Day 46: 5/8/23

Upper core balance drills and then putting through a gate. Moved my starting point back to 22” from 11” after missing a couple of four-footers in Saturday’s round.

Day 72 (08 May 23) - Broke away for a solo round today.  They were punching the greens on the front nine so it was a double trip down the back side.  Had some great opportunities to do a reset and stay in the round - for example the first trip around started with a blowup, quad bogie on 10 (the hardest hole of the side).  Followed it with three consecutive pars.  Felt good having a strong reset after a start.  Worked on the set up  - not panicked, even paced in tempo.  Second trip around started par (the same hole that I had a quad on earlier) followed by another par.  Left foot got to really hurting tempo started getting off and wound up with pushes and pulls as body went into protect mode.

Day 21: Did some mirror work today. Checking that my feels are still good for what I'm working on.

Day 1 - Practiced at North Kingstown. Practice green: worked on lag putting, putts from 9-12', chipping from various locations and putting out. Range: pitches, sand shots, alternating 3w off tee with 7i or gap wedge, never hitting same club 2x in a row. All in all good session.

Day 44: May 9

Range session before my lesson (time constraints meant I couldn’t do this the other way around). Really focused on 3-wood, almost “proving” to myself that I can hit good golf shots with it. Granted, hitting good shots on the range is easy. But it also provides confidence and reassurance.
 

Spent some time during my lesson looking at alignment, I wanted to make sure what I was doing was correct and that I understood what I was trying to do. My fairway woods/driver has a closed stance, but it’s not excessive and teaching pro is happy with it for now, whilst encouraging me to practice with a more neutral alignment. I’m also continuing to control my clubpath with a 7-iron and it keeps getting better.

Day 73 (09 May 23) - Hit pitches with the 9i starting at 30 yds up to 50yds.  Focused on grip at setup and follow thru after impact.

Day 16 - Hit a small bucket at the public range. Was too crowded to film but strike quality was very solid focusing on my feeling for priority piece.

Day 47: 5/9/23

Wright Balance exercises followed by putting through gates. Will complete Stack training tomorrow.

Day 190, May 9, 2023

Full swing work in a mirror. Shoulder felt much better today.

[Darkfrog]

Day 3:

Continued practicing backswing. Still feeling stuck between A1 and A2. 

[Bob M]

Day 2 - Practiced short putts this morning using my PuttOut mat. Mainly looking for end-over-end roll, direction and speed on these shorter putts.

Day 4. More tempo work with 6 iron and driver. 

[WillieT]

Day 74 (10 May 23) - Played an afternoon round with son and grandson.  Worked on hitting to center of greens on approach shots, no matter pin placement (Spent last couple of days reading LSW).  Was interesting as they had punched and sanded the greens this week - balls bounce funny and roll lumpily along at times like these.  Still managed to string 4 pars in a row on the front - all GIR w/good opportunities for birdie.  Of late I have noticed that when I don’t see the ball leave the ground I when I strike it, it typically is a topper.  Got to work on that more.

Day 48: Stack Neural training. Hit 104 which is a little slower than my swing speed on the course. Not sure why that is happening. Did not do Wright Balance drills prior to training which might help next time.

[klineka]

Day 17 - Played 18 holes, did a pretty good job remembering my priority piece and the feel with that, iron contact was very solid, absolutely flushed multiple long irons. Didn't score as well as I struck the ball but that was mainly due to a poor short game and some missed short putts.

Day 191, May 10, 2023

Worked on slow motion stuff before heading to the course in the afternoon to watch Nat play. Same stuff, shoulder still feels much better.
