Day 226: Pulled out my net in my garage and worked on full swing. Filmed the swing to see how it is looking. Still having success with shorter, slower movements. Not yet translating into the full speed swing as much as I want it to, but I'll take some progress.

Day 55- 2/20/24

Finished Stack training program Full Speed Spectrum today. Gained 1 mph over these 24 sessions, and down 3 mph from the completion of my program that preceded my prior program. Last program, also the Full Speed Spectrum, I lost 4 mph.

I had to replace my grip to a Lamkin during my 5th program and never really swung as fast. I am sure the grip wasn’t the issue, but it was a change.

Stack is recommending Full Speed Spectrum again, for the 4th consecutive time, and to begin 4 days.

Day 478, February 20, 2024

Got some work in on the full swing. I'll post a little video in my Member Swing topic. Not going at it super hard, but left knee is 80% or 90%.

DAY 3:  Swing practice in the Golf Garage (52°, PW, 7i) for 30 minutes.  A little fall off from yesterday's gaudy numbers on the shot monitor, which I'm attributing to a little fatigue in the swing.  Post-op rehab continues! ☺️

Day 74 (21 Feb 24) - Plan was to meet up with a friend and hit a few range balls (his first time swinging a club since ‘15 and prior to that another 15 years.  We wound up playing 9 after some range time and had a blast.  It was fun watching someone embrace the game again….

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
