Greetings everyone,

I am a former TST member from 6+ years ago when I played golf in high school. I didn’t play at all through college and graduate school, but have recently gotten back into golf. I currently live in Mississippi, but will likely be moving soon. Just shot the best round of my life (+3; was +4) after only getting back into playing the last month and half (the course was easy and short). I’m excited to get back into golf and hope to be part of TST again!

The biggest thing I am working on now is my short game as I lack confidence and tend to leave chips short. I would estimate my HC to be ~7-10 with most of my strokes lost coming from green side.

I know that feeling, going way too long without playing golf.  Even when it's only a few months, it agonizes me, and then I get back and have trouble convincing myself I'm "really" back this time.  Either way, welcome back.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
