revkev Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 @pulledabill - first time that I've ever done that - there was no one on the range - beautiful day, people were playing, and I've been walking when playing a lot - so I thought - why not simulate what actually happens in a round - I've done exactly what you described for years and played simulated rounds, I have even sidled over to the practice green and hit a chip or putt in between - this really gave the feel of a regular round - I liked it. Don't know if the opportunity will present itself again but I liked this method of practice a lot.

Moved a bit away from the ball and moved the ball position back a good bit, and “Voila!” I love this game again.

Rickp Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Well I am sorta seriously practicing again since I am retiring at the end of March. I am semi retired now only working 3 days and 30 hrs. But I am seriously trying to get my body back in shape. One tends to gain weight and lose mobility sitting in the cab of a truck 10 to 12 hours a day. I have been doing stretching exercises using 5 lb weights. My back seems ok now so I have been practicing with my older heavy stiff shafted vintage irons and persimmon woods. Yesterday after church I worked on my putting about 2 hours then hit the range and hit 50 balls with the old sticks then walked a 8 club vintage 9 hole round. Today worked on putting about 2 hrs again and the short game for 1 hr then hit 100 balls. Walked 9 holes carrying 13 clubs this time. I have not felt sore or stiff in fact I am getting more limber. It is not so much about improving my game or score it is more about losing weight feeling better and enjoying walking my vintage rounds again. My carry bag is an real old school like a Jones but made out of ballistic nylon and is lighter than a moonlight type bag. I did modify it with a better Nike padded strap but it carries real light. You’re going to enjoy retirement Boss, and getting in shape won’t hurt.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy BIG STU 1 Quote Rick Left Hand, Driver; PXG 0311XF Cypher 50 gr Senior 5 wood; Ping 425, Senior Shaft 55 gr 7 wood; Ping 425, Senior Shaft 55 gr 5 hybrid; Cally Steelhead, Hazardous R2 Irons; Mizuno JPX 923HM 7-GW Recoil 460 F2 Wedges; Titleist S9 54*, Mizuno SW 56* Putter; Waaay too many to list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peaksy68 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Did a little bit of short game practice, which I've sorely neglected lately. Nothing too serious, mainly just getting a bit of feel of ball on the club face. Planning to get out do a bit more real work on the short game Thursday. I've missed not practicing, but work is settling down so I plan to get out and put in some hard work.

juspoole Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Really needing to get to the range or at the very least set up my net in the garage to get my swing back in tempo. I've been down in the basement working on my putting stroke lately. Ensuring that my fundamentals are keyed in and getting the ball started on the correct line I choose. Also, have been trying to have high hands and not let my grip get "stuck" in my waist. Hopefully, it will lead to better speed control on the greens with consistency on my strike and more makes if I'm starting it on proper line.

Peaksy68 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Played a practice 9 this afternoon. Was planning to play a few holes and hit a few random chips on each hole. Got to the first tee and a 60ish year old woman asked me if I could guide her as she had an upcoming match at my course and had never played there before. I was happy to oblige. She was a pretty solid golfer, with a pretty good all round game. Hit it really solid, played percentages well except for one poor decision. Offering course management advice was helpful to my game, a good reminder to focus in on that for every shot. Short game again wasn't great, until the last 2 holes when I relaxed and just committed to the shot instead of over thinking and under committing. Playing a 9 hole 4 club comp tomorrow, should be a bit of fun. sirchunksalot, Kenny B and cnosil 3 Quote 849 Pro Evenflow Riptide 6.0 F8 3 & 5 Woods Project X Evenflow Blue 6.0 TS2 7 Wood Project X Evenflow Blue 6.0 MP18 MMC - Project X LZ 5.5 Zipcore Wedges 50,54,58 - Project X LZ 5.5 MLA Tour Mallet 33" Z Star Pioneer bag buggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickp Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Last week purchased #Edingc SC 200 LM. Finally had a chance to hit a few shots at the local net. Driving Range was full of Snowbirds and I didn’t want to get hit.Easy setup and hit a couple 8 irons and the guy in the next stall was staring at the LM. Explained what it was and he was all over it. Guy is 90 years old. So I did little coaxing and he was into it.We had a lot of fun with it and him. Great morning, hope to see him again. I’m 73 and he’s calling me Sonny! Thanks Cody!

sirchunksalot Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I went out today to work on my wedges, lately I've been either hitting them very heavy or thin. My last time out to the range, I got frustrated on the chipping green and decided to swing the club back, pause, then focus on hitting the ball then the ground. It seems to have worked, as my pitches and chips are a lot more crisp. I also watched a video from TXG about flighting wedges and wanted to see how that would work. Let's just say, I need a lot more practice getting them on line. It's a great video with one of the funniest ball flight graphics I've ever seen. Other than that, my irons were good, except the 5. I was very consistent with strike on it, but they were all off the toe. The driver I only hit four times and it wasn't anything impressive. I really didn't want to spend too much time with it since the intended focus today was wedges.

I've never been good at hitting a lesser lofted club and hitting it lower, but now it's going to become a part of the practice routine.

I'm really enjoying the short game video, it's interesting to see the different things he's doing by just changing how he's setting up. The neural shaft lean, opening the body, and just how they're using the bounce is giving me a lot to think about. I like how they are promoting trying different things to find out what works. We are all different in how we deliver the club to the ball, and I can see where it's important to find what works each person.
