Day 28 (6 Jan 23) - A very rainy day, so it was inside today and working with takeaway and follow thru w/old 8i using a miniMag light held in ghe grip shining away from the head (light shining to my abdomen).  Used the beam to work on coming back online and following thru on same - in low speed.  (Got the idea from a video where a guy made a practice device using two miniMag lights and a piece of 3/4” pvc) - interesting concept…

Ping G400 SFT 10deg  R flex
Ping G410 3w R flex
Ping G400 3h and 4h R flex
Taylormade SLDR 5i thru PW graphite shaft R flex
Cleveland CBX wedges - 50, 54, 58 or 52, 58 (depending on my mood)

Day 5: 1/6/2024

I tested out the new eyesight today. I used the putting mirror and did some gate drills on the indoor mat. 

 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 6 - Hit some balls at Golf Galaxy testing out a few wedges. Probably will wait until I can chip outdoors with them before pulling the trigger but really liked how the MG3/MG4 felt/performed.

Hit some 7irons too with the Taylormade P7MC focusing on the new address positioning and hit some really solid shots carrying in the upper 170s.

Day 6: 01/07/2024

I got some really good bead work in today on the indoor putting mat. 
Basically I did an expanded version of the COVID-19 Challenge day 15. 

Tonight if all goes to plan I'll get my over-speed training and my mirror work in as well.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 434, January 7, 2024

Hit balls following JEP for 30 minutes in preparation for the trip tomorrow. Doing it with some speed. It's probably a B- or so right now but that'll be okay.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
