Maybe my expectations are too high, with all this work I would have hoped to be touching single digits by now. Have had days where half a round had me on pace for a sub 80's round and then one blowup swing flaw derails the round. Really just want to get to the point where my good days and bad days are within a few strokes but that might be wishful thinking. Lessons continue.

You’re at a point where technique isn’t failing you, but strategy is.

Learn to play smart to avoid those blow up holes.

A young lady tied for the lead at the Women’s Open hit back to back shanks yesterday.

I just hope I can stay engaged in the round and make a few good shots to enjoy.

Golf is hard.

When I play well, I don’t think about anything. When I struggle, I’ve got a million thoughts and movements.

Maybe, however, expecting yourself to take a good grip, a good stance, good posture, and good aim is realistic.

Focus more on inputs than results. If you get the setup correct, you’ll swing better more often. Scores will go down.

I missed a couple of 4 footers yesterday. One I took a good stroke, but putt did not fall in. The other one I took a putrid stroke. The first is ok, the second needs attention.
