Day 422, December 26, 2023

Got downtown at 8:30, left at about 1:15. I didn't practice the whole time, but I did for most of it. Mostly full swing, and then recorded a few chipping things.

Day 19 (28 Dec 23) - Last full round of the year.  Course was super soft (2” rain day before) - good time to focus on clubbing up due to lack of roll out on fairways as well as greens.

Day 1: I practice putting every day, but have not had results transfer to the course where I always revert to the claw grip. Given that, I have been only using the claw in practice. Tried to do a Stack putting session, but the app kept telling me I missed the first putt. Gave up on the 10th hole. That said, I was performing at a lower level than other practice sessions.

Also had a Stack speed session earlier in the day. Finished at 113 on a max swing, which is this training segment’s high speed.

Day 34- Mirror work and some indoor putting from 3 and 6 feet.

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