"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

[WillieT]

Day 101 (22 Sep 23) - Tropical storm coming to town, limited to indoors stuff.  Did step drill in front of the mirror - rehearsed the start of getting weight shift onto lead foot before reaching top of backswing.

Day 90: Sep 22

Played 18 holes and steadily built a good score. A little inaccurate on approach play (but that’s being harsh) and a couple of questionable holes (back-to-back doubles) but otherwise all good. Got this thought process of “relax my forearms” - it’s not even a deliberate thought, just something that seems to be really helpful in delivering a good swing.

Day 29:

Did more "Matt Wolff" backswing stuff, while hitting balls. Also used mirrorvision record / review swings, and of course it looks like a normal backswing unless I do an extreme exaggeration, which is kind of the point. Did a fit for golf workout after the actual golf practice.

Day 3: Stack training Full Speed Spectrum session 24/24. Hit 112 mph my last 2 times and 8/24. Never could get above that #, but did well with other weights. Progress check Sunday and I am playing that afternoon.

As I do every day, I putted for about 45 combined before work and at lunch.

Day 140 - Had a Driver, Wood, Hybrid fitting today, my first fitting of any kind. 

Learned quite a bit and saw some good results with driver carry and lateral dispersion with 3wood and hybrid.

Day 76: Range session today. Filmed and checked where I'm at, which looked pretty good. Then focused on wedge game, as that has been a weakness for me recently. Trying to hit a variety of shots at different targets. Then putting for about an hour. Did a stack putting session, did the pullback drill, and then finished by playing 18 holes of putting (36 putts). Good practice day.

Day 141 - Dry swings in the garage for a bit, fairly sore from yesterday. Like the feelings I have with irons right now and the results that they give me.

Day 77: played 36 holes of mini golf. 

[WillieT]

Day 102 (23 Sep 23) - Worked on 9 to 3 drill (back swing up to 9 o’clock then downswing to 3 o’clock) - keeping arms extended, minimal wrist cock.  Also worked on overall core stretching.  

[Darkfrog]

Day 30:

Stack session, some full swing practice, and some short game practice.

[Darkfrog]

Day 31:

Played 18, not very well though.

Day 142 - Proper practice session with full swing, short game, and putting.

Iron strike was all over the place when I was bouncing between multiple priority pieces. When I committed to my left side bend piece the strike improved instantly. 

Short game was good once I focused on using the bounce vs digging in with leading edge. 

Have new driver shaft that I was fitted for on the way so looking forward to getting that in the bag.

Day 5: Stack training progress check. After 24 sessions, swing speed increased by 2 mph to 108 with Full Swing.

[WillieT]

Day 103 (24 Sep 23) - Worked on weight shift using step drill, followed up with lag putts working on tempo.

Day 328, September 24, 2023

Worked on swings in the mirror while watching the Steelers game.

[DrizZzY]

Played 15 holes at Whispering Woods in the morning. Struggled with my feels for the first few holes, but got it back and kept exaggerating those feels. Had some real good shots after the first few holes.

[DeadMan]

Day 78: did a stack session. Worked in some slow rehearsal swings in the rest breaks. 

[WillieT]

Day 104 (25 Sep 23) - Picked back up with 9 to 3 drill, hitting easy pitches with the PW and GW in the backyard.  Focused on not collapsing the trail arm on the backswing and over cocking the wrist, likewise doing the same in reverse with the lead arm after impact.
