my body as I’ve noticed lately)

Day 4 - Heated range today. Worked on driver mostly to keep the impact on the mat to a minimum. Worked on my priority piece with slow swings. Caught myself a few times speeding up too much. But I did not do any full swings. Also, did some pitches to take a break between driver work. Maybe hit, 40 balls in an hour.

Day 17: 12/15/2022

Worked on my priority pieces in the garage today. Block work with a 7 iron. I did switch up the pieces no more than 5 balls and then move on to something else. 

I also did my overspeed training. So I got that going for me.

Day 1 - I decided that the end of the year was as good a time as any to start up again. Will be working on the basics (grip, stance, etc), slow swings and putting inside. Hoping to get to Trackman next week, then 2-3 times before the season starts up again in March.

Today did about 10 minutes of grip, stance and back swing positions, followed by about 10 minutes of 3' putts through a gate.

    • Day 75 (24 May 26) - Rainy day, got a few minutes of flighted pitches w/Pw - focusing on flight window and distance control.  
    • I’m posting my Stack System results here. I’m not sure what to make of the information below, other than I have plenty of room for improvement.  I was going a little to fast at the  start and need to slow down and pay attention to the timer between shots. I hit some balls after this snd the launch monitor showed several were 245 total which I felt may have been a little generous.  They were good shots (for me) but just looking at the distance markers at the range I felt I was shorter than that.
    • Baseline fine, and boy do I have room for improvement.
    • I've watched the video and I like Brendan's presentation. It explains exactly how they arrived at creating the original VisionTrack itself so many years ago.
    • I am wondering if anybody has ever used these and if so did you use the 3.0 or the 1.0.  I think it might help prevent injury in my hips/groin that seems to show up every couple of years.  Would love to hear as well if they restrict swing in any way.   CORESHORTS | The Original CORESHORTS™ Revolutionary X band design mimics the functional anatomy of the body's core area to boost performance | Anti-odor technology prevents the growth...
