    Got my first hole in one yesterday, playing with son at Yocha Dehe (Cache Creek) in CA. 90% 9 iron, 140 yards, hole 16.

    This had been on my radar to consider buying (not the collegiate version, just the stock retail). If there's a team you like in the offering, or if you can stomach putting on an Ohio State or Alabama mat, this might be a good fit for you. Only $30. The Hole Thing Putt your money where your mouth is. (And no, that's not a typo.)

    I have nothing to add but "get out of town and you'll find better options." I'm in Vegas frequently and have mostly given up on finding quality affordable golf. I will check GolfNow and sometimes find deals that are attractive. So now I mostly just practice when I'm there, and I think Angel Park is one of the better options in the area for range and short game work. I do want to bring the wife out to the executive course one of these days.

    Day 23 - 25 minutes of focused range work. After warmups repeated: 2 balls with exaggerated early weight shift to back foot, prompting earlier release forward 1 ball "normal" but still slower
  20. Chris Brooks
    Day 22 - More mirror work. In-laws in town, too much housework and babysitting to allow for range time. Perhaps tomorrow... The repetition (wall, mirror) seems to be working though.
  21. Chris Brooks
    Day 21 - Just 5-10 minutes of wall and mirror work. Hoping for outside work tomorrow.
  22. Chris Brooks
    Day 20 - 40 minutes of short game work. 20 minutes putting: distance control ladder drill, 10' putting game. More bump and run work with 7 iron, some challenging lie chipping with 58 deg.
  23. Chris Brooks
    Day 19 - 30 minutes of range work. 20 on weight transfer, 10 on 50-100 yard wedge work with a focus on start ball path. 20 minutes of bump-and-run work by green with 7-, 9- and hybrid.
