Day 164 - The Stack session and filmed dry swings afterwards. 

Picture is changing. Actually looking forward to the offseason, I feel like I will be able to make some significant progress with my swing.

Day 54:

Worked on full swing and short game. Full swing not great, too dark to really get anything out of it, so moved to short game work for majority of practice today. 

[DeadMan]

Day 103: Went to the range and filmed my drill swings. My posture could still be better. Besides that, looks pretty good. Next step is to not pause between parts of the drill and work on incorporating this into the full swing.

Day 7 (19 Oct 23) - solo round at Minnesott, pace was laid back so I was able to work on short game, making multiple approaches with the wedges, working on putting speed on the greens while waiting for the foursome ahead who were in no hurry nor willing to let me play thru.

Day 353, October 19, 2023

Played 18 holes with @cedrictheo. Hit a lot of low spinners to good effect: one went in, one went to about five feet from a really tough place, etc.

Day 165 - Indoor putting practice reinforcing the setup.

[Darkfrog]

Day 55:

Hit some balls with 7-iron to warm up, and then did The Stack progress check after completing foundation. Moving on to the "Neural Drive" program next based on results.

Day 8 (20 Oct 23) - worked with putter and ball speed, stepping each putt progressively shorter.  Lag the first to a set target up to 10’ away.  Each putt had to finish shorter (shooting for a distance no closer than a foot away from the previous ball finish point), got it right about 60% of the time.  Mechanics side - same tempo, quiet hands (pendulum effect), backswing length-downswing finish same distance from impact point - only variable, length of backswing to control distance.

Backswing work and fit for golf workout. 

[WillieT]

Day 9 (21 Oct 23) - Over / under drill with 7i.  Kept it to an easy pitch speed to reinforce the getting in to out happening in the downswing.

Day 167 - Indoor putting at home. Did the yardstick drill with solid results.

@iacas is there a certain % one should be aiming for when doing the yardstick drill? Like what's a "good" score out of 10?

Day 104: did mirror work today. Checked set up - more knee bend and weight in the balls of my feet. And then worked on feels for getting my hands moving down faster.
