My biggest struggle right now is reading greens. I am hitting putts right where I want but I tend to over read them. Going to spend some time on the practice greens this week.

 

My eternal struggle o the green. I always seem to talk myself into seeing a break and/or over playing it. For some reason I struggle with just firing at the hole. If you figure it out let me know.

AimPoint... trust me, it simplifies the read significantly. Find a good AimPoint instructor and it'll change your game. It changed mine from only reading the instructional material and teaching it to myself

Thanks guys I appreciate it. Im going to continue to work hard and see what I can do. I am currently putting together my tournament schedule for 2018.

 

Trying to find a 3 wood that I can get along with for some reason for the first time I am struggling with a 3 wood.

 

Also trying to decide on which ball to play. I really like the Elixr and they make it in Yellow but I really want to try the new Snell MTB Black before I decide. I think the Elixr will win out because of the yellow. Something about the yellow helps my concentrate on the ball.

This happened today caught a hole out from 77 yards on video. My buddy said he was going to record me because he said I knew I was going to make it and I did. It was to save par after hitting it in the hazard but I couldnt stop laughing.

How much time are you putting into this journey? Per day? What's your practice schedule?

I do something everyday. It's not always practice or playing. I work out 5 days a week 75% golf driven movements. I do SuperSpeed training 3 days a week. I hit balls or play at least 4 days a week. I do putting and/or chipping everyday. I have a birdieball 3x14 dual speed green in my garage that I use for both.

 

I typically hit balls 3 days and play once or twice. I am still really focused on fitness right now and not over stressing my body. I have back issues that I have been able to keep in check. I lost 20lbs and working to lose another 15. I see my coach almost every week to keep an eye on my progress. Once I get my fitness level and new work schedule figured out I will lock down specific schedule. I am also trying to get a specific practice routine when hitting balls.
