Day 14, June 5th 2023

Range session working on same stuff. Backswing length and right elbow bend. Hands down to right pocket.

First 10 balls were good because I did everything in pieces. Next 10 were meh because I can’t do this at speed yet. Next 10 where good because I went back to stopping at A6 and hitting chips from there.

Day 4

Still working on backswing trying to limit the bend in my elbow/wrist. Found when controlling my elbow more (capped to 90) my wrist was over extending which means far more correction on down swing and more twist.

Breaking it into stages and just holding form to get a proper feel for positioning.

Day 2 - went to the range and did some random practice. Primarily working on driver, but also hit some irons. Driver is a bit of an enigma right now, but everything else was solid.

Day 5

Bit if a niggle in my right side after over practising backswing yesterday so giving it the day to ease. A switch to putting and trying to control pace.

Day 1: 6/7/2023

Okay, I had to take a couple of days off. Pinched a nerve in my upper-glute/lower-back area. (That was a pain in the butt.... See what I did there?πŸ€ͺ)Β 

Yesterday, the nerve let go and I'm right as rain today. So, I did some chipping and putting at the course at which my children were participating in golf camp today.Β 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs.Β 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.Β

    • 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.Β  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.Β  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.Β  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.Β  So, overall, really I have no complaints.Β  Β
