I recently moved close to a golf studio fully equipped with a full gym, indoor chipping and putting areas and most importantly a range equipped with trackman launch monitors.  With the season getting such a late start in MN (we will be hitting off mats for the next month at my local range) I decided to get an introductory membership to use this golf studio's equipment to get ready for my golf trip later this month.  This begs the question, How can I utilize the Trackman to get the most benefit for the next month?

I plan on starting by getting my carry yardages dialed in for all my clubs including the LSW tips on multiple wedge numbers for each wedge.  Outside of that, I don't have any formal lessons with their staff (I could add them if I feel so inclined) but I was wondering how else could I maximize my availability to these machines while I have the time?

The instructor set me up with a My Trackman account, and after perusing the site I found a large number of videos and drills that could be of use.

Any thoughts?  Maybe trying to compare some of my numbers to averages from the site and look for drastic outliers?

Our club has bought a Trackman4 this past winter and I will be using it for a couple of (discounted) hours as well. 

 

My idea is that the first thing I will do is to get my shot zones and carry distances for all clubs and for partial clubs as well for distances under 100 yards. 

That will help me with the GamePlanning and should lower my scores quite a bit. 

 

If I will use it after that then I guess I'll have our club pro watching over me and let him take over. I mean I studied golf quite a bit but I'll let him take over for now.

      I’m thinking maybe Jason Day read my post. He’s sitting a -3 two off Rory and Burns.

      Is it only the weekend broadcasts that have a low commercial count?  I feel like it has been a long while since I last watched a Thursday of the Masters, so maybe my recollection is off.  I feel today has a lot more than four minutes per hour of commercials, and far fewer of the fun stories they tell during the Sunday broadcast.

      I mean, I do slide my hips like 7 inches towards the target before impact. PGA Tour average is like 3 inches. I’m not Scottie Scheffler who can get away with it. 🤣 He slides a ton.  For me, I have to feel like I basically just turn. Though, I’m probably over exaggerating a bit with that one video because I’m really trying to push off with the left leg which sends the hip backwards. Ideally, I would be able to get my weight over to the outside of my left foot at impact and into the finish. It’s probably OK that I can slide about 7 inches as long as it’s like only three by impact.

      Day 32 (9 Apr 26) - Grandson is on spring break- puts in to play 9 at our home course.  Used it to work on top of horizon target point for drives and approaches…i.e. pick landing zone (fairway, green) , an intermediate target point and finally what standout feature do I want to hit “over” on the horizon (tall pine, home top, flag pole).    Better l-r dispersion w/5 of 7 drives in the short grass.  Nice little addition to the pre-shot routine.

      I managed to get the full afternoon to watch (Pacific time, so the ESPN broadcast began at noon).  I just saw the first shot I feel like commenting on:  Adam Scott's tee shot on #16 was really good, especially after having what might be the worst kind of Maltese Falcon on #15.    I didn't used to like him, but the past few years he's grown on me quite a bit.
