Great putting practice this morning - stroke is feeling really good lately and I think it will really pay off on the course. Keeping track of my stats has really helped and similar to lifting, it allows me to see where I need to improve. 

For those interested, I've started a golf focused IG page where I'll post swing/putting vids occasionally. Be sure to follow me!

Another solid putting session this morning. I'd say that the Scotty has cemented its place in my bag this year. I have the old feelings back and the stroke just feels so comfortable and effortless. In addition to putting, I'm going to place a major emphasis on my short game this year, focusing on ~125 yards and in. I feel like I waste a lot of strokes in this range, especially around the greens and if I want to get better, that needs to change.

Great workout this morning! Barely slept last night and figured it would negatively impact my workout, but I was wrong. They are calling for snow this weekend, so I don't think I'll make it to the range, but I will at least get some more putting practice in. In order to help me with this golf journey, I'm also thinking about signing up for lessons, but I can't decide. I'd like to get out on the course once or twice before deciding though.

Been a hectic week, so I haven't had a chance to practice and I had to shift yesterday's workout to today, but things should be slowing down and today's workout felt great! Continuing to make progress in the gym and the weather finally looks like it might start warming up in a week or two. Can't wait to get out on the course.

Crazy weekend and now playing catch up. Had some great workouts and it finally looks like the weather should be warming up soon, which is nice. I was also able to get in some great putting practice this morning, so I'm happy about that too.

Rough one this morning - just wasn't feeling it after not sleeping well. Still went in and got some great work done, but mentally I wasn't moving as fast as I wanted. As an update, I had filmed some footage of my swing and had a teaching professional look at it and provide some feedback. Overall, I think I am doing fine on the strength side of things, but my hip and shoulder rotation leave a lot of room for improvement so I'm going to add in some mobility movements to help improve that aspect.
