Day 26, May 30. 24 practice balls today; dozen with the 6-iron, slow and usual full swing. Because I wasn't super happy with my quarter and half swings yesterday, I also hit six of each with my UW. What I didn't practice was a high shot that doesn't travel very far (no, I don't mean popping up a drive), and maybe that's something I need to figure out how to hit (probably would be outdoors, not inside). Today's practice was, as many of mine are, indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls. -
Day 270 5-30 Lower arm more infront, not so stuck to side. Getting chest through with some speed. -
A nice consistent road is just as satisfying as a round with a few outstanding shots. nice round. -

I shot an 85 yesterday without any shots that really stood out as spectacular to me. On the first nine, the highest SG shots that didn't originate on a tee were a 22 yard chip from the rough to 6' and sinking a 10' putt (not the same hole). On the second nine, driver 4-hybrid to 17' on a 421 yard par-4 was pretty cool. Sinking a 15' putt for par on the 420-yard par-4 15th was my largest SG of the day (0.98 vs 10 hcp), and that one goes on my acting resume because when it went in, I acted like I wasn't surprised I made the putt. I'm a lot happier with that round than this post indicates. It shows I can play to a pretty good score (a 10-11 handicap shooting 85 on a 70.9 / 125 / 6400 yard is a good performance I think) without having to work miracles.
