Day 87: 2/27/2023

I didn't do any putting yesterday so I did a bunch today. 
I did bead work on the indoor putting green several times through out the day. Mostly I did mirror drills and gate drills. 

I also leave a 7 iron near the mirror outside my office and I try to get a few quality slow motion swings in every time I pass by. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 88: 02/28/2023

This morning I hit balls in the net in the garage. Focusing on my priority pieces a bit. But also just trying to get comfortable with where my swing is. I'm less than 2 weeks out from a golf trip and I'd like to bring my swing pretty much "as is". The swing is mostly in a good place right now. So, I'm going to spend the next few days just filming and reinforcing so that nothing goes off the rails. 

Later, I happened to be at a customer who's near a range with a putting green so I got out and did some lag putting for a while. It's hard to do any lag putting in the winter. 

And finally, I just did my over-speed training. Even with that, I tried to keep my swings somewhat realistic rather than swinging like an insane war tomato. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 89: 3/1/23

Such a beautiful day outside today I really wanted to get to the range. I failed to do so.

I did get some nice work on my priority pieces in the garage net. 

I also did putting bead drills (Day 15 of the COVID-19 30 day practice plan) at least twice today. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs.

Day 67 - Putting practice today, mainly worked on getting a pre-putt routine down which keeps me moving and minimizes my tendency to second guess myself when I'm over the ball ready to putt.

    • I agree. I would have thought it would save them shipping costs. I will say, I don't really mind. I'm guessing the labor cost to remove the head and repack it is greater than the difference in shipping costs. I'm guessing Callaway has a deal with UPS because the shipping label they sent me only showed a cost of like 8 bucks and change. Feels like it would have costed me more to ship it.  When the guy I spoke to told me they were sending me a complete driver and I could choose to keep my old shaft or keep the new one, I was actually kind of excited. It was like a little driver shaft lottery. ... I didn't win though. The shaft I got was almost the same as the one I had just the R version instead of the S version. Mine's a 60 gram Hzrdus Black.  The other thing I kind of liked about it is that they shipped it the same day I talked to the guy. So it was fast.  Lastly, I'm pretty sure the guy I talked to was in California, and the driver definitely shipped to me out of Texas. That's also where I sent it back to.  So, overall, really I have no complaints.
