What/How Did You Practice Today?

Now that you are asking, I generally read greens very well, so I don’t work on that so much. What I do work on the most  ,is hitting the ball with the center of the putter, pace and  tempo . Then work on starting my ball out on an immediate target first (16 inches in front of the ball) to the break if any . 

I hope that helps your game 😀

I worked on putting first , 5 footers until  I made 10 out of 10 , 10 footers until I made 5 out of 10 , 20 footers for tempo and direction and a bonus if they went in . 

Then headed to the range and hit wedges up to an 8 iron 

I’m feeling a lot better about my irons !
 

 

Jim I made the mistake of going from mid cavity blades (Taylormade P7 MCs) to  Callaway ST Max  thinking it d be a wiser choice because of “forgiveness “ but they are just too oversized and clanky to  me , so I went back to my mid cavity blades . So I’m trying to get back to playing them 😄

Day 48 (01 Mar 24) - Took the day off from full swings to roll the putter some.  Wanted to refocus on the stroke and pace.  Felt like I've been overthinking the line instead of just putting it.  As a sidebar, did a little of the Jordan Speith thing of looking at the target point and putting "blind".  Amazing just how accurate it can be.

Recently had my regular flex Tensei blue shaft tipped .5” on my driver. I’ve always struggled with hitting off the heel, and this shaft has always felt a little noodley to me. 

So, I finally had a chance to hit/play a sim round with it, and I think it’s a step in the right direction! Still having my best results choked up to the end of the grip, but finally starting to find the center of the face. Could probably take another .5” off the back off the shaft, and would like to take 1” off the back of my stiff Tensei white shaft for comparison.

Averaged 225yds with 96.8mph club speed on range.

9/14 fairways and average 220yd drive during sim round. Ended up shooting 90 (44 out/46 in) at Bay Harbor - Links/Quarry (Par 72, 6228yds, 70.9/143). Played against myself as a “ghost round” beat my last attempt by 19 😅 felt bad for past me.

Driver was all over the place today. I was striking the ball cleanly but coming over the top with my wrists and pulling my drives left which is very unusual for me.

Upside is that I was stroking my short irons (<8 iron) lovely and was throwing darts 140 in on a couple of times through the Top 12 game  on the Top Tracer range app.

Pretty basic, first range session of the season for me today. Mostly going through the motions to get the rust off. I was quite pleased that as soon as I saw a shot start going to the right I was able to make the proper corrections and the next ones were pretty straight. Starting off the season on the correct foot I think.

Day 49 (02 Mar 24) -  woke to a soggy yard (steady rain overnight), was able this afternoon to get outside to work on some pitch work with the 54, using the tulip tree (about 20' high) as an obstacle to get up and over.  Was a good challenge to used the bounce to not "plow the soft soil" and get the ball up and over the tree.  Solid strikes flew up, and over and close to the target.  Heavy strikes put the ball in the tree.  A good visual drill to really dial in distance (was only hitting about 25 - 30 yards).

Today at the range, was an irons only day as the mats were very dingy from the rain overnight. That being said, they just added Trackmans to this range! I was able to practice my iron/wedge consistency there and actually see the dispersion. Can't wait to use the Qi10 there next time and finally be able to give some results (note: I forgot to add in which target and club I was using, too giddy a range FINALLY has a Trackman)

IMG_20240303_162110.jpg.0b5719e2eb105b7c9779f4c80a1fd570.jpg

Then just putted around afterwards for an hour. Too many chippers chippering. Finding a lot of success with the change in grip, especially from 20 ft out. Still having lip-out issues though. Really need to work on driving those ones home.

Took the 4th lesson in as many weeks today. Today was full swings, FINALLY. Started with putting, then chipping, then not chipping and pitching... Building up.

It was an absolute light bulb moment when we worked on tempo and right arm control.

I quite enjoy having someone watch me swing. The feedback has been incredible. On a quest for effortless power and greater consistency, I've another range lesson next week before an on course lesson. I can't wait for that one.

My teacher still seems to really enjoy seeing light bulb moments. Moreso than a good ball flight.

Might need to spend a few hours at the course tomorrow while the crew is on my roof....

Here's to a great week, Spies.

Day 50 (03 Mar 24) - Range war this afternoon as my son and I met up for a couple of buckets of balls . Allowed me to “tinker” with the weights on the Edel SMS 7i (really digging a 6-4-2 (T-M-H) set up.  Worked thru the rest of the bag - using the down range yardage markers as key target points. Wrapped up with some chips and putter work on the practice green.

It’s been a while since I have dropped my practice notes here but I’m settling into a pretty good weekly routine as far as practice goes. Right now my main priority is slowing my tempo a bit in the backswing then exploding through the ball with hips firing. 
Aside from that, I’m in week three of integrating Aim Point Putting and so far that is really helping my game. Lastly, my new focus is going to be on pitch shots 50-80 yards as I seem to encounter those 4-5 times per round right now and it’s not a strength of mine

I've had bad ones in the past. Rather, uncomfortable. It's a job interview the first time out... Basically. Just try and see if it feels right. Did you learn something... Did they listen to you.

I told him that I loved to practice and asked him to prescribe drills that would help me where I'm at. Last week I think I swung the club about twelve times but it was an amazing lesson. That might not sit well for some others.

I asked him for golf lessons not swing instruction, so we're going at it holistically and I think that's what's setting this coach apart from previous ones.

Hope you mesh with the first and if not, hope you find someone with whom you do sooner than later.

Oh the value of good course notes - allows one to objectively review outside the pressure of the round.  Keep it going!  Has helped me to have key focus points in my drills, and on course strategy.

Yeah definitely going to get a feel for the instructor first day. It feels like I have a lot that I want to work on and he will probably notice without me saying much, but won't know until then. Thanks for sharing your experiences, some things to think about beforehand.

A good instructor, and I've had some that were and some that weren't, will watch you hit a few balls and know what needs to be done. Which may mean you don't hit another ball for the rest of the lesson, depending on what it is. She might just go with drills.

Drills would be more than okay with me. My ball striking is not terrible, but self taught, and I do feel like I hit an early plateau without the knowledge to progress. Thanks for the insight!

It's not until this upcoming Sunday Indy! But I will definitely keep you guys posted. I figured it was as good a time as any to start lessons while the testing is going on. Could make for some interesting posts there as well.

A good instructor is going to have the student hit balls after drills. The drill is to engrain a movement pattern change. There is a balance between drills and hitting balls. Usually 5-6 balls with the drill and then 5-10 balls with a golf swing trying to incorporate the movement from the drill. That’s both in a lesson and while practicing post lesson

Hey Spy's...

Just finished my iron fitting..

tried my Takomo’s, titleist t100, taylormade 770 with a graphite shaft, taylormade 790 with a graphite shaft

The fitter moved my Takomo’s 2 degrees stronger and they performed as well as the rest, he wants to do a follow up Thursday at 4, and wants me to bring my miuras, I am thinking my Takomo’s will be just fine.

Lots of work with a 7 iron, back is a bit sore from walking all the balls lol...

Looking forward to thursday. I dont have any of my numbers yet but the good thing was the club head speed and ball speed were very consistent in all the clubs. 

More to come thursday....

Most people are wasting their time going to the golf range.

Most people who go to the range have no clue as to what it takes to develop a competent golf swing, they watch videos and read countless tips and exercises that only make things more confusing and frustrating and a lot of the times make things worse.

Usually 5-6 balls with the drill and then 5-10 balls with a golf swing trying to incorporate the movement from the drill. That’s both in a lesson and while practicing post lesson

The instructor has some short reels on YT and Instagram, and I think this is along the lines of how the lesson goes. If so, it seems like a methodology of teaching I can get behind.

How easy has this been to pickup? /How are you going about learning it? Always been curious about aimpoint, they make it sound like some form of dark magic 🪄 during tour coverage.

I would say it hasn't been too tough to pick up and be decent at it. The only thing I would say that you need is a decent digital torpedo level that you can use to "sync" your feet to. The challenging part is that you get your read but then still have to account for things such as green speed, up/down hill, grain, wind, so your "2 finger break" may need to be played at 2.5 or 3.

I happen to be at a club with pros that are members (Hovland, Chacarra, etc.) use Aim Point so I have taken notes from watching them on the practice greens but I have also verified those notes with an instructor to make sure I haven't misunderstood certain aspects. In my opinion the best part of Aim Point is how much quicker I am able to get a read and hit a putt, no more walking around all angles of the green, and better yet, not more getting tricked by angles behind the green.
