Day 665, August 29, 2024

Well, today may be the day my streak ends, except that I might hit some putts tomorrow to get to 666. I don't want to talk about it, but my left thumb is pretty f***ed up right now and I'm contemplating how long it would take me to get good at playing golf lefty.

Day 119 (29 Aug 24) - Played the weekly 9 hole round with my good friend, however I played the other nine on my own.  Focused on reading the break on the greens - trying a little aim point technology.  Very rudimentary in applying l, but I did have much more consistent rolls of the putter….need to explore this more.

Day 43: light day today. Just a bit of mirror work, working on the grip and backswing.

Day 18:

Coming down with a cold, more mirror work tonight.

[DaHolla]

Day 231 - Pitching worked followed by full swings. Still making sure I’m taking a full turn, then making sure I close the face at impact.

Day 666, August 30, 2024

To get to day 666, where this current run will end, I've decided that for me, today, watching some instructional videos in bed while doing little else is sufficient. I'm doing a decent job of not searching the web and playing doctor.

Here we go again.

Day 1: 8/30/2024:
I was at the range today. Worked on mostly hand path. Tends to be something I struggle with off and on and need to continually reinforce. Pretty much worked with every club in the bag. I finished up by hitting the last dozen balls at a number of different wedge targets. It was like a million degrees outside so that was a pretty good day.

Day 44: played 18. Pretty solid and ho-hum 76. Knocked off another hole on the birdie challenge, too.

Day 120 (30 Aug 24) - Friday Men’s golf…had a solid 81 (41 / 40).  It was a solid day of solid pars - had 9 pars, 9 bogies.  Using the Aim Point base principles resulted in solid starts that finished less than 2’ from the hole for stress free pars and easy bogies.  Of course I blew several easy birdie attempts where I choked with the speed. Really liking the early results of the process, will keep working it.

Day 251: 8/30/24

Chipping with an 8-iron and PW followed by putting through 50 mm gates. Worked on backswing and release.

[DaHolla]

Day 232 - Tee time at my favorite course, Bear Dance, this weekend. So how do I start the day? By breaking my toe playing basketball.

I’m optimistic that it’s just a sprain, but still frustrating. I managed to get some chipping in between RICE. 

[Clemsonfan]

Day 252: 8/31/24

Putting through 60 mm gates from 17”. Had to change from 50 mm from this distance. My normal distance is 11”-12”.

[DeadMan]

Day 45: did a stack session.

[WillieT]

Day 121 (31 Aug 24) -  Nip and roll drills with the 50deg wedge.  Set up between 5 and 10 yds from the backyard pins.  Goal was to have the balls finish with 6’ radius of the pin.  Hit groups of six balls - did well as the average finish was well within 2’ of the pins.  Solid confidence builder session.

Day 2: 8/31/2024

Spent 15 minutes in the mirror today with a piece of PVC and my 7 iron. All backswing stuff. Slow motion. 

Spent a little bit of time chipping some ping pong balls around the basement. 

[DaHolla]

Day 233 - Toe felt good enough for some easy swings. Focus was a full turn and an easy downswing.
