Yeah. It’s the beach club. It got tore up really bad last summer. I hit a ball out of my yard and wanted to cry. Just destroyed the leading edge. So I had to let it go...

 

I just recently had to move my Bridgestone 56° into the firing line. What a great, versatile club though! I currently cary 2 56° wedges. My new Maltby TSW is my primary wedge. Similar grind and slightly better performance,  and my Bridgestone is my bruiser for crap lies and waste area shots.. which we have plenty of here in AZ. Probably won't be long before it looks like yours.

My golf disorder is kicking in.

I gotsta have a brand new bag. Missed out on the first go of the PING Tour Hoofer. On the look out for a ping 3,5,7 wood.

Trying to convince the wife that I should donate the PXG and get a G410.

Mix matched set just doesn’t sit right in my head for some reason.

Doing flop shots within a club length of my 6 foot fence because why not. Did it first try then I decided to video it and first three were a no go so I hit it softer and boom right over, barely but over.

I would probably put out my front teeth if I tried that

You're a brave man, I would probably end up with a serious injury doing that.

I got some fake front teeth from hockey so it's fitting if that would happen

Worked on getting my downswing closer to on plane, trying to pull it down vs swinging out and let my hips/body do the swinging part.  

Also worked on swinging 75-80% to gain control.  

 

Also busted out a 4i, I may put it in the bag for a round.  Seems straighter than the hybrid.  Lower flight but straight, just need to get more reps.  Good shots felt awesome

I gotta say - one thing that's come out of this lockdown is the build-out of my home practice station. It is nice to be able to go hit balls into a net with a personal LM whenever I want. I do it nearly every night and I've noticed a couple of things about my stance, tempo, tension, balance and working on those has really helped. 

Shot a PR of 75 during my last round and all of the nightly practice has made a difference. Would love to see some ranges open but I don't think I'll be giving this up anytime soon.

Possibly June 8th for ranges is the talk on the street these days around here. Need to get to Cassidy clubhouse for some work! No back yard LM for me yet
what was the biggest aspect so far that you have seen that you worked on that’s helped?

We need to get you, Stroker, Boston and I together for 18.  Name the time and place and I'll be there.  Still can't get you guys into RI but I can play is Mass.

That is good to hear.  I really need to focus on practice with my home set up and not screwing around all the time.

I think it's been both my stance - I was bent too far forward and my butt was beyond my heels - a bit more upright is better for me - and my tempo. I didn't really think about it too much and was way off.

Both have allowed me to take a more complete swing and finish in balance with a proper follow-through.

I'm about 5 minutes from Cassidy and go to that part of Medway all the time. I saw them painting the other day and thought it was open...  Hoping it opens soon. Apparently McGolf in Dedham is open now and they're just paying the fine.

Okay, here we go!  I may even game a Top Flite ball to make you guys feel worse when it's all over.

Looks like Friday or Sunday are the days to play.  If any one of you three beat me I'll hook you up in RI when it's allowed.

I play hybrid irons, you think I care about the ball I play?

[B.Boston 8,484]

Just getting caught up I think a match is definitely in order!  @Wedgie would you use a 2019 Callaway Chrome Soft then?
