Sorry about the Achilles. I ruptured mine (back leg) 4 years ago at about the same situation you have found yourself. It is a significant injury so it changes a lot moving forward. A lot of it will come as you get more confident with your heel is what I keep getting told because my swing speed is about 10 mph slower than it was before. Hope to hear how this lesson goes for you. I’m about to do the same thing this off-season. Good luck!

I say one hundred and one in my head while I swing. Goal is to hit the ball on the last one. helps with tempo and gets me out of the clouded thoughts mid swing. if it’s a bad day I will say it out loud. Helps me hear if I’m putting too much arm in my swing. if your talking too much during the approach. Set up a routine and each movement is assigned a number. Practice it and so that every time. I will get my grip and line up to the ball with my feet together. Count goes: 1. Set up lead foot 2. set up back foot 3. look to the target 4 waggle 5. Relax grip and then 101. this helps a lot but requires some humility on the driving range as you do this out loud haha.
