    Spending enough time on the practice green is exactly what I need to do more of. That looks like a really fun hole to tee off with a driver.

    Day 1 8/13/19 An hour on the range with my instructor. I warmed up with my PW and focused on the path from the top of the swing through the downswing. Continued to work on the turn with my lower body still. 4,6,7,9 irons Reviewed photos showing the top of my swing. I got the driver out and hit around 15 balls with it. I was hitting the ball better more of the time today and it was an improvement from my last trip to the range. Played holes 1,3 and 4.

    Day 8 8/8/19 Full dry swings with a 6 iron. Worked on the same issues from yesterday and concentrated on keeping the club head square at impact.

    Day 7 8/7/19 A lesson on the range with my instructor Jerry Bowers. I warmed up with a PW hitting full swings. Switched to a 5 iron and recorded video for a swing evaluation. Reviewed with my instructor and found a few things to work on: Too much leg movement Adding a little more shoulder rotation Weight shift forward and following through after impact I concentrated on these changes and hit range balls with my 4,5,6 and 9 irons. Working on my swing flaws felt strange and shots were very inconsistent (some terrible), but the good ones sailed high and long with straighter divots.

    Day 6 8/6/19 Bump and runs with an 8 iron. It was a mixed bag of shots and I was fairly consistent with my distance control.

    Day 5 8/5/19 Indoor putting on the carpet to targets in the 3' - 6' range. I concentrated on keeping my head still and alignment.

    Day 4 8/4/19 Pitched with my SW to a target 20 and 30 yards away. 30 balls

    Those are great ideas to apply. I would be interested in how you or others notate this. I'll look for that thread. Day 3 8/3/19 Driver takeaway and some swings in my yard without a ball.

    Day 2 8/2/19 I played 9 holes after work and kept track of fairways hit and number of putts. Unfortunately, I didn't hit any fairways. I ended up with a score of 50 and was very happy with that. My goal to break 100 this year is in reach. I need to work on accuracy off the tee.

    Day 1 8/1/19 Chipped to a small plastic bowl 6" in diameter at distances of 15 and 25 feet. I was able start hitting more consistent shots after working on keeping my head still.

    Dirtyburger in Plainview is good.

    Day 4 7/30/19 Pitched 20-40 yards with a SW. I was having trouble controlling distance, but my shots were straight.

    Day 3 7/29/2019 Chipped with my PW to a 2' diameter circle from 5 to 15 feet away.

    Day 1 7/27/19 Pitching with SW to targets located 15 and 25 yards away Warmed up with some practice shots that alternated between distances Made a game to try to get within 5 feet of each target with 10 balls (20 balls total) 1st round 10% 2nd round 20% Day 2 7/28/19 I worked on a drill similar to the linked one below. I did full swings with a 3 wood and tried to skim the ground with it. This is the easiest backyard driver drill we’ve ever seen - Golf Digest This is the easiest backyard driver drill we've ever seen. Jason Guss's drill will show you how to hit up on the ball.
