"5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

Day 7: 2/29/2024

Got a lot of work in today. 
Did my backswing work in front of the mirrors. Then I did some gates on the putting mat using the perfect putt as a target. Simply repeated an 8 footer through the small gate until I got the ball to stop in the perfect putt cup. I did that two times. I also got to the range where I did a little work on my priority pieces, but spent most of my time working on where, not how, I'm trying to gauge where I am right now.

Day 487, February 29, 2024

Worked for only ten minutes today. Not a lot of time. But, they were good, and solid. Faster downswings start tomorrow!

Day 235: did a stack session. Worked on some downswing stuff between breaks - a little hip rotation earlier.

Day 79 (01 Mar 24) - Worked on putting with focus on start line and target point.   Started by putting along the side seam of the rug in the shop (it rolls pretty well) - to keep the ball parallel the entire lenght, then moved to hitting a target point on the rug, even did a little of the Jordan Speith thing of putting "blind", i.e. looking at the target point and not the ball.   Got some really consistent rolls through the target point with good rollout just past (less than 2').

Day 236: played 18 holes. Started off well, finished terribly. But hit a lot of good shots, and my best shots were really good.

Day 488, March 1, 2024

Went downtown and worked for two hours. Starting to add some speed to the downswing move. Got the Quad out for the last little bit… Swing speeds were 93 MPH when I was going nearly full speed (6I), path ranged from +2 to +5.5. AoA was occasionally -5°, but sometimes +1.5°… because I've been doing so much work with my arms I just have to spend a little time on my legwork and collarbones staying "in" the shot a little. I could deliver -4 to -5° pretty consistently when I thought about it a little. Smash was 1.3 on the "bad" ones to 1.4 on the good ones. Launch was a bit high, but that tracked along with the AoA of course. That stuff I'm not worried about. Again, it's just remembering to use my lower body correctly.

Very pleased with today's results. I spent much of the time at 83 MPH or so.

Day 8: 3/02/2024

Did my overspeed training today. 
Also about 10 minutes in front of the mirror working on my backswing. 

Plus some gate drills on the indoor putting mat.

Day 80 (02 Mar 24) - woke to a soggy yard (steady rain overnight), was able this afternoon to get outside to work on some pitch work with the 54, using the tulip tree (about 20' high) as an obstacle to get up and over.  Was a good challenge to used the bounce to not "plow the soft soil" and get the ball up and over the tree.  Solid strikes flew up, and over and close to the target.  Heavy strikes put the ball in the tree.  A good visual drill to really dial in distance (was only hitting about 25 - 30 yards).
