I'm starting to think the true value of the deWiz to me is how many swings I make with it. Its really easy to use with good feedback and minimal fuss. I got up to do a morning stretch/light workout then figured I'd hit a couple balls while coffee was brewing. I ended up making 50 swings (my usual quota for the day) in rapid order. It was borderline like mindlessly bashing through a bucket at the range except for the direct feedback I got on every shot. I wasn't focused on metrics or using the learning stimuli. Just listening to the good/bad chirp. On another note I've been using the favorite feature in the opposite direction. I mark all the bad swings with head scratcher contact so i can compare them to the others.

So far, I find it pretty concise. Don't get me wrong there's a ton of data, but I think the app keeps it pretty focused by only providing practice for a couple of the major metrics -- (Length of Backswing, Tempo, and transition). The focus on those metrics seems to echo their website with the longer, straighter, closer. All the other data metrics seem to be for either building consistency in the main three or diagnosing a fault. I played with focusing on IIdy and IIdx since those were the two metrics I was furthest off normal from and I couldn't make either budge too much. The moment I started focusing on transition and length of back swing both number started to come a bit more in line.

Anyone else suddenly develop an odd fetish for watching pros hands in YouTube swing videos? Wishing someone did a swing tracer for the hands. Happy Thanksgiving all.

I have also found that a harbor freight grab canvas tarp (NOT a cheapo blue one) or one of those square shades sails work really well. I have only tested both through 7 iron so tread carefully. got nervous and bought an actual net after and use the tarp as the backup layer.

I've mostly been still fooling around on Discovery mode. I've played with the other settings, but I'm focused on getting a good baseline for every club in the bag. There's a couple interesting things that I've noticed so far. 1. When I compare video of my swing to a pros swing I always feel like there's too much additional movement. It isn't as simple and clean (obviously) but I didn't really know where that extra movement was or where it started. Now I know. I can look at an entire session of swings and instantly see which swings were better than the others. Both visually with the hand path and in the statistics shown below. It makes for way faster adjustments during practice. 2. I finally see what my instructor would say when he'd say "good swing" when I made poor contact, and let's try do that a bit different on a swing with good contact. Some swings are clearly better visually and in the metrics than others (even if they don't result in good contact). In the session yesterday I hit 21 drivers in a row and made what I would consider good contact through all of them. The last two were excellent for me, carrying just shy of the boundary fence at 250 then bouncing into it with the first bounce. One of them was not nearly as good a swing as the other and had a lot more in common with most of the ones I marked as not so good. Lots of extra hand movement in transition. The good one was one of those swings that felt effortless, and it was much more in line with the range expected metrics the deWiz suggests are the typical numbers. Interestingly there were several swings that I marked as bad that had similar results. I just need deWiz to make a sensor that clamps to the hosel to show club head orientation and position and I'll have all the data I ever need. Quick video on those last two swings: Two different swings with similar results. Both of them were striped, but one was much more efficient than the other. The big knock on both is that according to the app they're both a little too arm dominated with max hand speed coming well inside 12" from impact.

Well, I certainly didn't intend to buy another driver, but here I am. Usual story. Walked into Roger Dunn in search of another 0317 Hybrid, walked out with a used, but mint 0811XT wearing a Tensei CK Orange shaft. I asked them to hold it for me and came back to clean out the older hybrid/driver's collecting dust in the garage to trade and walked out with it for $60. I may have to send Bob Parsons a card. On the GC quad at the shop it out performed my 0211 pretty thoroughly and I have absolutely loved that 0211 since I bought it. It also heavily outperformed it at the range. More penetrating flight with a still decent launch angle.

First impressions wise... So far, the deWiz is pretty slick. I've put in about 100 swings in the garage with it using my practice 8 iron & 50°. I think this establishes a decent baseline for shorter clubs and I would say that the numbers I'm seeing are accurate considering the motion I see from the mannequin is uncanny to what my swing looks like on video. I've loaded the app onto my tablet so I can take video/use the R10 with my phone to compare in future sessions. Here's my swing with a 50° wedge. Stubby back swing with a heavy move toward the ball in transition. Recent swing with a 7I for reference. (This man may have to start wearing suspenders. ) Numbers wise, according to the app, my baseline is actually decent aside from the IDDy statistic. Which is theoretically supposed to be between +30°-55°. I'm way, way, way out of line on that one which lead me to reach out on the private facebook group that is available to those that own the deWiz. They're paying attention and I got a reply from one of the co-founders suggesting that if the number isn't from getting stuck as the app suggests, but might be because of a shorter back swing and slide forward in transition -- which is dead on to what you see in both the path in the app and the video. Pretty neat feedback very quickly. One last thing. Distance wedges is fun and is definitely going to have value, but my suggestion would be to do the first couple sessions without the learning stimuli. I've never thought of my back swing in terms of inches before and it takes getting used to. Enough so that you're going to miss far more of the targets than you get right and getting zapped that many times (even at 3) is frustrating. I will say that it did accelerate the speed at which I learned the length of my back swing.

Wohoo! Mine arrived a day early. Here's a quick unboxing. Now, let's talk about the learning stimuli. A feature heavily hidden behind in app disclaimers. It gives you a bit of a zap in what appears to the same way a bark collar works. While I haven't used it a lot, I'm pretty sure it's going to be effective. At levels 1&2 it's mellow, noticeable, and comfortable. At 3 it's more noticeable. At level 7.... Let's just say that I don't think I'll ever need Level 7.....

Date 11/13/2023 Course Name Spanish Hills Country Club Gross Score 84 Course Handicap 9 Gross Strokes over/under par 13 Net Score to Par 4 Net Score 75 Net Birdies or better 5 Longest Drive 277 Decent day for a five week layoff. Particularly at a course that was new to both @GolfSpy SAM and I. The white tees definitely made it more fun as did the company. We got paired with two great people. The only funny thing about the day is that I find the rating and slope from the white tees to be a bit suspect (68/123, with not a lot of flat lies, narrow fairways, tons of sand, lots of OB, water, super slick greens, etc.) I'm curious if the other CC's in the area think the members are all sandbaggers. 84 from the white tees was a 14.7 differential! It was a lot of fun though. There's not enough target and placement golf courses in SoCal and it's nice to play something where you have to think your way around rather than just blasting away. It was a great day.

I don't know for sure, but given that the demo works on the phone, my guess is that the whole system runs off a very sensitive accelerometer in the watch. Most of the wizardry is in the programming. Given that, I think there's potential for additional sensors to attach to different parts of your body (glove like Hack motion) and you'll have all the data under one system -- without 1 million gizmos. It's enough that I'm going to have the shotscope H4 on the bag and the Dewiz on the wrist for the on course mode.

For those of you that want to play around, you can download the app, set up a profile, and use the app in demo mode. You can make Nintendo wii style swings holding your phone and it will record the swing. I have been playing with this entirely too much while I wait for the actual product to arrive. The most interesting part about this is that you can see all the metrics -- save one -- in your demo swing and start to understand how the product could be really great for improvement. It's a lot of data and I can see how they could potentially expand upon it in a number of ways. The product arrives today, excited to try it out for real.

Continuing my 50-100 swings a day routine in the garage net. I'm trying to make a few adjustments (lower body more involved) while working on solidifying some others (Connection, takeaway, and swing plane) -- all while focusing on repeatability. Adding, fixing, and simplifying at the same time. No small task. I've taken a break from playing for the last month to really focus and it feels like it's started to yield some results in the twilight 4-5 hole practice rounds I've been out for. I think I've gained a better understanding what 'feel's make a decent swing for me and some check points to go back to when I'm feeling out of sorts. Since I've been focused on generating my swing using my bigger muscles, I'm seeing a bump in power (right around up 3/4 to 1 club) and accuracy since my upper body is less geared toward generating head speed and more geared to being in the right place to deliver the club to the ball. That's also yielded a nice jump in good contact since there's been so many low point drill swings. I'm still using a bit more of the face than I want, but I'm making ball first contact closer to the sweet spot than I had been previously. Its also looking as if my stock shape has shifted across the board in my practice rounds. If that ends up holding its going to take some adjustment on my part to shift from aiming for fade and a right miss. I also have my birdie ball mat set up again so I've been doing some putting drills focused on start line using some gates. Also figured this was worth sharing in regards to practicing with purpose. I pulled it off reddit a few weeks ago. Can't remember the details but it I feel like it was from someone that had played some mini-tours and still liked to keep their game very sharp. I think it's a great example of breaking practice down into blocks to work on specific things and making the most out of 1.5 hours of practice rather than just pounding away at a big bucket of balls.

Thanks all. I'm excited to see how this works! Looks to be a very interesting and potentially powerful tool. Can't wait to get into it.

[deWiz Golf Swing Modifier ] – Official MGS forum review by [Syks7/Jonathan Gilliam] About me I’m a now 41 year old architect in Southern California and as of this moment am currently hovering a few tenths on either side of an 11 index. I have a 4 year old little girl, two dogs, and a wonderful wife who tolerates my love of the game. I’m obsessed with every aspect of Golf. It's all I really want to talk about outside of my family and profession and I spend too much ( or just enough?) time on golf related activities. I gravitate toward any information that can teach me more about the game. I also love testing/tweaking/rebuilding new or new to me equipment and can often be found perusing used club bins for the 'next' thing to try out. I love tinkering (learning) about equipment & my swing. My garage has evolved from pure storage into what I've decided to call the "The center for middle aged dudes who can't golf good, but want to learn to do golf and other things good too." About my game For once, I'm reasonably happy with my game. All part of my have more fun goal for the next year. It's at 11ish and relatively easy to maintain in that place. Driving/Approach/Short/Putting are all in reasonable spots. I'm in line with typical statistics for my index for fairways hit, gain some strokes putting, am in line with average up and downs, and am weakest on approach. I need to shave a few things here and there and find a bit more consistency in my approach which is where I'm focusing my practice right now. Lots of drills, lots of swings, lots of video, lots of subtle adjustment. I'm intrigued about how deWiz can help with my practice and whether or not the data can accelerate training. I'm looking forward to wading through all of it to see if I can make adjustments more quickly with quick verifiable feedback. Final Testing Methodology I did get the deWiz out on the course several times, spent a lot of time at the range, and hit quite a few shots inside my garage. Since arriving on my doorstep a month ago I've put in just shy of 800 swings while wearing the deWiz. I'd intended to hit a lot of shots in front of the Garmin R10, but the two just did not get along with each other for a variety of reasons that I put more on the R10s finicky nature. UNBOXING For simplicity’s sake I just recorded myself opening the box. The unit is nicely packaged, but it does include boxes for boxes which while nice on the packaging side seems a bit wasteful to me. First Impressions & Aesthetics Aesthetics 10/10 The Device The deWiz watch unit is very simple and there’s zero fat to trim – it has a charging port, two contacts for the learning stimuli, a single LED, and one large button under the logo. Pair that with a highly adjustable silicone wristband and that's what you get. It's most definitely a tool, not a fashion statement. However, in spite of the utilitarian nature, it still looks and feels nice enough that it didn't stand out when I forgot that to swap it out for my actual watch and wore it to a client meeting while wearing a suit. The App and Web portal Data presentation can be very difficult (particularly with a lot of complex data) and in my opinion deWiz does it exceptionally well. It's all presented in a very easily understood format with question circles that explain what each stat means. The hand path shown on the mannequin does an exceptional job of visually conveying the data. The web portal uses a visually simple plot chart to show your statistics over time.and can also be used to compare your numbers to the Pros (ambassadors) that deWiz has contracted with. It's a cool feature that I wish they would expand upon to allow us to overlay our own swing over the pros. First Impressions 10/10 I really liked the on-boarding process. Once the order was confirmed, I started getting emails from the deWiz team about setting up an account, downloading the app joining the Facebook group, links to the YouTube account, how the device worked, etc. it made receiving the device and getting started pretty seamless. It was also a nice touch for the price point of the item. They want you to get the most out of it. By the time I had the box with the watch in hand I was pretty well versed in how the thing worked. When the package was delivered I filmed the unboxing, put the watch on the charger for a bit, and was swinging with feedback inside 30 minutes. The numbers 19/20 The goal with devices like this (IMHO) is to help you build a more consistent swing. Being able to make the same swing over and over brings with it repeatable results. At a high level deWiz is designed to do exactly this. It claims longer, straighter, closer and the training sections are designed with that purpose in mind with four specific practice sections. To get the most out of the practice modes it helps to know where you're starting from. That's where Discovery mode comes in. This is where you can just pick your club and swing away to set a baseline for your metrics. You don't necessarily have to do this but it's a good spot to learn about the different metrics the deWiz gives you. It's also a great place to find out where you are in relation to the norms deWiz has established for the different metrics. Modes From there it's very easy to jump into the practice modes. Length of Backswing, Transition, Tempo, and Distance Wedges. Each of these modes is (IMHO) directly aimed at meeting deWiz’s claims of Longer, Straighter, Closer. Length of Backswing The easiest of the claims to look at is Longer. This is accomplished in Length of BackSwing mode. This one is basically just physics. At a simplistic level longer backswing = more space for the hands to build up speed before transferring that into the club at release. More hand speed = more club head speed = more ball speed = longer. In reality it's a fair bit more complex than that, but at its core I found this to be true. Something you can see by watching how wide and deep pros like Rory, Bryson, and others who just mash the ball get with their hands. Transition This mode, to me, checks the box for straighter. The goal is to transition from backswing to downswing neutrally and on plane. There's obviously a lot of places the club head can be even if your hands are on a plane, but I've found that I can't swing super over the top or under plane without the transition number going way outside the norms. Tempo The ideal tempo according to deWiz and others on the internet is 3:1 – meaning backswing is 3 times as long as downswing. This ties in with straighter and longer since (for me) getting too quick or too slow in a swing can lead to poor contact. I spent the least amount of time in this mode since I’m pretty consistently between 2.8:1 & 3:1 already. DISTWedges This mode is all about closer. It's all about building feel for exactly how far you're pulling a wedge back. It's about consistency and repeatability. I spent a lot of of time in this mode, but less for touch wedge shots and more for building a very consistent ½, ¾, and full swing. I was focused on hitting a very specific backswing length for each since it became apparent that my ½ swing had a six inch variation on the length of my hand path. The same with my ¾. 25 percent variation on a ½ swing! No wonder my touch game st 25-70 yard game is terrible. My Numbers The hand path that is traced by deWiz is uncanny accurate. It looks exactly like what I see in video of my swing except it's a mannequin on my screen. It also captures one of my typical faults – early extension shanks in painful detail. (Something that IMHO should be getting the negative chirp even if transition, tempo, and length of Back Swing are good) This is an admittedly small sample size since this a fairly quick test, but my Swing is feeling decidedly more repeatable from the perspective of the deWiz. Transition is mostly inside or just outside the norms of 1 to -1, Tempo is good right around 3:1, and I'm very much on plane after having ironed out some swoopy kawaswing hand path issues. Admittedly, it hasn't been a panacea for everything. The connection, sway, and weight transfer faults that rear up every now and then are still there. deWiz is helping in that front, but it isn't quite as clear as its main focus areas. It requires both a deeper dive into the data and a more manual and tedious approach by checking numbers and path after each swing. Here's the same swing in deWiz and on video. And... Here's a shank. One of the few moments where my R10 worked. Take note that the R10 reads this as face open. On Course – my game 9/10 & On Course mode – 3/10. Total: 12/20 I'm doing this section a bit differently since there's really two parts that make up this section. How I'm playing and the actual on course mode. My game Through a combination of focus on transition, tempo, and length of Backswing I've seen a small but noticeable jump in distance off the tee. It's less about max distance and more about seeing higher carry and total numbers more often – both in finding myself hitting from further down the fairway and seeing the ball carry to the end of range targets I usually bounce into. My approach game remains relatively poor, inaccurate, with not great contact. This is somewhat typical for me as I struggle with winter conditions this time of year because of less than perfect contact, but it feels like I'm having a a regression. It feels very much like after a lesson where you're trying to make a big swing change. There are flashes of the change but those moments of brilliance are accompanied by parts of the round where you feel like you can't hit a golf ball anymore. The good news is that when the good strikes come they feel excellent… and they're long. In the last 27 holes I've flown the green more times than I have all year. I'm headed in a positive direction in spite of frustrating moments. High marks for this portion. Maybe I can just chuck my long irons if I hit the 7 iron like this? All but 5 of that 178 is carry. On course Mode It's a neat idea. Collect data about your swings in a USGA complaint method that presents no direct feedback during the round. Unfortunately, it just doesn't work that well. I really wanted to like this feature, but it just is not up to snuff with the rest of what deWiz has to offer. Admittedly it's a relatively new feature, but I just find it too cumbersome in its current form. All of the ease of use with the practice modes goes right out the window and even standing very still I had trouble with getting it to read swings. Combine that with manual data entry for each club and the shot result on every shot and it just takes too much focus away from playing. IMHO, it would be much more effective to just use Discovery mode and play a non-postable practice round. It feels a lot like a beta test. Negativity aside, I do think there's a lot of potential for the mode. It just needs better execution and maybe an understanding that it should work more like an on-course lesson that's not USGA compliant. I'm looking forward to future updates and iterations. THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE INBETWEEN (16/20) THE GOOD I place a high priority on ease of use for my game improvement tools for one reason. If it's simple to use, I'll use it a lot more often. This is one of the reasons that my SC200+ sees far more use than the Garmin R10 I bought to replace it. This is doubly true when it provides rapid feedback. The funny part about this is that if I was going to compare deWiz to an improvement product I would compare it to an R10. It's a sophisticated piece of game improvement tech, its at the same price point, and it provides a mountain of data. It's not the same data, but the concept is similar. Having experience with both the deWiz is the one that I'd give the nod too. Its ease of use cannot be beat. Aside from the on course mode and level 7 on the learning stimuli. . I found it to be a very pleasant, low drag experience that didn't take away from what I was working on even if my practice goal wasn't related to the app. THE BAD On course mode I won't rehash it, but it's not a mode I'll be using very often. Certainly not for 18 full holes. That said, I'm not deducting any more points because of it. The watch band It's good, but it's not replaceable (at all?) in the same way that most other watch bands are. I'm living in fear that I’ll knock it off the charger onto the floor and not notice, only to find it on my bed sans watch band courtesy of my terrier. Lastly it's one size fits all and I'm at the last holes. If you're my size (6'-1 and well built with added fluffy padding)it may not fit you. Proprietary charging cables In a world full of interchangeable charging cables, I question why the decision was made to go with a novel charging cable. It just isn't necessary. THE IN BETWEEN The cost The price is pretty steep and I would argue that you'd be better served spending the money on a series of lessons first. If you have basic knowledge you can get something out of it, but can you get the most out of it? I'm just not sure. I feel like you either need to have a deeper understanding of the swing to get the subtleties out of it or need to be working with a coach that understands what the data means. Full Swing Speaking of swing, while it is a powerful device, deWiz isn’t going to fix everything. Great hand path/tempo/ transition or not you still have to deliver clubface to ball. There were many swings I made with deWiz that look great, in the app, but didn't result in anything approaching a good shot. It's worth bearing in mind that while deWiz is a fantastic tool it's only for part of your swing. Learning stimuli. I’m sure there's some utility in the even faster (mid swing) feedback from it. I'm just not quite sure I want to shock myself to get it. Getting the device to read. In order to get the device to register a swing you have to stand still. The led on the watch will flash green and your phone or tablet will sound an audible tone. I found the to be a much more functional trigger that it was okay to swing. To see the LED you have to be focused on your wrist and not the ball. It will take a moment to get used to if you have a waggle. The app. It's good, just not quite great. There's some UI elements that are brilliant (the circle question mark to understand what each metric does) and others that are head scratchers. Here's a few examples. Changing a club within a session creates an entirely new session composed of a single session. No ability to combine sessions to cleanup the clutter. Changing swings when viewing a previous session is cumbersome. Why can't I swipe left or right to switch swings inside a session? None of this is game breaking, but it is something that could be smoothed out for a better experience. Here's a quick demo of the UI Play it or Trade it 20/20 Play it. The combination of data, instant feedback, and ease of use does it for me. Of the golf gizmos and gadgets I've used this is at or near the top of the pile. The combination of ease of use, direct and effective feedback, and data has produced one of the best game improvement tools I've run across. It isn't a one trick pony and the fact that I can see early extension or upright club in the hand path when that isn't the focus of the device is pretty impressive. The positives far outweigh only the negatives CONCLUSION deWiz is a powerful tool for improvement. There's a lot to like about it and very little to complain about. It gives you immediate and direct feedback that has layers of depth depending on how much you want to get into it. The amount of data you can get from it is pretty amazing, but it is also equally amazing that it's still useful even without getting into all that data. If you've made it this far you know what I think it's best feature is. Ease of use. It's so simple that you'll use it all the time. a the time. I've focused this review heavily on deWiz's utility as a game improvement tool and hopefully, this review has been informative for you. If you think this is a tool that will work for you then I highly recommend it. Its definitely a product that I would purchase. One last FYI, it's worth noting that without the on course. FINAL SCORE 87/100 div widget

A whole month later... For what it's worth I have a SC200+ and an R10. The R10 is fun, but it's touchy about setup to get good numbers. You also need your phone me out to use it properly. I find myself using the SC200+ a lot more, even indoors, just because it's easy to use. Drop it behind the golf ball, turn it on, and go. I also find it to be surprisingly accurate. Even getting into longer clubs. For that reason I'm seriously considering selling the R10, using the VC trade in program, and picking a SC4. It may not have the bells and whistles of the R10, but it looks way easier to use. Based on @revkev's comments I think that's exactly what I'm going to do.

I've been grinding 'after a fashion' for several years -- a single minded pursuit of breaking 80. I put a ton of pressure on myself, and had periods where I just wasn't having fun. When I finally did break 80 I didn't feel joy or accomplishment, I just felt relief. Given that feeling and having a good think for the last month of taking it easy my goals for 2024 are much more simple. 1. Play as much as possible and have fun while I'm doing it. 2. Improve as much as I can while having fun and do so without a focused score or index as a target. 3. Remember to always have fun. 4. Don't sweat the bad shots, doing so makes the game less fun. (The common thread is to enjoy myself )

Might be on a similar page to JDparker today. Dropped by Roger Dunn to find some putting gates for my birdie ball matt and found a mint PXG 0317X gen 4 2-hybrid w/ a Tensei AV raw blue 75. Traded the C722 and $25 for it + bought the putting gates. You'd think I'd know better than to wander into a golf shop by now.

You could always learn to putt righty Also, I find my desire for one to be silly. Stock Silver is the color I would want if I was picking between the three.

https://labgolfoutlet.com/factory-second-putters/blackwhite-link.1/?utm_source=klaviyo&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20231026_blackwhitelink_labrats&_kx=7LA4brwxPd1qkRRwy4gewvu6ndELs5vzcDa-3MLTZVI%3D.WtQZpN&page=1 Like PNW said. Get your wallets ready fellas. This was probably the test run of black and white Links that Sam wasn't happy with the durability on. I'm so tempted. Buy them up to save me!!!!

Great day. Okay score. The fates aligned and I rolled into the little par3/exec course near me to find it deserted. Played the 18 hole par 3 at +9 in two hours. While finishing up with a birdie! I saw that the exec was still deserted so I went out for another 9... finishing at +2 with two three putts. Also finished that in an hour. Its so are to have an open run at a course these days. It was a blast and reminded me of the post great recession days when I was first learning and weekday tee times were wide open after 9:00 A.M. To be clear, I don't miss those days and I'm glad the game is growing, but that certainly was one of the perks. To recap: 27 holes, 3 hours, 1 birdie, 16 pars, 9 bogeys, 2 doubles, 3 FIR, 14 GIR, 4/8 up and down chances.

It might be brand new. Got an email about it yesterday and pulled the trigger.

It's not from their outlet site, but I did snag one of these. Love the original one but could not pass on this.

It's fall garage cleanup day.... And I'm getting an impromptu year in review on my club hoe activities.... and the boxes are just the ones I had shipped and didn't pick up locally. Two more sets of iron heads, various wedge, and wood heads in drawers too. Looks like I'm about to have a nice little iron shaft sale too. The only good news is that the LAB box came for free in testing and it's worth alone is more than what came in all the other boxes. Good hoes know how to find a deal. Time to breakdown the boxes before my better half wanders into the driveway.

Pretty bad yesterday. 47/41 88. Two GIR, some scramble pars, and another birdie to close the round. The only other highlight was that I hit some pretty killer flops yesterday to get up and down from the many many short sidings I left myself. I hit a good drive off #1, hit it to 20 feet with my second, barely missed birdie with my third, tapped in for par, then didn't hit another good tee or approach shot until #10. Tee and approach were as bad as I've had in a while. It was 98% self inflicted and 2% bad luck (some unlucky bounces). On a whim because I've been frustrated with the trajectory of my ball flight I decided to rebuild with the Modus 115's I tested last year. Bring the trajectory down a bit and get a bit more release. It did everything I hoped it would with good shots but obviously I need to put in some more swings with them. I also adjusted the driver for the same reasons. Who knew this could happen? Putting wasn't great either. I feel like I'm too in my head with mechanics right now. Just need to spend some time with the flat stick. The last factor, six rounds in 14 days, a lot of heavy manual labor around the house for two weekends in a row, and a mat in the garage that I hit at least 50 shots off of every day, and a ton of work work during the week. I think I might be a bit worn out. I think I'm going to take a breather (other than putting) for a week or two. We'll see if I have the discipline to hold to it.
