Day 8 1/9/2024

Wanted to go to the outdoor range today, but the weather really REALLY sucked. 

So, hit some balls in the garage. I focused on holding my finish. 

I also did some putting gate drills during meeting breaks in the office. 

Lastly I did back swing work in front of the big mirrors in the basement with a 7 iron. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Day 9: 1/10/2024

Got a lot in today.
I did my superspeed training this morning. 
Then I got a good solid 20 minutes of work in front of the mirror. I'm really focusing on getting more out of my mirror work this year. Not just going through the motions by really trying to see and feel improvement. Working at the moment on my shoulder turn, climbing my rib up an imaginary wall and keeping my pelvis from thrusting toward the ball on the down swing. This was all practiced in slow motion in front of the mirror. So, overspeed and slow-motion speed today. 👍

Day 10 1/11/2024

Have you ever had one of those days when everything went perfectly? ... Me either.

I just spent 10 minutes on my putting may working on gate drills, because I didn't want to go to bed without getting at least 5 or 10 minutes of golf practice in. 

Hopefully I can do a lot more tomorrow.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      Day 20: 12/30/2024 I've been working on my swing in front of the mirror today. Spent a lot of time at slow speed, mid speed and a couple at full speed. I just came back in from the garage where I practiced my PPJ swing by hitting about 10 balls with the 6-iron into my net.

      Titleist GT280 (Mini Driver)

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      I'm just guessing here. But couldn't Titleist build a mini-driver with a very low center of gravity? Then it would work off the deck. The deep face wouldn't be as problematic.  I'm just spit-balling. I know nothing about this product.

      Titleist GT280 (Mini Driver)

      By saevel25 ·

      Yea, but a deeper face makes it not as useful off the fairway. This is why the driver is not easy to hit off the fairway.  For a select few PGA Tour players, it might be good. The concept of the mini driver has been around for a long time now. Very few ever keep it in their bag. This is a guess, but probably because it sucks off the ground. Nothing here looks like it is any different than the other mini drivers of the past.  I get it from Cameron Young and Will Zalatoris point of view. They hit the ball a long way. The odds they ever hit a 3-wood off the turf is like what, a handful a times a year? They probably would hit it 98% off the tee and 2% off the ground. They probably want something that think is longer off the tee versus their 3-wood because they don't hit the 3-wood off the ground much at all.  This is where I say, Titleist claiming "worked as a go-to club off the tee and off the deck." is more marketing than something that is actually beneficial to a golfer. This is primarily for off the tee.

      One thing I've noticed with Mini Drivers is that the manufacturers seem like they keep their quantities somewhat limited.  The last two TaylorMade Mini's and the Callaway AI Smoke Mini were sold out quickly.
