Day 364, October 30, 2023

Worked downtown for awhile. Re-arranged the GEARS cameras to find the ball a little more easily, and then hit for 45 minutes. Started with foam balls to really focus on the movement.

Day 1 (30 Oct 23) (Starting again as yesterday (Sunday) did not allow any time to get in practice). Worked on trail hand in the down swing today.  Focused on keeping the wrist quiet and having the palm facing forward at impact postion (no club in hand).  Followed with easy pitches with the Indi 58* using swing thought (hips lead, wrist follows - to keep the hips moving and reducing the flip potential).

Day 365, October 31, 2023

Scary day! Not really. Ha ha. Wrist curl and lift. Just focusing on the one piece. It's funny how "soft" the balls feel (foam AlmostGolf) balls when you're wearing AirPods Pro 2 with noise cancelling on. 90% of feel is sound, and with that, you hear almost nothing. So you feel almost nothing.

    • Yeah, their experiences with the Edel stuff does NOT match my own. Golfers shouldn't need to practice alignment, and golfers can't align a line on a ball very accurately either. Just a bunch of hooey in those posts up there, IMO and experience.
    • The exact same for me. Although I think I was more like 20 inches right of the hole, but yeah, same thing.  I'm telling you, the LAB putter people are a cult. The only thing in golf I've ever seen similar to this is The PROV1 cult. "Raise your right and swear; I will only play PROV1's, no matter if my handicap is north of 30 and I loose 9 golf balls per round." They are like Starbucks fans or I-phone people who refuse to admit the competition might be better as some stuff.  I have very literally heard people at the driving range talking about putters and bringing up "The Revealer". Saying things like "Have you seen how much putter X spins in The Revealer? ... You gotta get a LAB putter."  The other thing I find fascinating is the number of people who say something like "LAB putters are individually custom built, they aren't massed produced. That's why they cost so much." It is as if everyone of them is as unique as a fingerprint. 🤷‍♂️ I gotta give LAB all the credit in the world. Their marketing department has done wonders. Image what "The Hammer" could have been if it had been marketed by LAB.  I haven't liked any of the LAB Putters I've tried. If you do like them, that's great. But please put down the Kool-Aid: Don't join the cult. 
    • I thought this was an interesting discussion about someone asking about how lines impact aiming and LAB creator’s response. They were specifically asking about an Edel fitting. I don’t know what he was expecting posting this in a LAB forum. Why would you want to have to “work” on your aiming or overcome an aiming issue? I go to the eye doctor every year and they’ve said for the past 10 years your eyesight hasn’t changed. Am I missing something when he says it “changes all the time”?    I did an Edel fitting and went from aiming a foot right to spot on. I don’t use a line on the ball any longer and can just step up and putt knowing where I’m looking and where I’m aiming match. It changed my whole perspective on putters. I’d be fearful now of buying a putter just based off what I think looks good because I’d always be worried if I’m aiming where I’m looking.
